We give an asymptotic expansion of the relative entropy between the heat kernel $q_Z(t,z,w)$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $Z$ and the normalized Riemannian volume for small values of $t$ and for a fixed element $z\in Z$. We prove that…

Upper bounds are obtained for the heat content of an open set D in a geodesically complete Riemannian manifold M with Dirichlet boundary condition on bd(D), and non-negative initial condition. We show that these upper bounds are close to…

We show that, on a complete, connected and non-compact Riemannian manifold of non-negative Ricci curvature, the solution to the heat equation with $L^{1}$ initial data behaves asymptotically as the mass times the heat kernel. In contrast to…

We study the relationship between the geometry and the Laplace spectrum of a Riemannian orbifold O via its heat kernel; as in the manifold case, the time-zero asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel furnishes geometric information about O.…

Let $\mathbf{X}=\{X_t\}_{t\geq 0}$ be a L\'evy process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $\Omega$ be an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with finite Lebesgue measure. In this article we consider the quantity $H (t) = \int_{\Omega}\mathbb{P}_{x} (X_t\in…

In this paper we provide the small-time heat kernel asymptotics at the cut locus in three relevant cases: generic low-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, generic 3D contact sub-Riemannian manifolds (close to the starting point) and generic 4D…

By adapting a technique of Molchanov, we obtain the heat kernel asymptotics at the sub-Riemannian cut locus, when the cut points are reached by an $r$-dimensional parametric family of optimal geodesics. We apply these results to the…

We consider the heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the tubular neighborhood of a closed Riemannian submanifold. We show that, as the tube radius decreases, the semigroup of a suitably rescaled and renormalized generator can…

The spectral heat content of a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ corresponding to a $d$-dimensional stochastic process $X=(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ is defined as \[Q^{X}_\Omega(t)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \mathbb{P}_x(\tau^X_\Omega>t)dx,\] where…

We consider the heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the tubular neighborhood of a closed Riemannian submanifold. We show that, as the tube diameter tends to zero, a suitably rescaled and renormalized semigroup converges to a…

For a sub-Riemannian manifold provided with a smooth volume, we relate the small time asymptotics of the heat kernel at a point $y$ of the cut locus from $x$ with roughly "how much" $y$ is conjugate to $x$. This is done under the hypothesis…

We give large-time asymptotic estimates, both in uniform and $L^1$ norms, for solutions of the Dirichlet heat equation in the complement of a bounded open set of $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying certain technical assumptions. We always assume that…

We consider the entropy of the solution to the heat equation on a Riemannian manifold. When the manifold is compact, we provide two estimates on the rate of change of the entropy in terms of the lower bound on the Ricci curvature and the…

Let $(M^n, g)$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with $Rc\geq -Kg$, $H(x, y, t)$ is the heat kernel on $M^n$, and $H= (4\pi t)^{-\frac{n}{2}}e^{-f}$. Nash entropy is defined as $N(H, t)= \int_{M^n} (fH) d\mu(x)- \frac{n}{2}$. We studied the…

This paper is devoted to study the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the thermoelastic equation on a Riemannian manifold with doundary. By providing a method we can obtain all the coefficients of the…

We study the heat content for Laplacians on compact, finite metric graphs with Dirichlet conditions imposed at the "boundary" (i.e., a given set of vertices). We prove a closed formula of combinatorial flavour, as it is expressed as a sum…

By establishing the intrinsic super-Poincar\'e inequality, some explicit conditions are presented for diffusion semigroups on a non-compact complete Riemannian manifold to be intrinsically ultracontractive. These conditions, as well as the…

We establish an estimate for the fundamental solution of the heat equation on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension at least 3, evolving under the Ricci flow. The estimate depends on some constants arising from a Sobolev imbedding…
