Heat Kernel Analysis for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Operators with Quadratic Potentials

Analysis of PDEs 2012-08-22 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we study Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators with quadratic potentials. We use Hamiltonian formalism to characterise the singularities produced by the potentials by finding explicit geodesics of the operators, and obtain the heat kernels via a probabilistic ansatz. All the formulae are closed.
