We prove heat kernel bounds for the operator (1 + |x|^{\alpha})\Delta in R^N, through Nash inequalities and weighted Hardy inequalities.

In this paper, we prove logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and derive the Hamilton Harnack inequality for the heat semigroup of the Witten Laplacian on complete Riemannian manifolds equipped with $K$-super Perelman Ricci flow. We establish…

This paper first proposes a new approximate scheme to construct a harmonic heat flow $u$ between a parabolic cylinder to a sphere. Y.Chen and M.Struwe have proved an existence and discussed a partial regularity of harmonic heat flows by…

We characterize Gaussian estimates for transition probability of a discrete time Markov chain in terms of geometric properties of the underlying state space. In particular, we show that the following are equivalent: (1) Two sided Gaussian…

The goal of this paper is to study the action of the heat operator on the Heisenberg group H^d, and in particular to characterize Besov spaces of negative index on H^d in terms of the heat kernel. That characterization can be extended to…

In this short paper we provide a new proof of the geometric Forward-Reverse Brascamp-Lieb inequality, using the approach of the heat semigroup, or the heat flow. Furthermore, we characterize all the Forward-Reverse Brascamp-Lieb data such…

Aim of this short note is to show that a dimension-free Harnack inequality on an infinitesimally Hilbertian metric measure space where the heat semigroup admits an integral representation in terms of a kernel is suffcient to deduce a sharp…

We establish a connection between a sharp double-sided Harnack bound for positive solutions of a fractional heat equation and the circular geometry in higher dimensions. The present work extends and generalizes the results obtained in the…

Employing time-dependent projection formalism, a Fokker-Planck equation with non-Markovian transport coefficients is derived for large amplitude collective motion. Properties of transport coefficients for diffusion processes in a potential…

We consider metric graphs with Kirchhoff boundary conditions. We study the intrinsic metric, volume doubling and a Poincar\'e inequality. This enables us to prove a parabolic Harnack inequality. The proof involves various techniques from…

In 1995, Hamilton introduced a Harnack inequality for convex solutions of the mean curvature flow. In this paper we prove an alternative Harnack inequality for curve shortening flow, i.e. one-dimensional mean curvature flow, that does not…

A logarithmic type Harnack inequality is established for the semigroup of solutions to a stochastic differential equation in Hilbert spaces with non-additive noise. As applications, the strong Feller property as well as the entropy-cost…

We present results for the entire set of anomalous charge and heat transport coefficients for metallic systems in the presence of a finite-temperature heat bath. In realistic physical systems this necessitates the inclusion of inelastic…

We present here nonoverlapping optimized Schwarz methods applied to heat transfer problems with heterogeneous diffusion coefficients. After a Laplace transform in time, we derive the error equation and obtain the convergence factor. The…

A new algebraic approach for calculating the heat kernel for the Laplace operator on any Riemannian manifold with covariantly constant curvature is proposed. It is shown that the heat kernel operator can be obtained by an averaging over the…

Optimal transport distances, otherwise known as Wasserstein distances, have recently drawn ample attention in computer vision and machine learning as a powerful discrepancy measure for probability distributions. The recent developments on…

A unified treatment is given of some results of H. Donnelly-P. Li and L. Schwartz concerning the behaviour of heat semigroups on open manifolds with given compactifications, on one hand, and the relationship with the behaviour at infinity…

We apply the shifted composition rule -- an information-theoretic principle introduced in our earlier work [AC23] -- to establish shift Harnack inequalities for the Langevin diffusion. We obtain sharp constants for these inequalities for…

We study Fokker--Planck equations with symmetric, positive definite mobility matrices capturing diffusion in heterogeneous environments. A weighted Wasserstein metric is introduced for which these equations are gradient flows. This metric…

Transport properties provide important access to a solid's quasiparticles, such as quasiparticle density, mobility, and scattering. The transport of heat can be particularly revealing because, in principle, all types of excitations in a…
