The purpose of this article is to establish regularity and pointwise upper bounds for the (relative) fundamental solution of the heat equation associated to the weighted dbar-operator in $L^2(C^n)$ for a certain class of weights. The…
Using the Zwanzig projection-operator formalism, we derive a causal two-point spatiotemporal kernel for heat conduction, defined microscopically as a space-resolved equilibrium heat-flux time-correlation function, that encodes temporal…
In a previous paper we have presented a general formalism for computing Feynman diagrams for scalar fields in curved spacetime at any loop order using heat kernel methods. The main technique used is the expansion of the fully off-diagonal…
We introduce a new method that exploits the combination of the Heat Kernel (HK) and Background Field Method to compute gauge-invariant and gauge parameter-independent quantities such as the effective potential, anomalous dimensions, and…
Given a compact Lie group $G$ and its unitary dual $\widehat{G}$, we establish the weak (1,1) continuity for pseudo-differential operators in the global H\"ormander classes of order $-n(1-\rho)/2$ on $G\times \widehat{G}$. Our approach…
We give the upper and the lower estimates of heat kernels for Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V$, with nonnegative and locally bounded potentials $V$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 1$. We observe a factorization: the contribution of the…
We derive semiclassical periodic orbit expansions for a correlation function of the Wigner time delay. We consider the Fourier transform of the two-point correlation function, the form factor $K(\tau,x,y,M)$, that depends on the number of…
We formulate a new method of performing high-temperature series expansions for the spin-half Heisenberg model or, more generally, for SU($n$) Heisenberg model with arbitrary $n$. The new method is a novel extension of the well-established…
A non-relativistic quantum model is considered with a point particle carrying a charge $e$ and moving on the plane pierced by two infinitesimally thin Aharonov-Bohm solenoids and subjected to a perpendicular uniform magnetic field of…
We study heat kernels of Schr\"odinger operators whose kinetic terms are non-local operators built for sufficiently regular symmetric L\'evy measures with radial decreasing profiles and potentials belong to Kato class. Our setting is fairly…
We review the general heat kernel method for the Dirac spinor field as an elementary example in any arbitrary background. We, then compute the first three Seeley-DeWitt coefficients for the massless free spin-3/2 Rarita-Schwinger field…
We further develop the new approach, proposed in part I (hep-th/9807072), to computing the heat kernel associated with a Fermion coupled to vector and axial vector fields. We first use the path integral representation obtained for the heat…
In this paper we compute the coefficients of the heat kernel asymptotic expansion for Laplace operators acting on scalar functions defined on the so called spherical suspension (or Riemann cap) subjected to Dirichlet boundary conditions. By…
Based on the Mehler heat kernel of the Schroedinger operator for a free electron in a constant magnetic field an estimate for the kernel of E_A is derived, where E_A represents the kinetic energy of a Dirac electron within the…
First, it is proven that the three main operator-approaches to the quantum Liouville exponentials --- that is the one of Gervais-Neveu (more recently developed further by Gervais), Braaten-Curtright-Ghandour-Thorn, and Otto-Weigt --- are…
Being motivated by physical applications (as the phi^4 model) we calculate the heat kernel coefficients for generalised Laplacians on the Moyal plane containing both left and right multiplications. We found both star-local and star-nonlocal…
The study of the heat-trace expansion in noncommutative field theory has shown the existence of Moyal nonlocal Seeley-DeWitt coefficients which are related to the UV/IR mixing and manifest, in some cases, the non-renormalizability of the…
We apply the heat kernel method to relations between covariant and consistent currents in anomalous chiral gauge theories. Banerjee et al. have shown that the relation between these currents is expressed by a "functional curl" of the…
Given a positive definite, bounded linear operator $A$ on the Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}_0:=l^2(E)$, we consider a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}_+$ with a reproducing kernel $A(x,y)$. Here $E$ is any countable set and…
It is shown that the heat kernel operator for the Laplace operator on any covariantly constant curved background, i.e. in symmetric spaces, may be presented in form of an averaging over the Lie group of isometries with some nontrivial…
