We study spectral properties of sub-Riemannian Laplacians, which are hypoelliptic operators. The main objective is to obtain quantum ergodicity results, what we have achieved in the 3D contact case. In the general case we study the small-time asymptotics of sub-Riemannian heat kernels. We prove that they are given by the nilpotentized heat kernel. In the equiregular case, we infer the local and microlocal Weyl law, putting in light the Weyl measure in sR geometry. This measure coincides with the Popp measure in low dimension but differs from it in general. We prove that spectral concentration occurs on the shief generated by Lie brackets of length r-1, where r is the degree of nonholonomy. In the singular case, like Martinet or Grushin, the situation is more involved but we obtain small-time asymptotic expansions of the heat kernel and the Weyl law in some cases. Finally, we give the Weyl law in the general singular case, under the assumption that the singular set is stratifiable.

  1. Optimal geometric barriers for weighted observability of heat semigroups on metric measure spaces

    math.AP 2026-07 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    If a heat-observability inequality with weight h holds from a set ω, then h(t) decays at least like exp(-κ L(ω)²/t) for every κ<1/2, yielding the sharp lower bound γ≥L(ω)²/2.

  2. Coarse nodal counts on sub-Riemannian manifolds

    math.SP 2026-08 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    On compact quotients of stratified groups, the number of δ-deep nodal domains and coarse zero-set features of sums of sub-Laplacian eigenfunctions grows polynomially in the eigenvalue bound, with arbitrarily small exp...

  3. Pleijel's theorem for a class of degenerate elliptic operators

    math.AP 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Proves Pleijel-type asymptotic upper bound on nodal domains of eigenfunctions for a class of degenerate elliptic operators including Baouendi-Grushin, matching the Dirichlet Laplacian constant.

  4. Quantum limits of the Martinet sub-Laplacian

    math.AP 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The Martinet sub-Laplacian's quantum limits are described by four adapted two-microlocal measures whose concentration and invariance are governed by quartic and harmonic oscillators and a drift along the Reeb flow.
