The note is dedicated to provide a satisfying and complete answer to the long-standing Gaveau--Brockett open problem. More precisely, we determine the exact formula of the Carnot--Carath\'eodory distance on arbitrary step-two groups. The…
We analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the heat kernel defined by a stochastically perturbed geodesic flow on the cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold for small time and small diffusion parameter. This extends WKB-type methods to a…
In this work, we give a sufficient condition for a step-two Carnot group to satisfy the quasi Bakry-\'Emery curvature condition. As an application, we establish the gradient estimate for the heat semigroup on the free step-two Carnot group…
We give sharp asymptotic estimates at infinity of all radial partial derivatives of the heat kernel on H-type groups. As an application, we give a new proof of the discreteness of the spectrum of some natural sub-Riemannian…
We consider the asymptotics of the discrete heat kernel on isoradial graphs for the case where the time and the edge lengths tend to zero simultaneously. Depending on the asymptotic ratio between time and edge lengths, we show that two…
This paper aims to study the asymptotic behaviour of the fundamental solutions (heat kernels) of non-local (partial and pseudo differential) equations with fractional operators in time and space. In particular, we obtain exact asymptotic…
Upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel on complete Riemannian manifolds were obtained in a series of pioneering works due to Cheng-Li-Yau, Cheeger-Yau and Li-Yau. However, these estimates do not give a complete picture of the heat kernel…
The aim of this note is twofold. The first one is to find conditions on the asymptotic sequence which ensures differentiation of a general asymptotic expansion with respect to it. Our method results from the classical one but generalizes…
In this paper, first we consider the uniform complex time heat kernel estimates of $e^{-z(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}}$ for $\alpha>0, z\in \mathbb{C}^+$. When $\frac{\alpha}{2}$ is not an integer, generally the heat kernel doest not have…
Combining Varadhan's formula, Loewner's theorem with the method of stationary phase, we study the exact formula of the Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance on $2$-step groups. The method is also adapted to determine all normal geodesics from the…
The high temperature asymptotics of the Helmholtz free energy of electromagnetic field subjected to boundary conditions with spherical and cylindrical symmetries are constructed by making use of a general expansion in terms of heat kernel…
We study the large-time behavior of the continuous-time heat kernel and of solutions to the heat equation on homogeneous trees. First, we derive sharp asymptotic formulas for the heat kernel as $t\to\infty$. Second, using them, we show that…
The covariant technique for calculating the heat kernel asymptotic expansion for an elliptic differential second order operator is generalized to manifolds with boundary. The first boundary coefficients of the asymptotic expansion which are…
In sub-Riemannian geometry there exist, in general, no known explicit representations of the heat kernels, and these functions fail to have any symmetry whatsoever. In particular, they are not a function of the control distance, nor they…
We study the heat kernel for a Laplace type partial differential operator acting on smooth sections of a complex vector bundle with the structure group $G\times U(1)$ over a Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary. The total connection on…

We study the geometry associated to the Grusin operator G=\Delta_{x}+|x|^{2}\partial_{u}^{2} on \mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}_{u}, to obtain heat kernel estimates for this operator. The main work is to find the shortest geodesics…
In this paper we study heat kernels associated to a Carnot group $G$, endowed with a family of collapsing left-invariant Riemannian metrics $\sigma_\e$ which converge in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to a sub-Riemannian structure on $G$ as…
We establish precise upper and lower bounds for the subelliptic heat kernel on nilpotent Lie groups $G$ of H-type. Specifically, we show that there exist positive constants $C_1$, $C_2$ and a polynomial correction function $Q_t$ on $G$ such…
We study a spatial asymptotic behaviour at infinity of kernels $p_t(x)$ for convolution semigroups of nonlocal pseudo-differential operators. We give general and sharp sufficient conditions under which the limits $$ \lim_{r \to \infty}…
