Heat kernels for a class of hybrid evolution equations

From MaRDI portal
Publication:6170118



Abstract: The aim of this paper is to construct (explicit) heat kernels for some hybrid evolution equations which arise in physics, conformal geometry and subelliptic PDEs. Hybrid means that the relevant partial differential operator appears in the form mathscrL1+mathscrL2−partialt, but the variables cannot be decoupled. As a consequence, the relative heat kernel cannot be obtained as the product of the heat kernels of the operators mathscrL1−partialt and mathscrL2−partialt. Our approach is new and ultimately rests on the generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators in the opening of H"ormander's 1967 groundbreaking paper on hypoellipticity.
