Abstract

We discuss the semigroup domination on a Riemannian manifold with boundary. Our main interest is the Hodge-Kodaira Laplacian for differential forms. We consider two kinds of boundary conditions; the absolutely boundary condition and the relative boundary condition. Our main tool is the square field operator. We also develop a general theory of semigroup commutation.
