Spectral gap for the Brownian motion with drift on a compact manifold
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, $X$ a smooth vector field on $M$. Consider the Brownian motion $t\mapsto B_t$ on $M$ with drift $X$, so that its generator is $L=\Delta +X$. ...

Feynman–Kac formula for other operators
I recently came across the Feynman-Kac formula which states that given an open domain $\Omega\in\mathbb{R}^n$ and $f \in L^2(\Omega)$
where $x \in \Omega$ and $t > 0$, then
$e^{t\Delta_D}f(x) = ...
