Heat kernel estimate in a conical singular space

Abstract: Let $(X,g)$ be a product cone with the metric $g=dr^2+r^2h$, where $X=C(Y)=(0,\infty)_r\times Y$ and the cross section $Y$ is a $(n-1)$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold $(Y,h)$. We study the upper boundedness of heat kernel associated with the operator $L_V=-\Delta_g+V_0 r^{-2}$, where $-\Delta_g$ is the positive Friedrichs extension Laplacian on $X$ and $V=V_0(y) r^{-2}$ and $V_0\in\mathcal{C}^\infty(Y)$ is a real function such that the operator $-\Delta_h+V_0+(n-2)^2/4$ is a strictly positive operator on $L^2(Y)$.The new ingredient of the proof is the Hadamard parametrix and finite propagation speed of wave operator on $Y$.
