Let D be a holomorphic differential operator acting on sections of a holomorphic vector bundle on an n-dimensional compact complex manifold. We prove a formula, conjectured by Feigin and Shoikhet, for the Lefschetz number of D as the…
We introduce and study new invariants associated with Laplace type elliptic partial differential operators on manifolds. These invariants are constructed by using the off-diagonal heat kernel; they are not pure spectral invariants, that is,…
The equilibrium thermodynamics of the two dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Model is derived by means of a path integral method which accounts for the variable range of the electronic hopping processes. While the lattice degrees of freedom…
In this paper we prove parabolic Schauder estimates for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a manifold $M$ with fibered boundary and a $\Phi$-metric $g_\Phi$. This setting generalizes the asymptotically conical (scattering) spaces and includes…
While an integration by parts formula for the bilinear form of the hypersingular boundary integral operator for the transient heat equation in three spatial dimensions is available in the literature, a proof of this formula seems to be…
In this paper the path integral technique is applied to the quantum motion on the Hermitian hyperbolic space HH(2). The Schr\"odinger equation on this space separates in 12 coordinate systems which are closely related to the coordinate…
For the case of reduction onto the non-zero momentum level, in the problem of the path integral quantization of a scalar particle motion on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold with the given free isometric action of the compact semisimle…
These lectures are intended as an introduction to the technique of path integrals and their applications in physics. The audience is mainly first-year graduate students, and it is assumed that the reader has a good foundation in quantum…
In this contribution a path integral approach for the quantum motion on three-dimensional spaces according to Koenigs, for short``Koenigs-Spaces'', is discussed. Their construction is simple: One takes a Hamiltonian from three-dimensional…
For a given bounded domain $\Omega$ with smooth boundary in a smooth Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M},g)$, we establish a procedure to get all the coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the heat kernel associated with the…
In this paper we extend a gradient estimate of R. Hamilton for positive solutions to the heat equation on closed manifolds to bounded positive solutions on complete, non-compact manifolds with $Rc \geq -Kg$. We accomplish this extension via…
Vacuum energy and other spectral functions of Laplace-type differential operators have been studied approximately by classical-path constructions and more fundamentally by boundary integral equations. As the first step in a program of…
We study Dirac-type operators on incomplete cusp edge spaces with invertible boundary families. In particular, we construct the heat kernel for the associated Laplace-type operator and prove that the Dirac operators are essentially…
We present a concise explicit expression for the heat trace coefficients of spheres. Our formulas yield certain combinatorial identities which are proved following ideas of D. Zeilberger. In particular, these identities allow to recover in…
In this letter we present the calculation of the $a_{5}$ heat kernel coefficient of the heat operator trace for a partial differential operator of Laplace type on a compact Riemannian manifold with Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions.
This paper is concerned with the construction of discrete counterparts of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on Riemannian manifolds that can be effectively used in the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Since existing…
We present a way for calculating the Lagrangian path integral measure directly from the Hamiltonian Schwinger--Dyson equations. The method agrees with the usual way of deriving the measure, however it may be applied to all theories, even…
In this paper, we establish a new global Hessian matrix estimate for heat-type equations on Riemannian manifolds using a Bismut-type Hessian formula. Our results feature fully explicit coefficients as well as delay / growth rate functions.…
We present an embedding of stochastic optimal control problems, of the so called path integral form, into reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Using consistent, sample based estimates of the embedding leads to a model free, non-parametric…
We consider the basic heat operator on functions on a Riemannian foliation of a compact, Riemannian manifold, and we show that the trace of this operator has a particular short time asymptotic expansion. The coefficients in this expansion…
