Heat content and horizontal mean curvature on the Heisenberg group

Abstract: We identify the short time asymptotics of the sub-Riemannian heat content for a smoothly bounded domain in the first Heisenberg group. Our asymptotic formula generalizes prior work by van den Berg-Le Gall and van den Berg-Gilkey to the sub-Riemannian context, and identifies the first few coefficients in the sub-Riemannian heat content in terms of the horizontal perimeter and the total horizontal mean curvature of the boundary. The proof is probabilistic, and relies on a characterization of the heat content in … Show more

“…By adapting to the sub-Riemannian case a technique due to Savo, we establish the existence of the full asymptotic series:We compute explicitly the coefficients up to order k = 5, in terms of sub-Riemannian invariants of the domain. Furthermore, we prove that every coefficient can be obtained as the limit of the corresponding one for a suitable Riemannian extension.As a particular case we recover, using non-probabilistic techniques, the order 2 formula recently obtained by Tyson and Wang in the Heisenberg group [TW18]. A consequence of our fifth-order analysis is the evidence for new phenomena in presence of characteristic points.…”

“…The horizontal mean curvature H : Σ → R is a geometrical invariant which arises naturally in different areas of geometric analysis. It appears in the theory of minimal surfaces [DGN07,HP08,Mon15,Pau04,CHMY05], in the study of the heat content asymptotics in sub-Riemannian manifolds [TW18,RR20], and in Steiner-type formulas for the volume of tubes around hypersurfaces [BFF + 15].…”
