✦ Synopsis


On a large class of Riemannian manifolds with boundary, some dimension-free Harnack inequalities for the Neumann semigroup are proved to be equivalent to the convexity of the boundary and a curvature condition. In particular, for p t (x, y) the Neumann heat kernel w.r.t. a volume type measure ΞΌ and for K a constant, the curvature condition Ric -βˆ‡Z K together with the convexity of the boundary is equivalent to the heat kernel entropy inequality:

where ρ is the Riemannian distance. The main result is partly extended to manifolds with non-convex boundary and applied to derive the HWI inequality.

In this paper, we establish some sharp Sobolev trace inequalities on n-dimensional, compact Riemannian manifolds with smooth boundaries.

Through a general theory for relative spectral invariants, we study the zdeterminant of global boundary problems of APS-type. In particular, we compute the z-determinant ratio for Dirac-Laplacian boundary problems in terms of a scattering Fredholm determinant over the boundary.
