In this article, we describe a geometric method to study cusp forms, which relies on heat kernel and Bergman kernel analysis. This new approach of applying techniques coming from analytic geometry is based on the micro-local analysis of the…

In this paper we give Hamilton's Laplacian estimates for the heat equation on complete noncompact manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As an application, combining Li-Yau's lower and upper bounds of the heat kernel, we give an…

We define cusp-decomposable manifolds and prove smooth rigidity within this class of manifolds. These manifolds generally do not admit a nonpositively curved metric but can be decomposed into pieces that are diffeomorphic to finite volume,…

Given a class of closed Riemannian manifolds with prescribed geometric conditions, we introduce an embedding of the manifolds into $\ell^2$ based on the heat kernel of the Connection Laplacian associated with the Levi-Civita connection on…

We study the subelliptic heat kernel of the sub-Laplacian on a 2n+1-dimensional anti-de Sitter space H2n+1 which also appears as a model space of a CR Sasakian manifold with constant negative sectional curvature. In particular we obtain an…

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…

The heat kernels of Laplacians for spin 1/2, 1, 3/2 and 2 fields, and the asymptotic expansion of their traces are studied on manifolds with conical singularities. The exact mode-by-mode analysis is carried out for 2-dimensional domains and…

Let $(M,J)$ be a compact complex manifold of complex dimension $m$ and let $g_s$ be a one-parameter family of Hermitian forms on $M$ that are smooth and positive definite for each fixed $s\in (0,1]$ and that somehow degenerates to a…

We introduce manifolds with kinks, a class of manifolds with possibly singular boundary that notably contains manifolds with smooth boundary and corners. We derive the asymptotic behavior of the Graph Laplace operator with Gaussian kernel…

In the present paper, we construct a cusped hyperbolic $4$-manifold with all cusp sections homeomorphic to the Hantzsche-Wendt manifold, which is a rational homology sphere. By a result of Gol\'enia and Moroianu, the Laplacian on $2$-forms…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a smooth, closed and connected manifold of dimension $n\in\mathbb{N}$, endowed with a Riemannian metric $g$. Moreover, let $\mathcal{B}$ be an $(n+1)$-dimensional compact manifold with boundary equal to $\mathcal{M}$.…

We study pointwise and $L^p$ gradient estimates of the heat kernel, on manifolds that may have some amount of negative Ricci curvature, provided it is not too negative (in an integral sense) at infinity. We also prove uniform boundedness…

This is first of series papers on new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel $H(x,y,t)$ on a complete manifold $(M,g)$. In this paper, on a complete manifold $M$ with $Ric(M)\geq 0$, we obtain new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat…

We prove vanishing results for the generalized Miller-Morita-Mumford classes of some smooth bundles whose fiber is a closed manifold that supports a nonpositively curved Riemannian metric. We also find, under some extra conditions, that the…

For a differentiable manifold $M$, a pair $(M, \nabla)$ is called an affine manifold if $\nabla$ is a flat and torsion-free connection on the tangent bundle $TM\rightarrow M$. A Riemannian metric $g$ on $M$ is said to be a Hessian metric on…

In \cite{GGKM-SSS} we examined the relationship between the singular set of a compact Riemannian orbifold and the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian on $p$-forms by computing the heat invariants associated to the $p$-spectrum. We showed that…

Let $(M, g)$ be a smooth n-dimensional Riemannian manifold for $n\ge 2$. Consider the conformal perturbation $\tilde{g}=h g$ where $h$ is a smooth bounded positive function on $M$. Denote by $\tilde{p}_t(x,y)$ the heat kernel of manifolds…

A generalized cusp $C$ is diffeomorphic to $[0,\infty)$ times a closed Euclidean manifold. Geometrically $C$ is the quotient of a properly convex domain by a lattice, $\Gamma$, in one of a family of affine groups $G(\psi)$, parameterized by…

In this paper, we study the heat kernel associated to the intrinsic sublaplacian on a quaternionic contact manifold considered as a subriemannian manifold. More precisely, we explicitly compute the first two coefficients $c_0$ and $c_1$…

Let $X$ be a compact oriented CR manifold of dimension $2n+1$, $n \ge 1$, with a nondegenerate Levi form of constant signature $(n_-, n_+)$. Suppose that condition $Y(q)$ holds at each point of $X$, we establish the small time asymptotics…
