We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are H\"older continuous locally in space and time. This is done via local…
In general, the mechanics of granular matter is described using continuum mechanics approach; this requires to introduce the concepts of stress and strain, which are averaged quantities, so that this needs also to introduce the notion of…
Suppose that $d\ge 1$ and $\alpha\in (0, 2)$. In this paper, by using probabilistic methods, we establish sharp two-sided pointwise estimates for the Dirichlet heat kernels of $\{\Delta+ a^\alpha \Delta^{\alpha/2}; \ a\in (0, 1]\}$ on…
We derive a local Gaussian upper bound for the $f$-heat kernel on complete smooth metric measure space $(M,g,e^{-f}dv)$ with nonnegative Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci curvature, which generalizes the classic Li-Yau estimate. As applications, we…

We prove genuinely sharp two-sided global estimates for heat kernels on all compact rank-one symmetric spaces. This generalizes the authors' recent result obtained for a Euclidean sphere of arbitrary dimension. Furthermore, similar heat…
Using an ensemble of high resolution 2D numerical simulations, we explore the scaling properties of cosmological density fluctuations in the non-linear regime. We study the scaling behaviour of the usual $N$--point volume-averaged…

The heat kernel expansion is a very convenient tool for studying one-loop divergences, anomalies and various asymptotics of the effective action. The aim of this report is to collect useful information on the heat kernel coefficients…
We establish sharp upper and lower bounds of Gaussian type for the heat kernel in the metric measure space satisfying $\RCD(0,N)$ ( equivalently, $\RCD^\ast(0,N)$) condition with $N\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{1\}$ and having maximum volume…
In this paper characterizations of graphs satisfying heat kernel estimates for a wide class of space-time scaling functions are given. The equivalence of the two-sided heat kernel estimate and the parabolic Harnack inequality is also shown…
We calculate the mean and almost-sure leading order behaviour of the high frequency asymptotics of the eigenvalue counting function associated with the natural Dirichlet form on $\alpha$-stable trees, which lead in turn to short-time heat…
