This note is concerned with two families of operators related to the fractional Laplacian, the first arising from the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension problem and the second from the fractional heat equation. They both include the Poisson…

We prove a heat semigroup characterization of the total variation for compactly supported ${\rm BV}$ on arbitrary smooth complete weighted Riemannian manifolds, extending the main result in \cite{GP15}. We then provide an example of a…

This is a collection of notes on the properties of left-invariant metrics on the eight-dimensional compact Lie group SU(3). Among other topics we investigate the existence of invariant pseudo-Riemannian Einstein metrics on this manifold. We…

We establish some important inequalities under a lower weighted Ricci curvature bound on Finsler manifolds. Firstly, we establish a relative volume comparison of Bishop-Gromov type. As one of the applications, we obtain an upper bound for…

We prove that a complete Riemannian manifold with a positive uniform lower bound on injectivity radius and a positive uniform lower bound on Ricci curvature admits an $L^\infty$-close (bi-Lipschitz) smooth metric with two-sided Ricci…

We establish an equivalence between the rigidity of Wasserstein contraction along heat flows and the rigidity of Bakry--\'Emery gradient estimates for Lipschitz functions. Applying results of Ambrosio--Bru\'e--Semola and Han, we show that…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary $\pp M$ and $L= \DD+Z$ for a $C^1$-vector field $Z$ on $M$. Several equivalent statements, including the gradient and Poincar\'e/log-Sobolev type inequalities of the Neumann semigroup…
