The Heat Kernel for H-type Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
Theorem 1 gives an explicit formula for the heat kernel on an H -type group. Folland (2] has shown that for stratified nilpotent Lie groups the heat semigroup is a semigroup of kernel operators on LP, 1 5 p < oo and on Co. Cygan (1] has obtained formulas for heat kernels for any two step nilpotent simply connected Lie group. Cygan found the heat kernel for a free simply connected two step nilpotent group, G, using the representation of L1 (G) obtained from the irreducible unitary representation of G in a Hilbert space. He then obtained the heat kernel for a general two step nilpotent Lie group by the "method of descent".

Gradient Estimates for the Subelliptic Heat Kernel on H-type Groups
We prove the following gradient inequality for the subelliptic heat kernel on nilpotent Lie groups G of H-type: |∇Ptf | ≤ KPt(|∇f |) where Pt is the heat semigroup corresponding to the sublaplacian on G, ∇ is the subelliptic gradient, and K is a constant. This extends a result of H.-Q. Li [10] for the Heisenberg group. The proof is based on pointwise heat kernel estimates, and follows an approa...
متن کاملPrecise Estimates for the Subelliptic Heat Kernel on H-type Groups
We establish precise upper and lower bounds for the subelliptic heat kernel on nilpotent Lie groups G of H-type. Specifically, we show that there exist positive constants C1, C2 and a polynomial correction function Qt on G such that C1Qte − d2 4t ≤ pt ≤ C2Qte d2 4t where pt is the heat kernel, and d the Carnot-Carathéodory distance on G. We also obtain similar bounds on the norm of its subellip...
متن کاملThe Heat Kernel and the Riesz Transforms on the Quaternionic Heisenberg Groups
As the heat kernel plays an important role in many problems in harmonic analysis, an explicit usable expression is very much desirable. An explicit expression for the heat kernel for the Heisenberg group Hn = C ×R was obtained by Hulanicki [9] and by Gaveau [7]. Gaveau [7] also obtained the heat kernel for free nilpotent Lie groups of step two. Cygan [4] obtained the heat kernel for all nilpote...
متن کاملQuasi-invariance for Heat Kernel Measures on Sub-riemannian Infinite-dimensional Heisenberg Groups
We study heat kernel measures on sub-Riemannian infinitedimensional Heisenberg-like Lie groups. In particular, we show that Cameron-Martin type quasi-invariance results hold in this subelliptic setting and give L-estimates for the Radon-Nikodym derivatives. The main ingredient in our proof is a generalized curvature-dimension estimate which holds on approximating finite-dimensional projection g...
متن کاملAlmost Sure Convergence of Kernel Bivariate Distribution Function Estimator under Negative Association
Let {Xn ,n=>1} be a strictly stationary sequence of negatively associated random variables, with common distribution function F. In this paper, we consider the estimation of the two-dimensional distribution function of (X1, Xk+1) for fixed $K /in N$ based on kernel type estimators. We introduce asymptotic normality and properties and moments. From these we derive the optimal bandwidth...
