The aim of this paper is to prove the existence and several selected properties of a global fundamental Heat kernel $\Gamma$ for the parabolic operators $\mathcal{H}=\sum_{j=1}^m X_j^2-\partial_t$, where $X_1,\ldots,X_m$ are smooth vector…

We study the small-time asymptotics of the heat content of smooth non-characteristic domains of a general rank-varying sub-Riemannian structure, equipped with an arbitrary smooth measure. By adapting to the sub-Riemannian case a technique…

Let $G$ be a noncompact semisimple Lie group equipped with a certain invariant Riemannian metric. Then, we can consider a heat kernel function on $G$ associated to the Riemannian metric. We give an explicit formula for the heat kernel when…

We establish dimension-independent estimates related to heat operators e^{tL} on manifolds. We first develop a very general contractivity result for Markov kernels which can be applied to diffusion semigroups. Second, we develop estimates…

The square root of the heat operator $\sqrt{\partial_t-\Delta}$, can be realized as the Dirichlet to Neumann map of the heat extension of data on $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ to $\mathbb R^{n+2}_+$. In this note we obtain similar characterizations for…

We prove a variant of the Davies-Gaffney-Grigor'yan Lemma for the continuous time heat kernel on graphs. We use it together with the Li-Yau inequality to obtain strong heat kernel estimates for graphs satisfying the exponential curvature…

We show that the $L^p$ boundedness, $p>2$, of the Riesz transform on a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold with upper and lower Gaussian heat kernel estimates is equivalent to a certain form of Sobolev inequality. We also characterize…

D.Freed has formulated and proved an index theorem on odd dimensional spin manifolds with boundary. The proof is based on analysis by Calderon and Seeley. In this note we are going to give a proof of this theorem using the heat kernels…

A small time asymptotics of the density is established for a simplified (non-Gaussian, strictly hypoelliptic) second chaos process tangent to the Dudley relativistic diffusion.

The heat kernel associated with the setting of the classical Jacobi polynomials is defined by an oscillatory sum which cannot be computed explicitly, in contrast to the situation for the two other classical systems of orthogonal…

We give large-time asymptotic estimates, both in uniform and $L^1$ norms, for solutions of the Dirichlet heat equation in the complement of a bounded open set of $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying certain technical assumptions. We always assume that…

One considers the class of complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds whose heat kernel satisfies Gaussian estimates from above and below. One shows that the Riesz transform is $L^p$ bounded on such a manifold, for $p$ ranging in an open…

In the first part of this paper, we get new Li-Yau type gradient estimates for positive solutions of heat equation on Riemmannian manifolds with $Ricci(M)\ge -k$, $k\in \mathbb R$. As applications, several parabolic Harnack inequalities are…

Davies' method of perturbed semigroups is a classical technique to obtain off-diagonal upper bounds on the heat kernel. However Davies' method does not apply to anomalous diffusions due to the singularity of energy measures. In this note,…

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…

This note is concerned with two families of operators related to the fractional Laplacian, the first arising from the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension problem and the second from the fractional heat equation. They both include the Poisson…

We consider the Hodge Laplacian on manifolds with incomplete edge singularities, with infinite dimensional von Neumann spaces and intricate elliptic boundary value theory. We single out a class of its algebraic self-adjoint extensions. Our…
