Abstract
We show that a near‐diagonal lower bound of the heat kernel of a Dirichlet form on a metric measure space with a regular measure implies an on‐diagonal upper bound. If in addition the Dirichlet form is local and regular, then we obtain a full off‐diagonal upper bound of the heat kernel provided the Dirichlet heat kernel on any ball satisfies a near‐diagonal lower estimate. This reveals a new phenomenon in the relationship between the lower and upper bounds of the heat kernel. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We obtain global in time bounds for the heat kernel G of the Schro dinger operator L=&2+V. The potential V satisfies V(x)t &CÂd(x) b near infinity with b # (0, ). The result can be described as follows. Suppose L is positive and b=2. Then G=G(x, t; y, 0) has a global upper bound which is a standard
We consider the exploration of random digraphs. We give upper and lower bounds for the expected number of edges traversed during an exploration. This result implies a lower bound for the expected running time of a wide class of algorithms, e.g., breadth-first-search, depth-first-search, and algorith
A channel graph is the union of all paths between a given input and a given output in an interconnection network. At any moment in time, each vertex in such a graph is either idle or busy. The search problem that we consider is to find a path (from the given input to the given output) consisting ent
