In this paper, we study the heat kernel associated to the intrinsic sublaplacian on a quaternionic contact manifold considered as a subriemannian manifold. More precisely, we explicitly compute the first two coefficients $c_0$ and $c_1$…
We obtain pointwise lower bounds for heat kernels of higher order differential operators with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains in $\R^N$. The bounds exhibit explicitly the nature of the spatial decay of the heat kernel close…
We study the spectral behavior as the sample size $n \to +\infty$ of integral operators defined by convolution of a non-negative symmetric kernel k with respect to empirical measures $\mu_n = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n \delta_{X_i}$, where…
The quantization of gauge fields and gravitation on manifolds with boundary makes it necessary to study boundary conditions which involve both normal and tangential derivatives of the quantized field. The resulting one-loop divergences can…
The formulation of gauge theories on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary leads to partial differential operators with Gilkey--Smith boundary conditions, whose peculiar property is the occurrence of both normal and tangential…
We consider fractional Schr\"odinger operators with possibly singular potentials and derive certain spatially averaged estimates for its complex-time heat kernel. The main tool is a Phragm\'en-Lindel\"of theorem for polynomially bounded…
Motivated by the study of relativistic atoms, we prove sharp heat kernel bounds for the Hardy operator $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}-\kappa|x|^{-\alpha}$ acting on functions of the form $u(|x|) |x|^{\ell} Y_{\ell,m}(x/|x|)$ in $L^2(\R^d)$, when…
The goal of this article is twofold: in a first part, we prove Gaussian estimates for the heat kernel of Schr{\"o}dinger operators delta + V whose potential V is "small at infinity" in an integral sense. In a second part, we prove sharp…
An asymptotic expansion of the trace of the heat kernel on a cone where the heat coefficients have a delta function behavior at the apex is obtained. It is used to derive the renormalized effective action and total energy of a…
Let $n\ge2$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded non-tangentially accessible domain (for short, NTA domain) of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assume that $L_D$ is a second-order divergence form elliptic operator having real-valued, bounded, measurable coefficients…
For $d\ge 2$ and $0<\beta<\alpha<2$, consider a family of non-local operators $\mathcal{L}^{b}=\Delta^{\alpha/2}+\mathcal{S}^{b}$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $$ \mathcal{S}^{b}f(x):=\lim_{\varepsilon\to 0}\mathcal{A}(d,-\beta)\int_{ \{z\in…
The covariant technique for calculating the heat kernel asymptotic expansion for an elliptic differential second order operator is generalized to manifolds with boundary. The first boundary coefficients of the asymptotic expansion which are…
We study a continuous time random walk $X$ in an environment of i.i.d. random conductances $\mu_e\in[1,\infty)$. We obtain heat kernel bounds and prove a quenched invariance principle for $X$. This holds even when…
We explore the small-time behavior of solutions to the Yang-Mills heat equation with rough initial data. We consider solutions $A(t)$ with initial value $A_0\in H_{1/2}(M)$, where $M$ is a bounded convex region in $\mathbb{R}^3$ or all of…
The behavior of the discrete spectrum of the Schr\"odinger operator $-\D - V$, in quite a general setting, up to a large extent is determined by the behavior of the corresponding heat kernel $P(t;x,y)$ as $t\to 0$ and $t\to\infty$. If this…
For $d \ge 2$, $\alpha \in (0,2)$ and $M > 0$, we consider the gradient perturbation of a family of nonlocal operators $\{\Delta+a^\alpha\Delta^{\alpha/2}, a\in (0,M]\}$. We establish the existence and uniqueness of the fundamental solution…
We consider heat kernel for higher-order operators with constant coefficients in $d$-dimensio\-nal Euclidean space and its asymptotic behavior. For arbitrary operators which are invariant with respect to $O(d)$-rotations we obtain exact…
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…
Let L=d^2/dx^2+u(x) be the one-dimensional Schrodinger operator and H(x,y,t) be the corresponding heat kernel. We prove that the nth Hadamard's coefficient H_n(x,y) is equal to 0 if and only if there exists a differential operator M of…
