Nash or Sobolev inequalities are known to be equivalent to ultracontractive properties of Markov semigroups, hence to uniform bounds on their kernel densities. In this work we present a simple and extremely general method, based on weighted…

In this paper, we consider a large class of purely discontinuous rotationally symmetric Levy processes. We establish sharp two-sided estimates for the transition densities of such processes killed upon leaving an open set D. When D is a…

We consider a general class of metric measure spaces equipped with a regular Dirichlet form and then provide a lower bound on the hitting time probabilities of the associated Hunt process. Using these estimates we establish (i) a…

We investigate heat kernel-based and other $p$-energy norms (1<p<\infty) on bounded and unbounded metric measure spaces, in particular, on nested fractals and their blowups. With the weak-monotonicity properties for these norms, we…

We consider necessary conditions and sufficient conditions on the solvability of the Cauchy--Dirichlet problem for a fractional semilinear heat equation in open sets (possibly unbounded and disconnected) with a smooth boundary. Our…

Let $d\ge1$ and $0<\alpha<2$. Consider the integro-differential operator \[ \mathcal{L}f(x) =\int_{\mathbb{R}^{d}\backslash\{0\}}\left[f(x+h)-f(x)-\chi_{\alpha}(h)\nabla f(x)\cdot…

The heat kernel in the setting of classical Fourier-Bessel expansions is defined by an oscillatory series which cannot be computed explicitly. We prove qualitatively sharp estimates of this kernel. Our method relies on establishing a…

In this paper, we study transition density functions for pure jump unimodal L\'evy processes killed upon leaving an open set $D$. Under some mild assumptions on the L\'evy density, we establish two-sided Dirichlet heat kernel estimates when…

We study the radial parts of the Brownian motions on K\"ahler and quaternion K\"ahler manifolds. Thanks to sharp Laplacian comparison theorems, we deduce as a consequence a sharp Cheeger-Yau type lower bound for the heat kernels of such…

We derive concentration inequalities for the supremum norm of the difference between a kernel density estimator (KDE) and its point-wise expectation that hold uniformly over the selection of the bandwidth and under weaker conditions on the…

Off-diagonal upper bounds are established away from the diagonal for the Bergman kernels associated to high powers of holomorphic line bundles over compact complex manifolds, asymptotically as the power tends to infinity. The line bundle is…

We give optimal bounds for the radial, space and time derivatives of arbitrary order of the heat kernel of the Laplace--Beltrami operator on Damek--Ricci spaces. In the case of symmetric spaces of rank one, these complete and actually…

The worldline formalism has in recent years emerged as a powerful tool for the computation of effective actions and heat kernels. However, implementing nontrivial boundary conditions in this formalism has turned out to be a difficult…

We consider the mixed Dirichlet-conormal problem for the heat equation on cylindrical domains with a bounded and Lipschitz base $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a time-dependent separation $\Lambda$. Under certain mild regularity…

Motivated by Euclidean boxes, we consider "thin" annular domains of the form $U=(a,b)\times U_0\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ in polar coordinates, where the spherical base $U_0\subseteq \mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ is an inner uniform domain. We show that,…

We study pairs of Dirichlet forms related by an intertwining order isomorphisms between the associated $L^2$-spaces. We consider the measurable, the topological and the geometric setting respectively. In the measurable setting, we deal with…
