In this thesis we describe a type of metric space called an Euclidean polyhedral complex. We define a Dirichlet form on it; this is used to give a corresponding heat kernel. We provide a uniform small time Poincare inequality for complexes…

We study the existence and uniqueness of the heat kernel on infinite, locally finite, connected graphs. For general graphs, a uniqueness criterion, shown to be optimal, is given in terms of the maximal valence on spheres about a fixed…
Let $d \geq 2$, $\alpha \in (0,2)$, and $X$ be the rectilinear $\alpha$-stable process on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We first present a geometric characterization of an open subset $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ so that the part process $X^D$ of $X$ in $D$…
Applying kernel methods to matchings is challenging due to their discrete, non-Euclidean nature. In this paper, we develop a principled framework for constructing geometric kernels that respect the natural geometry of the space of…

Motivated by the study of relativistic atoms, we prove sharp heat kernel bounds for the Hardy operator $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}-\kappa|x|^{-\alpha}$ acting on functions of the form $u(|x|) |x|^{\ell} Y_{\ell,m}(x/|x|)$ in $L^2(\R^d)$, when…
The formulation of gauge theories on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary leads to partial differential operators with Gilkey--Smith boundary conditions, whose peculiar property is the occurrence of both normal and tangential…
In this paper, we prove two-sided heat kernel estimates on what we call "book-like" graphs. These are graphs consisting of pieces that satisfy the parabolic Harnack inequality that are glued together in a sufficiently nice way over a…
We prove heat kernel bounds for the operator (1 + |x|^{\alpha})\Delta in R^N, through Nash inequalities and weighted Hardy inequalities.
This article deals with 2d almost Riemannian structures, which are generalized Riemannian structures on manifolds of dimension 2. Such sub-Riemannian structures can be locally defined by a pair of vector fields (X,Y), playing the role of…
