The second-order gradient estimates for the \(V\)-heat kernel and its applications. (English) Zbl 1527.35102

Summary: In this paper, we derive the second-order gradient estimates for the \(V\)-heat kernel on complete Riemannian manifolds with Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature bounded from below. Applying these estimates, we proved that the \(f\)-Riesz transform on a complete manifold with nonnegative \(N\)-Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature is of weak type (1,1).
