Davies' method of perturbed semigroups is a classical technique to obtain off-diagonal upper bounds on the heat kernel. However Davies' method does not apply to anomalous diffusions due to the singularity of energy measures. In this note,…
Iterative construction of a Sierpinski carpet or sponge is shown to be a critical phenomenon analogous to uncorrelated percolation. Critical exponents are derived or calculated (by random walks over the carpet or sponge at infinite…
Anomalous diffusion and non-Gaussian statistics are detected experimentally in a two-dimensional driven-dissipative system. A single-layer dusty plasma suspension with a Yukawa interaction and frictional dissipation is heated with laser…
For incomplete sub-Riemannian manifolds, and for an associated second-order hypoelliptic operator, which need not be symmetric, we identify two alternative conditions for the validity of Gaussian-type upper bounds on heat kernels and…
We prove the uniqueness of self-similar $D_4$-symmetric resistance forms on unconstrained Sierpinski carpets ($\mathcal{USC}$'s). Moreover, on a sequence of $\mathcal{USC}$'s $K_n, n\geq 1$ converging in Hausdorff metric, we show that the…
This paper provides sharp Dirichlet heat kernel estimates in inner uniform domains, including bounded inner uniform domains, in the context of certain (possibly non-symmetric) bilinear forms resembling Dirichlet forms. For instance, the…
We prove existence of a measurable Riemannian structure on higher-dimensional harmonic Sierpinski gasket fractals and deduce Gaussian heat kernel bounds in the geodesic metric. Our proof differs from that given by Kigami for the usual…
We introduce a H\"older regularity condition for harmonic functions on metric measure spaces and prove that, under a slow volume regular condition and an upper heat kernel estimate, the H\"older regularity condition, the weak Bakry-\'Emery…
We prove that a metric measure space equipped with a Dirichlet form admitting an Euclidean heat kernel is necessarily isometric to the Euclidean space. This helps us providing an alternative proof of Colding's celebrated almost rigidity…
In this work, we establish a new characterization of sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimates for strongly local regular Dirichlet forms on metric measure spaces. Our formulation is based on the newly introduced cutoff energy condition, which…
We give pointwise upper estimate for the gradient of the heat kernel on some fractal-like cable systems including the Vicsek and the Sierpi\'nski cable systems. Applications to $L^p$-boundedness of quasi-Riesz transforms are derived.
We show that the small-time asymptotics of the sub-Riemannian heat kernel, its derivatives, and its logarithmic derivatives can be localized, allowing them to be studied even on incomplete manifolds, under essentially optimal conditions on…
In this article, we prove a general and rather flexible upper bound for the heat kernel of a weighted heat operator on a closed manifold evolving by an intrinsic geometric flow. The proof is based on logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and…
We apply the Davies method to prove that for any regular Dirichlet form on a metric measure space, an off-diagonal stable-type upper bound of the heat kernel is equivalent to the conjunction of the on-diagonal upper bound, a cutoff…
In this paper we construct a large family of examples of subsets of Euclidean space that support a 1-Poincar\'e inequality yet have empty interior. These examples are formed from an iterative process that involves removing well-behaved…
We present a direct proof of the cutoff Sobolev inequality on the Sierpi\'nski gasket, which has long been regarded as highly non-trivial in the context of heat kernel estimates.
The heat pulse (flash) experiment is a well-known and widely accepted method to measure the thermal diffusivity of a material. In recent years, it is observed that the thermal behavior of heterogeneous materials can show deviation from the…
We numerically compute the heat kernel on a square lattice torus equipped with the measure corresponding to Liouville quantum gravity (LQG). From the on-diagonal heat kernel we verify that the spectral dimension of LQG is 2. Furthermore,…
We prove Cameron-Martin type quasi-invariance results for the heat kernel measure of infinite-dimensional Kolmogorov and related diffusions. We first study quantitative functional inequalities for appropriate finite-dimensional…
A new type of gradient estimate is established for diffusion semigroups on non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. As applications, a global Harnack inequality with power and a heat kernel estimate are derived for diffusion semigroups on…
