The paper is devoted to a local heat kernel, which is a special part of the standard heat kernel. Locality means that all considerations are produced in an open convex set of a smooth Riemannian manifold. We study such properties and…
The Antonsen - Bormann idea was originally proposed by these authors for the computation of the heat kernel in curved space; it was also used by the author recently with the same objective but for the Lagrangian density for a real massive…
This paper is an exposition of several questions linking heat kernel measures on infinite dimensional Lie groups, limits associated with critical Sobolev exponents, and Feynmann-Kac measures for sigma models.
We study the geometry associated to the Grusin operator G=\Delta_{x}+|x|^{2}\partial_{u}^{2} on \mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}_{u}, to obtain heat kernel estimates for this operator. The main work is to find the shortest geodesics…
Adopting the powerful methods introduced in \cite{li2021carnotcaratheodory, LZ2025}, we investigate the asymptotic behaviour at infinity for the heat kernel associated with the Grushin operator $\Delta_G = \Delta_x + |x|^2 \Delta_u$ on $…
A diagramatic heat kernel expansion technique is presented. The method is especially well suited to the small-derivative expansion of the heat kernel, but it can also be used to reproduce the results obtained by the approach known as…
We study the asymptotic expansion of the smeared L2-trace of fexp(-tP^2) where P is an operator of Dirac type, f is an auxiliary smooth smearing function which is used to localize the problem, and chiral bag boundary conditions are imposed.…
In this paper, we focus on strongly local regular Dirichlet forms, especially those satisfying Morrey-type inequalities. We prove the equivalence between resistance estimates and heat kernel estimates in this case. Self-similar forms on…
We consider skew extensions of expanding maps by compact Lie groups. For a class of natural invariant measures, we prove an explicit lower bound on the rate of (exponential) mixing involving topological pressure. Proof uses representation…
We prove sharp two-sided global estimates for the heat kernel associated with a Euclidean sphere of arbitrary dimension. This solves a long-standing open problem.
We use the heat kernel (on differential forms) on a compact Riemannian manifold to assign a real number to a k-tuple of cycles on the manifold satisfying certain conditions. If k is 2, this number is the ordinary topological linking number,…
Standard thermodynamic treatments of quantum field theory in the presence of black-hole backgrounds reproduce the black hole entropy by usually specializing to the leading order of the heat-kernel or the high-temperature expansion. By…
In this paper, we study purely discontinuous symmetric Markov processes on closed subsets of ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 1$, with jump kernels of the form $J(x,y)=|x-y|^{-d-\alpha}{\mathcal B}(x,y)$, $\alpha\in (0,2)$, where the function…
The heat kernel or Bargmann-Segal transform on a noncompact Riemannian symmetric space X=G/K maps a square integrable function on X to a holomorphic function on the complex crown. In this article we determine the range of this transform.
We establish sharp upper and lower bounds of Gaussian type for the heat kernel in the metric measure space satisfying $\RCD(0,N)$ ( equivalently, $\RCD^\ast(0,N)$) condition with $N\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{1\}$ and having maximum volume…
We consider a class of fourth order uniformly elliptic operators in planar Euclidean domains and study the associated heat kernel. For operators with $L^{\infty}$ coefficients we obtain Gaussian estimates with best constants, while for…

In previous works, we used a so-called deformation formula in order to study, in particular, the Borel summability of the heat kernel of some operators. A goal of this paper is to collect miscellaneous remarks related to these works. Here…
