We study the spectrum of the Finsler--Laplace operator for regular Hilbert geometries, defined by convex sets with $C^2$ boundaries. We show that for an $n$-dimensional geometry, the spectral gap is bounded above by $(n-1)^2/4$, which we…

Let $(E,\mathcal F,\mu)$ be a probability space, and let $P$ be a Markov operator on $L^2(\mu)$ with $1$ a simple eigenvalue such that $\mu P=\mu$ (i.e. $\mu$ is an invariant probability measure of $P$). Then $\hat P:=\ff 1 2 (P+P^*)$ has a…

We prove an $L^p$-spectral multiplier theorem under the sharp regularity condition $s > d\left|1/p - 1/2\right|$ for sub-Laplacians on M\'etivier groups. The proof is based on a restriction type estimate which, at first sight, seems to be…

We establish endpoint estimates for a class of oscillating spectral multipliers on Lie groups of Heisenberg type. The analysis follows an earlier argument due to the second and fourth author but requires the detailed analysis of the wave…

In this paper, we prove a spectral multiplier theorem for sub-Laplacians with drift on M\'etivier groups. We improve the result of [Martini, Ottazzi and Vallarino, Rev. Mat. Iberoam, 2019] in case of M\'etivier groups, by reducing the…
