Abstract

The main result of this paper is a sufficient condition to have a compact Thom–Mather stratified pseudomanifold endowed with a \(\hat{c}\)-iterated edge metric on its regular part q-parabolic. Moreover, besides stratified pseudomanifolds, the q-parabolicity of other classes of singular spaces, such as compact complex Hermitian spaces, is investigated.

Notes

  1. \(\mathrm {e}^{-tH_g}\) has a smooth integral kernel which satisfies \(\int _M \mathrm {e}^{-tH_g}(x,y)\mathrm{d}\mu _g(y)\le 1\) for all \(t>0\), \(x\in M\), so that one can define \(\mathrm {e}^{-tH_g}f(x)\) for bounded functions f on M by \(\mathrm {e}^{-tH_g}f(x):=\int _M \mathrm {e}^{-tH_g}(x,y)f(y)\mathrm{d}\mu _g.\)
