AbstractWe prove that, in a setting of local Dirichlet forms on metric measure spaces, a two-sided sub-Gaussian estimate of the heat kernel is equivalent to the conjunction of the volume doubling property, the elliptic Harnack inequality, and a certain estimate of the capacity between concentric balls. The main technical tool is the equivalence between the capacity estimate and the estimate of a mean exit time in a ball that uses two-sided estimates of a Green function in a ball.

In this paper, we consider symmetric jump processes of mixed-type on metric measure spaces under general volume doubling condition, and establish stability of two-sided heat kernel estimates and heat kernel upper bounds. We obtain their stable equivalent characterizations in terms of the jumping kernels, variants of cut-off Sobolev inequalities, and the Faber-Krahn inequalities. In particular, we establish stability of heat kernel estimates for α \alpha -stable-like processes even with α ≥ 2 \alpha \ge 2 when the underlying spaces have walk dimensions larger than 2 2 , which has been one of the major open problems in this area.

AbstractLet M be a complete, non-compact, connected Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below by a negative constant. A sufficient condition is obtained for open and connected sets D in M for which the corresponding Dirichlet heat semigroup is intrinsically ultracontractive. That condition is formulated in terms of capacitary width. It is shown that both the reciprocal of the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian acting in $$L^2(D)$$ L 2 ( D ) , and the supremum of the torsion function for D are comparable with the square of the capacitary width for D if the latter is sufficiently small. The technical key ingredients are the volume doubling property, the Poincaré inequality and the Li-Yau Gaussian estimate for the Dirichlet heat kernel at finite scale.

A new condenser capacity $\CMp(E,G)$ is introduced as an alternative to the classical Dirichlet capacity in a metric measure space $X$. For $p>1$, it coincides with the $M_p$-modulus of the curve family $\Gamma(E,G)$ joining $\partial G$ to an arbitrary set $E \subset G$ and, for $p = 1$, it lies between $AM_1(\Gamma(E,G))$ and $M_1(\Gamma(E,G))$. Moreover, the $\CMp(E,G)$-capacity has good measure theoretic regularity properties with respect to the set $E$. The $\CMp(E,G)$-capacity uses Lipschitz functions and their upper gradients. The doubling property of the measure $\mu$ and Poincar\'e inequalities in $X$ are not needed.

In the last three years a number of people have investigated the orthogonality relations for square integrable representations of non-unimodular groups, extending the known results for the unimodular case. The results are stated in the language of left (or generalized) Hilbert algebras. This paper is devoted to proving the orthogonality relations without recourse to left Hilbert algebra techniques. Our main technical tool is to realise the square integrable representation in question in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space.
