We obtain nonperturbative results in the framework of continuous Liouville theory. In particular, we express the specific heat ${\cal Z}$ of pure gravity in terms of an expansion of integrals on moduli spaces of punctured Riemann spheres.…
Mosconi proved Liouville theorems for ancient solutions of subexponential growth to the heat equation on a manifold with Ricci curvature bounded below. We extend these results to graphs with bounded geometry: for a graph with bounded…
We consider the $\gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) model for $\gamma \in (0,2)$, formally described by $e^{\gamma h}$ where $h$ is a Gaussian free field on a planar domain $D$. Sheffield showed that when a certain type of LQG surface,…
We prove a Li-Yau gradient estimate for positive solutions to the heat equation defined on a metric star graph $\mG$ given by the heat kernel formula. As consequence, we derive a Harnack estimate and a Liouville property for bounded…
In this paper, we establish a parabolic Harnack inequality for positive solutions of the $\phi$-heat equation and prove Gaussian upper and lower bounds for the $\phi$-heat kernel on weighted Riemannian manifolds under lower $N$-Ricci…
Let $L$ be an elliptic differential operator on a complete connected Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the associated heat kernel has two-sided Gaussian bounds as well as a Gaussian type gradient estimate. Let $L^{(\aa)}$ be the…
We establish global two-sided heat kernel estimates (for full time and space) of the Schr\"odinger operator $-\frac{1}{2}\Delta+V$ on $\R^d$, where the potential $V(x)$ is locally bounded and behaves like $c|x|^{-\alpha}$ near infinity with…
We characterize functions $V\le 0$ for which the heat kernel of the Schr\"o\-dinger operator $\Delta+V$ is comparable with the Gauss-Weierstrass kernel uniformly in space and time. In dimension $4$ and higher the condition turns out to be…
We estimate the heat kernel of the smooth open set for the isotropic unimodal pure-jump L\'evy process with infinite L\'evy measure and weakly scaling L\'evy-Kchintchine exponent.
We derive a gradient estimate for positive functions, in particular for positive solutions to the heat equation, on finite or locally finite graphs. Unlike the well known Li-Yau estimate, which is based on the maximum principle, our…
We show that the unit area Liouville quantum gravity sphere can be constructed in two equivalent ways. The first, which was introduced by the authors and Duplantier, uses a Bessel excursion measure to produce a Gaussian free field variant…
Let $\{Y_{\mathfrak{B}}(x)\,:\,x\in\mathfrak{B}\}$ be a discrete Gaussian free field in a two-dimensional box $\mathfrak{B}$ of side length $S$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We study Liouville first-passage percolation: the…
In this paper, we derive explicit sharp two-sided estimates for the Dirichlet heat kernels of a large class of symmetric (but not necessarily rotationally symmetric) L\'evy processes on half spaces for all $t>0$. These L\'evy processes may…
Consider a critical ($\gamma=2$) Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) disk together with an independent conformal loop ensemble (CLE) with parameter $\kappa=4$. We show that the critical LQG surfaces parametrized by the regions enclosed by the…
Consider two critical Liouville quantum gravity surfaces (i.e., $\gamma$-LQG for $\gamma=2$), each with the topology of $\mathbb{H}$ and with infinite boundary length. We prove that there a.s. exists a conformal welding of the two surfaces,…
It is known that the couple formed by the two dimensional Brownian motion and its L\'evy area leads to the heat kernel on the Heisenberg group, which is one of the simplest sub-Riemannian space. The associated diffusion operator is…
In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the heat kernel on the infinite Cayley graph of the modular group $\operatorname{PSL}_2\mathbb{Z}$, given by the presentation $\langle a,b\mid a^2=1, b^3=1\rangle$. Our approach extends the…
We establish the first scaling limit for FK($q$)-weighted planar maps in the critical case $q=4$, resolving a problem that has remained open since Sheffield's seminal work arXiv:1108.2241. In that work, Sheffield proved a scaling limit for…
In this note, we study the Liouville equation $\Delta u = -e^u$ on a graph G satisfying certain isoperimetric inequality. Following the idea of W. Ding, we prove that there exists a uniform lower bound for the energy, $\Sigma_G e^u$ of any…
In this paper, we establish the Knizhnik--Polyakov--Zamolodchikov (KPZ) formula of Liouville quantum gravity, using the heat kernel of Liouville Brownian motion. This derivation of the KPZ formula was first suggested by F. David and M.…
