Curvature expansion for the heat kernel trace and the one-loop effective action is built for the wave operator of the theory in the quasi-thermal setup of a nonvacuum quantum state. This setup implies a non-static and non-stationary…

In this paper, first we consider the uniform complex time heat kernel estimates of $e^{-z(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}}$ for $\alpha>0, z\in \mathbb{C}^+$. When $\frac{\alpha}{2}$ is not an integer, generally the heat kernel doest not have…

We propose the multiple reflection expansion as a tool for the calculation of heat kernel coefficients. As an example, we give the coefficients for a sphere as a finite sum over reflections, obtaining as a byproduct a relation between the…
