We estimate the heat kernel of the smooth open set for the isotropic unimodal pure-jump L\'evy process with infinite L\'evy measure and weakly scaling L\'evy-Kchintchine exponent.

This paper studies strongly local symmetric Dirichlet forms on general measure spaces. The underlying space is equipped with the intrinsic metric induced by the Dirichlet form, with respect to which the metric measure space does not…

It is known that the couple formed by the two dimensional Brownian motion and its L\'evy area leads to the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group, which is one of the simplest sub-Riemannian space. The associated diffusion operator is…

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…

Using time dependent Lyapunov functions, we prove pointwise upper bounds for the heat kernels of some nonautonomous Kolmogorov operators with possibly unbounded drift and diffusion coefficients and a possibly unbounded potential term.

Let $X$ be a symmetric jump process on $\R^d$ such that the corresponding jumping kernel $J(x,y)$ satisfies $$J(x,y)\le \frac{c}{|x-y|^{d+2}\log^{1+\varepsilon}(e+|x-y|)}$$ for all $x,y\in\R^d$ with $|x-y|\ge1$ and some constants…
