We derive upper bounds for the trace of the heat kernel $Z(t)$ of the Dirichlet Laplace operator in an open set $\Omega \subset \R^d$, $d \geq 2$. In domains of finite volume the result improves an inequality of Kac. Using the same methods…

This is first of series papers on new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel $H(x,y,t)$ on a complete manifold $(M,g)$. In this paper, on a complete manifold $M$ with $Ric(M)\geq 0$, we obtain new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat…

Faber-Krahn functions provide lower bounds on the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian and are useful because they imply heat kernel upper bounds. In this paper, we are interested in Faber-Krahn functions and heat kernel estimates…

We compute low-lying eigenmodes of the gauge covariant Laplace operator on the lattice at finite temperature. For classical configurations we show how the lowest mode localizes the monopole constituents inside calorons and that it hops upon…
