Abstract: We investigate the action of the heat operator on Jacobi forms. In particular, we present two explicit characterizations of this action on Jacobi forms of index $ 1$. Furthermore, we study congruences and filtrations of Jacobi forms. As an application, we determine when an analog of Atkin's $ U$-operator applied to a Jacobi form is nonzero modulo a prime.
