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 obtain two-sided heat kernel estimates for Riemannian manifolds with ends with mixed boundary condition, provided that the heat kernels for the ends are well understood. These results extend previous results of Grigor'yan and…
We study strong ratio limit properties of the quotients of the heat kernels of subcritical and critical operators which are defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold.
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…
We compute the quantum effective action induced by integrating out fermions in Yang-Mills matrix models on a 4-dimensional background, expanded in powers of a gauge-invariant UV cutoff. The resulting action is recast into the form of…
Based on the Mehler heat kernel of the Schroedinger operator for a free electron in a constant magnetic field an estimate for the kernel of E_A is derived, where E_A represents the kinetic energy of a Dirac electron within the…
The main results of the article are short time estimates and asymptotic estimates for the first two order derivatives of the logarithmic heat kernel of a complete Riemannian manifold. We remove all curvature restrictions and also develop…
In a 1991 paper by Buttig and Eichhorn, the existence and uniqueness of a differential forms heat kernel on open manifolds of bounded geometry was proven. In that paper, it was shown that the heat kernel obeyed certain properties, one of…
The heat kernel method is extended to the case of finite temperature. Special emphasis is given to the study of gauge theories. Due to the compactness of space in the Euclidean time direction (inverse temperature) the field strength cannot…
It is shown that the heat kernel operator for the Laplace operator on any covariantly constant curved background, i.e. in symmetric spaces, may be presented in form of an averaging over the Lie group of isometries with some nontrivial…
We give a short proof of a strong version of the short time asymptotic expansion of heat kernels associated to Laplace type operators acting on sections of vector bundles over compact Riemannian manifolds, including exponential decay of the…
Let $F$ be a number field, let $\mathbb{A}_F$ be its ring of adeles, and let $g_1,g_2,h_1,h_2 \in \mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{A}_F)$. Previously the author provided an absolutely convergent geometric expression for the four variable kernel…
We show that the long-standing problem of gauge dependence of the effective potential arises due to the factorisation of the determinant of operators, which is invalid when we take the zeta-regularised trace of the operators. We show by…
We study the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization on symplectic manifolds making use of the full off-diagonal asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel. We give also a characterization of Toeplitz operators in terms of their asymptotic expansion.…
The paper is devoted to a local heat kernel, which is a special part of the standard heat kernel. Locality means that all considerations are produced in an open convex set of a smooth Riemannian manifold. We study such properties and…
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…
We study the relationship between the geometry and the Laplace spectrum of a Riemannian orbifold O via its heat kernel; as in the manifold case, the time-zero asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel furnishes geometric information about O.…
Special case calculations are presented, which can be used to put restrictions on the general form of heat kernel coefficients for transmittal boundary conditions and for generalized bag boundary conditions.
We consider integral kernels for functions $f(\hat F)$ of a minimal second-order differential operator $\hat F(\nabla)$ on a curved spacetime. We show that they can be expanded in a functional series, analogous to the DeWitt expansion for…
We compute the first four heat-kernel coefficients required for the renormalization of Linearized Massive Gravity. We focus on the Fierz-Pauli theory in a curved spacetime, describing the propagation of a massive spin $2$ field in a…
