Abstract: Upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel on complete Riemannian manifolds were obtained in a series of pioneering works due to Cheng-Li-Yau, Cheeger-Yau and Li-Yau. However, these estimates do not give a complete picture of the heat kernel for all times and all pairs of points. Inspired by the work of Davies-Mandouvalos on mathbbHn+1, we study heat kernel bounds on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds that are asymptotically hyperbolic in the sense of Mazzeo-Melrose. Under the assumption of no eigenvalues and no resonance at the bottom of the continuous spectrum, we show that the heat kernel on such manifolds is comparable to the heat kernel on hyperbolic space of the same dimension (expressed as a function of time t and geodesic distance r), uniformly for all tin(0,infty) and all rin[0,infty). Our approach is microlocal and based on the resolvent on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, constructed in the celebrated work of Mazzeo-Melrose, as well as its high energy asymptotic, due to Melrose-S`{a} Barreto-Vasy.
