The Laplace Operator

We consider a space X of polynomial type and a self-adjoint operator on L2(X) which is assumed to have a heat kernel satisfying second-order Gaussian bounds. We prove that any power of the operator has a heat kernel satisfying Gaussian bounds with a precise constant in the Gaussian. This constant was previously identified by Barbatis and Davies in the case of powers of the Laplace operator on RN. In this case we prove slightly sharper bounds and show that the above-mentioned constant is optimal.

AbstractGiven a Hodge manifold, it is introduced a self-adjoint operator on the space of endomorphisms of the global holomorphic sections of the polarization line bundle. Such operator is shown to approximate the Laplace operator on functions when composed with Berezin-Toeplitz quantization map and its adjoint, up to an error which tends to zero when taking higher powers of the polarization line bundle.

The Laplace Operator

In this article, it has been observed that a unit Killing vector field ξ on an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M,g), influences its algebra of smooth functions C∞(M). For instance, if h is an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator Δ with eigenvalue λ, then ξ(h) is also eigenfunction with same eigenvalue. Additionally, it has been observed that the Hessian Hh(ξ,ξ) of a smooth function h∈C∞(M) defines a self adjoint operator ⊡ξ and has properties similar to most of properties of the Laplace operator on a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g). We study several properties of functions associated to the unit Killing vector field ξ. Finally, we find characterizations of the odd dimensional sphere using properties of the operator ⊡ξ and the nontrivial solution of Fischer–Marsden differential equation, respectively.

AbstractWe derive upper Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel on complete, noncompact locally symmetric spaces M=Γ∖X with nonpositive curvature. Our bounds contain the Poincaré series of the discrete group Γ and therefore we also provide upper bounds for this series.

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the monotonicity of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator under a forced mean curvature flow (MCF). By imposing conditions associated with the mean curvature of the initial hypersurface and the coefficient function of the forcing term of a forced MCF, and some special pinching conditions on the second fundamental form of the initial hypersurface, we prove that the first nonzero closed eigenvalues of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator are monotonic under the forced MCF, respectively, which partially generalize Mao and Zhao’s work. Moreover, we give an example to specify applications of conclusions obtained above.
