Davies type estimate and the heat kernel bound under the Ricci flow

Abstract: We prove a Davies type double integral estimate for the heat kernel $H(y,t;x,l)$ under the Ricci flow. As a result, we give an affirmative answer to a question proposed by Chow etc.. Moreover, we apply the Davies type estimate to provide a new proof of the Gaussian upper and lower bounds of $H(y,t;x,l)$ which were first shown by Chau-Tam-Yu.
