We develop a new method for the calculation of the heat trace asymptotics of the Laplacian on symmetric spaces that is based on a representation of the heat semigroup in form of an average over the Lie group of isometries and obtain a…
Heat-invariants are a class of spectral invariants of Laplace-type operators on compact Riemannian manifolds that contain information about the geometry of the manifold, e.g., the metric and connection. Since Brownian motion solves the heat…
We study heat semigroups generated by self-adjoint Laplace operators on metric graphs characterized by the property that the local scattering matrices associated with each vertex of the graph are independent from the spectral parameter. For…
We introduce a new method for computing the heat invariants of a 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold based on a result by S.Agmon and Y.Kannai. Two explicit expressions for the heat invariants are presented. The first one depends on the…
In this paper, we first give a direct proof for two recurrence relations of the heat kernels for hyperbolic spaces in \cite{DM}. Then, by similar computation, we give two similar recurrence relations of the heat kernels for spheres.…
In this thesis we deal with spectral invariants for polygons and closed orbisurfaces of constant Gaussian curvature. In each case our method is to study the heat kernel and the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace. First, we investigate…
We consider a quantum graph where the operator contains a potential. We show that this operator admits a heat kernel. Under some assumptions on the potential, this heat kernel admits an asymptotic expansion at t=0 with coefficients that…

The heat kernel associated with an elliptic second-order partial differential operator of Laplace type acting on smooth sections of a vector bundle over a Riemannian manifold, is studied. A general manifestly covariant method for…
Polterovich proved a remarkable closed formula for heat kernel coefficients of the Laplace operator on compact Riemannian manifolds involving powers of Laplacians acting on the distance function. In the case of K\"ahler manifolds, we prove…
Let $(M,g)$ be a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold of finite diameter with a conical singularity. Under the assumption that the metric near the cone point $C$ is rotationally invariant, but not necessarily flat, we give an explicit…
Our earlier results on the temperature inversion properties and the ellipticisation of the finite temperature internal energy on odd spheres are extended to orbifold factors of odd spheres and then to other thermodynamic quantities, in…
We present a systematic study of asymptotic behavior of (generalised) $\zeta-$functions and heat kernels used in noncommutative geometry and clarify their connections with Dixmier traces. We strengthen and complete a number of results from…
We analyze the heat kernel associated to the Laplacian on a compact metric graph, with standard Kirchoff-Neumann vertex conditions. An explicit formula for the heat kernel as a sum over loops, developed by Roth and Kostrykin, Potthoff, and…
Let $P$ be an operator of Dirac type on a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. We impose spectral boundary conditions and study the asymptotics of the heat trace of the associated operator of Laplace type.
We study the relationships between Dixmier traces, zeta-functions and traces of heat semigroups beyond the dual of the Macaev ideal and in the general context of semifinite von Neumann algebras. We show that the correct framework for this…
This note aims to verify a prediction on the total derivative term of the 4D trace anomaly, and the corresponding heat coefficient, for GJMS operators. It stems from the explicit computation of an {\it improved} Casimir (or vacuum) energy…
We compute the coefficients in asymptotics of regularized traces and associated trace (spectral) distributions for Schrodinger operators, with short and long range potentials. A kernel expansion for the Schrodinger semigroup is derived, and…
