I discuss the trace of a heat kernel Tr[e^(-tA)] for compact fuzzy spaces. Incontinuum theory its asymptotic expansion for t -> +0 provides geometricquantities, and therefore may be used to extract effective geometric quantitiesfor fuzzy spaces. For compact fuzzy spaces, however, an asymptotic expansionfor t -> +0 is not appropriate because of their finiteness. It is shown thateffective geometric quantities are found as coefficients of an approximatepower-law expansion of the trace of a heat kernel valid for intermediate valuesof t. An efficient method to obtain these coefficients is presented and appliedto some known fuzzy spaces to check its validity.Comment: Minor changes, 8 pages, 12 figures, LaTeX, JHEPclas
