In this paper, we extend the iterative expression for the generalized spherical functions associated to the root systems of type $A$ previously obtained beyond regular elements. We also provide the corresponding expression in the flat case.…

We derive estimates of the derivatives of the heat kernel on noncompact symmetric spaces and on locally symmetric spaces. Applying these estimates we study the $L^{p}$-boundedness of Littlewood-Paley-Stein operators and the Laplacian of the…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and let $K$ be a closed subgroup of $G$. In this paper we study whether the functional $g\mapsto \lambda_1(G/K,g)\operatorname{diam}(G/K,g)^2$ is bounded among $G$-invariant metrics $g$ on $G/K$.…

We apply a special case, the restriction principle (for which we give a definition simpler than the usual one), of a basic result in functional analysis (the polar decomposition of an operator) in order to define $C_{\mu, t}$, the…

We consider the volume potential associated with the heat operator and we prove a mapping property in the space of distributions which are the time derivative of H\"older continuous functions. As an application we solve the Dirichlet and…

We study integration over functions on superspaces. These functions are invariant under a transformation which maps the whole superspace onto the part of the superspace which only comprises purely commuting variables. We get a compact…

In this paper, we first define a discrete version of the fractional Laplace operator $(-\Delta)^{s}$ through the heat semigroup on a stochastically complete, connected, locally finite graph $G = (V, E, \mu, w)$. Secondly, we define the…

We consider Laplacians acting on sections of homogeneous vector bundles over symmetric spaces. By using an integral representation of the heat semi-group we find a formal solution for the heat kernel diagonal that gives a generating…

We describe the set of bounded harmonic functions for the Heckman--Opdam Laplacian, when the multiplicity function is larger than 1/2. We prove that this set is a vector space of dimension the cardinality of the Weyl group. We give some…

It is shown that the heat kernel operator for the Laplace operator on any covariantly constant curved background, i.e. in symmetric spaces, may be presented in form of an averaging over the Lie group of isometries with some nontrivial…

We calculate heat invariants of arbitrary Riemannian manifolds without boundary. Every heat invariant is expressed in terms of powers of the Laplacian and the distance function. Our approach is based on a multi-dimensional generalization of…

Let $M$ be a compact torsion-free $G_2$ 7-manifold or Calabi-Yau 6-manifold. We prove Hodge decomposition theorems for the $dd^\phi$ operators, introduced by Harvey and Lawson, which generalize the $i\partial\bar\partial$ operator used in…

We study the symplectic Radon transform from the point of view of the metaplectic representation of the symplectic group and its action on the Lagrangian Grassmannian. We give rigorous proofs in the general setting of multi-dimensional…

A Theorem due to Guillemin and Sternberg about geometric quantization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $G$ on compact Kaehler manifolds says that the dimension of the $G$-invariant subspace is equal to the Riemann-Roch number of…

This is the second in a series of two articles where we study various aspects of the spectral theory associated to families of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces obtained through elliptic degeneration. In the first article, we investigate the…

The thermal partition functions of photons in any covariant gauge and gravitons in the harmonic gauge, propagating in a Rindler wedge, are computed using a local zeta-function approach. The relation with the surface terms previously…

We study the Segal-Bargmann transform on the Heisenberg motion groups $\mathbb{H}^n \ltimes K,$ where $\mathbb{H}^n$ is the Heisenberg group and $K$ is a compact subgroup of $U(n)$ such that $(K,\mathbb{H}^n)$ is a Gelfand pair. The Poisson…

Heat-kernel expansion and zeta function regularisation are discussed for Laplace type operators with discrete spectrum in non compact domains. Since a general theory is lacking, the heat-kernel expansion is investigated by means of several…

Exploring the concept of the extended Galilei group $\mathcal{G}$, a representation for the symplectic quantum mechanics in the manifold of $\mathcal{G}$, written in the light-cone of a five-dimensional De Sitter space-time, is derived…

In this paper we study the chaotic behaviour of the heat semigroup generated by the Dunkl-Laplacian on weighted $ L^p$ spaces. In the case of the heat semigroup associated to the standard Laplacian we obtain a complete picture on the spaces…
