Determining representations from invariant dimensions.
On obtient ici le développement asymptotique, en temps petit et sur la diagonale, du noyau de la chaleur associé à un opérateur dégénéré du second ordre satisfaisant à la condition forte d’hypoellipticité de Hörmander.
In the geometries of stratified groups, we provide differentiability theorems for both functions of bounded variation and Sobolev functions. Proofs are based on a systematic application of the Sobolev-Poincaré inequality and the so-called representation formula.
Our purpose is to generalize the dispersive inequalities for the wave equation on the Heisenberg group, obtained in [1], to H-type groups. On those groups we get optimal time decay for solutions to the wave equation (decay as ) and the Schrödinger equation (decay as ), p being the dimension of the center of the group. As a corollary, we obtain the corresponding Strichartz inequalities for the wave equation, and, assuming that p > 1, for the Schrödinger equation.
