We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are H\"older continuous locally in space and time. This is done via local…

For incomplete sub-Riemannian manifolds, and for an associated second-order hypoelliptic operator, which need not be symmetric, we identify two alternative conditions for the validity of Gaussian-type upper bounds on heat kernels and…

It is well known that Nash-type inequalities for symmetric Dirichlet forms are equivalent to on-diagonal heat kernel upper bounds for the associated symmetric Markov semigroups. In this paper, we show that both imply (and hence are…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a $RCD^\ast(K, N)$ space with $K\in \mathbb{R}$ and $N\in [1,\infty]$. For $N\in [1,\infty)$, we derive the upper and lower bounds of the heat kernel on $(X,d,\mu)$ by applying the parabolic Harnack inequality and the…

Sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimates are typical of fractal graphs. We show that sub-Gaussian estimates on graphs follow from a Poincar\'e inequality, capacity upper bound, and a slow volume growth condition. An important feature of this work…

We study the geometry associated to the Grusin operator G=\Delta_{x}+|x|^{2}\partial_{u}^{2} on \mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}_{u}, to obtain heat kernel estimates for this operator. The main work is to find the shortest geodesics…
