A proper understanding of boundary-value problems is essential in the attempt of developing a quantum theory of gravity and of the birth of the universe. The present paper reviews these topics in light of recent developments in spectral…
The paper is devoted to a local heat kernel, which is a special part of the standard heat kernel. Locality means that all considerations are produced in an open convex set of a smooth Riemannian manifold. We study such properties and…
In this paper we give Hamilton's Laplacian estimates for the heat equation on complete noncompact manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As an application, combining Li-Yau's lower and upper bounds of the heat kernel, we give an…
We use a Harnack-type inequality on exit times and spectral bounds to characterize upper bounds of the heat kernel associated with any regular Dirichlet form without killing part, where the scale function may vary with position. We further…
Robin (or mixed) boundary conditions in quantum mechanics have received considerable attention in the last two decades, in particular, for applications to nanoscale systems. However, their utility has remained obscure to the larger physics…
We address some fundamental questions concerning geometric analysis on Riemannian manifolds. It has been asked whether the $L^p$-Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund inequalities extend to a reasonable class of non-compact Riemannian manifolds without the…
The first heat kernel coefficients are calculated for a dispersive ball whose permittivity at high frequency differs from unity by inverse powers of the frequency. The corresponding divergent part of the vacuum energy of the electromagnetic…
In this note we apply heat kernels to derive some localization formula in sympletcic geometry, to study moduli spaces of flat connections on a Riemann surface, to obtain the push-forward measures for certain maps between Lie groups and to…
We study inequalities related to the heat kernel for the hypoelliptic sublaplacian on an H-type Lie group. Specifically, we obtain precise pointwise upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel function itself. We then apply these bounds to…
We apply the Davies method to prove that for any regular Dirichlet form on a metric measure space, an off-diagonal stable-type upper bound of the heat kernel is equivalent to the conjunction of the on-diagonal upper bound, a cutoff…
In this paper, we first give a direct proof for two recurrence relations of the heat kernels for hyperbolic spaces in \cite{DM}. Then, by similar computation, we give two similar recurrence relations of the heat kernels for spheres.…
This paper is devoted to the determination of the cases where there is equality in Courant's nodal domain theorem in the case of a Robin boundary condition. For the square, we partially extend the results that were obtained by Pleijel,…
We study strong ratio limit properties and the exact long time asymptotics of the heat kernel of a general second-order parabolic operator which is defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold.
We prove equivalent conditions for two-sided sub-Gaussian estimates of heat kernels on metric measure spaces.
We prove that Demailly's holomorphic Morse inequalities hold true for complex orbifolds by using a heat kernel method. Then we introduce the class of Moishezon orbifolds and as an application of our inequalties, we give a geometric…
Aim of this short note is to show that a dimension-free Harnack inequality on an infinitesimally Hilbertian metric measure space where the heat semigroup admits an integral representation in terms of a kernel is suffcient to deduce a sharp…
Using sharp global heat kernel bounds and geodesic comparison geometry, we show that the Dalang condition for well-posedness of the parabolic Anderson model with measure-valued initial conditions, first introduced on Euclidean space, holds…
This paper presents a detailed analysis of the heat kernel on an $(\mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{N})$-parameter family of compact metric measure spaces, which do not satisfy the volume doubling property. In particular, uniform bounds of the heat…
In this paper we extend a gradient estimate of R. Hamilton for positive solutions to the heat equation on closed manifolds to bounded positive solutions on complete, non-compact manifolds with $Rc \geq -Kg$. We accomplish this extension via…
We show that any closed n-dimensional Riemannian manifold can be embedded by a map constructed from heat kernels at a certain time from a finite number of points. Both this time and this number can be bounded in terms of the dimension, a…
