In this paper, we study the heat kernel associated to the intrinsic sublaplacian on a quaternionic contact manifold considered as a subriemannian manifold. More precisely, we explicitly compute the first two coefficients $c_0$ and $c_1$…
We prove that, for r>2, the r-variation and oscillation for the smooth truncations of the Cauchy transform on Lipschitz graphs are bounded in L^p for 1<p finite. The analogous result holds for the n-dimensional Riesz transform on…
We derive a local Gaussian upper bound for the $f$-heat kernel on complete smooth metric measure space $(M,g,e^{-f}dv)$ with nonnegative Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci curvature, which generalizes the classic Li-Yau estimate. As applications, we…
Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a free cocompact Z^k-action. Let k(t,x,y) be the heat kernel on M. We compute the asymptotics of k(t,x,y) in the limit in which t goes to infinity and d(x,y) is comparable to sqrt{t}. We show…

This paper is devoted to a deeper understanding of the heat flow and to the refinement of calculus tools on metric measure spaces (X,d,m). Our main results are: - A general study of the relations between the Hopf-Lax semigroup and…
For a class of (non-symmetric) diffusion processes on a length space, which in particular include the (reflecting) diffusion processes on a connected compact Riemannian manifold, the exact convergence rate is derived for $({\mathbb E}…
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…
The $L^p$-boundedness for $p>2$ of the covariant Riesz transform on differential forms is proved for a class of non-compact weighted Riemannian manifolds under certain curvature and volume growth conditions, which in particular settles a…
We consider the Hodge Laplacian $\Delta$ on the Heisenberg group $H_n$, endowed with a left-invariant and U(n)-invariant Riemannian metric. For $0\le k\le 2n+1$, let $\Delta_k$ denote the Hodge Laplacian restricted to $k$-forms. Our first…
We give a new proof of a classical result which provides a one-to-one correspondence between positive definite radial kernels on a homogeneous tree and finite Borel measures on the interval $[-1,1]$. Our methods allow us to find a new…
We consider conservative and gradient flows for $N$-particle Riesz energies with mean-field scaling on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$, for $d\geq 1$, and with thermal noise of McKean-Vlasov type. We prove global well-posedness and relaxation to…
In this work we construct the heat kernel of the 1/2-order Laplacian perturbed by the first-order gradient term in H\"older space and the zero-order potential term in generalized Kato's class, and obtain sharp two-sided estimates as well as…
In this paper we show that if $\mu$ is a Borel measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with growth of order $n$, so that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R_\mu$ is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$, and $B\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is a ball with $\mu(B)\approx…

In nonparametric regression, it is common for the inputs to fall in a restricted subset of Euclidean space. Typical kernel-based methods that do not take into account the intrinsic geometry of the domain across which observations are…
Let $X$ be a compact oriented CR manifold of dimension $2n+1$, $n \ge 1$, with a nondegenerate Levi form of constant signature $(n_-, n_+)$. Suppose that condition $Y(q)$ holds at each point of $X$, we establish the small time asymptotics…
In this work we provide a geometric characterization of the measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with polynomial upper growth of degree $n$ such that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R\mu (x) = \int \frac{x-y}{|x-y|^{n+1}}\,d\mu(y)$…
