In this paper we establish the existence and uniqueness of heat kernels to a large class of time-inhomogenous non-symmetric nonlocal operators with Dini's continuous kernels. Moreover, quantitative estimates including two-sided estimates,…
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…
We approximate the heat kernel $h(x,y,t)$ on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary uniformly in $(x,y,t)\in M\times M\times [a,b]$, $a>0$, by $n$-fold integrals over $M^n$ of the densities of Brownian bridges.…
