Singularities of hypoelliptic Green functions. (Singularités des fonctions de Green hypoelliptiques.) (French) Zbl 0868.58083

This paper is devoted to a precise description of the singularity near the diagonal of the Green function associated to a hypoelliptic operator using a probabilistic approach. Examples and some applications to potential theory are given.
