We show the existence of an entangled nonequilibrium state at very high temperatures when two linearly coupled harmonic oscillators are parametrically driven and dissipate into two independent heat baths. This result has a twofold meaning:…

In this work we determine that the Hawking temperature of black holes possesses a purely topological nature. We find a very simple but powerful formula, based on a topological invariant known as the Euler characteristic, which is able to…

By adapting a technique of Molchanov, we obtain the heat kernel asymptotics at the sub-Riemannian cut locus, when the cut points are reached by an $r$-dimensional parametric family of optimal geodesics. We apply these results to the…

We consider Laplacians acting on sections of homogeneous vector bundles over symmetric spaces. By using an integral representation of the heat semi-group we find a formal solution for the heat kernel diagonal that gives a generating…

The main aim of this paper is twofold: (1) revealing a relation between the counting function N(lambda) (the number of the eigenstates with eigenvalue smaller than a given number) and the heat kernel K(t), which is still an open problem in…

We consider the Gurtin-Pipkin equation of the first order in time. For the kernel as a series of exponentials we obtain the structure of the spectrum of the system.

We solve some computational problems for triangulated closed three-dimensional manifolds using groups of simplicial homology and cohomology modulo 2. Two efficient algorithms for computing the intersection numbers of 1- and 2-dimensional…

We obtain an upper heat kernel bound for the Laplacian on metric graphs arising as one skeletons of certain polygonal tilings of the plane, which reflects the one dimensional as well as the two dimensional nature of these graphs.

We use a Harnack-type inequality on exit times and spectral bounds to characterize upper bounds of the heat kernel associated with any regular Dirichlet form without killing part, where the scale function may vary with position. We further…

We investigate the heat kernel with Robin boundary condition and prove comparison theorems for heat kernel on geodesic balls and on minimal submanifolds. We also prove an eigenvalue comparison theorem for the first Robin eigenvalues on…

By making use of the potentials of the heat conduction equation the integral equations are derived which determine the heat kernel for the Laplace operator $-a^2\Delta$ in the case of compound media. In each of the media the parameter $a^2$…

Low-dimensional metal complexes are versatile materials with tunable physical and chemical properties that make these systems promising platforms for caloric applications. In this context, this work proposes a quantum Stirling cycle based…

Standard quantum mechanics employs complex Hilbert spaces, but whether complex numbers are fundamental or merely convenient has long been debated. For decades, real-valued equivalents were considered mathematically possible but cumbersome.…

For incomplete sub-Riemannian manifolds, and for an associated second-order hypoelliptic operator, which need not be symmetric, we identify two alternative conditions for the validity of Gaussian-type upper bounds on heat kernels and…

We derive several properties of the heat equation with the Hodge operator associated with the Rumin complex on Heisenberg groups and prove several properties of the fundamental solution. As an application, we use the heat kernel for Rumin's…

We study real and integral structures in the space of solutions to the quantum differential equations. First we show that, under mild conditions, any real structure in orbifold quantum cohomology yields a pure and polarized tt^*-geometry…

In this paper, we firstly establish weighted heat kernel comparison theorems for the weighted heat equation on complete manifolds with radial curvatures bounded, and then by mainly using this conclusion, we can obtain two eigenvalue…

We get a generalization of Krein's formula -which relates the resolvents of different selfadjoint extensions of a differential operator with regular coefficients- to the non-regular case $A=-\partial_x^2+(\nu^2-1/4)/x^2+V(x)$, where…

In the present paper we study the entanglement properties of thermal (a.k.a. Gibbs) states of quantum harmonic oscillator systems as functions of the Hamiltonian and the temperature. We prove the physical intuition that at sufficiently high…

We construct an index of first-order, self-adjoint, elliptic differential operators in the $K$-theory of a Fr\'echet algebra of smooth kernels with faster than exponential off-diagonal decay. We show that this index can be represented by an…
