This paper presents a simple method to prove the heat kernel asymptotics for the Kodaira Laplacian with respect to the high power of a holomorphic Hermitian line bundle $(L,h^L)$ over a possibly non-compact Hermitian manifold $(M,\omega)$.…

This is the first of two articles in which we define an elliptically degenerating family of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces and study the asymptotic behavior of the associated spectral theory. Our study is motivated by a result from \cite{He…

Let $(X,g)$ be a product cone with the metric $g=dr^2+r^2h$, where $X=C(Y)=(0,\infty)_r\times Y$ and the cross section $Y$ is a $(n-1)$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold $(Y,h)$. We study the upper boundedness of heat kernel associated…

We consider a general Hermitian holomorphic line bundle $L$ on a compact complex manifold $M$ and let ${\Box}^q_p$ be the Kodaira Laplacian on $(0,q)$ forms with values in $L^p$. The main result is a complete asymptotic expansion for the…

The goal of this paper is to study the action of the heat operator on the Heisenberg group H^d, and in particular to characterize Besov spaces of negative index on H^d in terms of the heat kernel. That characterization can be extended to…

Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a free cocompact Z^k-action. Let k(t,x,y) be the heat kernel on M. We compute the asymptotics of k(t,x,y) in the limit in which t goes to infinity and d(x,y) is comparable to sqrt{t}. We show…

We study the heat semigroup maximal operator associated with a well-known orthonormal system in the d-dimensional ball. The corresponding heat kernel is shown to satisfy Gaussian bounds. As a consequence, we can prove weighted $L^p$…

We establish small-time asymptotic expansions for heat kernels of hypoelliptic H\"ormander operators in a neighborhood of the diagonal, generalizing former results obtained in particular by M\'etivier and by Ben Arous. The coefficients of…

For a connected quasi-split reductive algebraic group $G$ over a field $k$, which is either a finite field or a non-archimedean local field, $\theta$ an involutive automorphism of $G$ over $k$, let $K =G^\theta$. Let $K^1=[K^0,K^0]$, the…

In this note we apply heat kernels to derive some localization formula in sympletcic geometry, to study moduli spaces of flat connections on a Riemann surface, to obtain the push-forward measures for certain maps between Lie groups and to…

The main aim of this paper is twofold: (1) revealing a relation between the counting function N(lambda) (the number of the eigenstates with eigenvalue smaller than a given number) and the heat kernel K(t), which is still an open problem in…

The heat kernel on the symmetric space of positive definite Hermitian matrices is used to endow the spaces of Bergman metrics of degree k on a Riemann surface M with a family of probability measures depending on a choice of the background…
