This paper is about analysis on Alexandrov spaces. Earlier work of Otsu and the third of these authors demonstrated the existence of a \(C^{1}\)-differentiable structure on the set of nonsingular points. This allows one to define \(L^{p}\) and \(W^{1,p}.\) The first main result here is that if \(\Omega \) is relatively compact, then \(( W^{1,2}_{0} (\Omega) \subset L^{2} (\Omega))\) is compact. They define a Dirichlet form on \(( W^{1,2}_{0} (\Omega) \times W^{1,2}_{0}(\Omega))\) and a corresponding Laplacian. This Laplacian has discrete spectrum and its eigenfunctions form a complete basis for \(W^{1,2}_{0} (\Omega) \) and \(L^{2} (\Omega).\) The existence of a heat kernel is proved and it is shown that solutions to the heat equation and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian are locally Hölder continuous.
