This is first of series papers on new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel $H(x,y,t)$ on a complete manifold $(M,g)$. In this paper, on a complete manifold $M$ with $Ric(M)\geq 0$, we obtain new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat…

We analyze the interior controllability problem for a nonlocal Schr\"odinger equation involving the fractional Laplace operator $(-\Delta)^s$, $s\in(0,1)$, on a bounded $C^{1,1}$ domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$. The controllability from…

We consider the equation $(\partial_t + \rho(\sqrt{-\Delta}))f(t,x) = \mathbf 1_\omega u(t,x)$, $x\in \mathbb R$ or $\mathbb T$. We prove it is not null-controllable if $\rho$ is analytic on a conic neighborhood of $\mathbb R_+$ and…

We consider the control problem of the heat equation on bounded and unbounded domains, and more generally the corresponding inhomogeneous equation for the Schr\"odinger semigroup. We show that if the sequence of null-controls associated to…
