Continuum limits of Laplace operators on general lattices are considered, and it is shown that these operators converge to elliptic operators on the Euclidean space in the sense of the generalized norm resolvent convergence. We then study…

This article investigates how the eigenvalues of the Neumann problem for an elliptic operator depend on the domain in the case when the domains involved are of class $C^1$. We consider the Laplacian and use results developed previously for…

It is known that the famous Heins Theorem (also known as the de Branges Lemma) about the minimum of two entire functions of minimal type does not extend to functions of finite exponential type. We study in detail pairs of entire functions…

We settle an old question about the existence of certain "sums-of-squares" formulas over a field F (which are the simplest examples of composition formulas for quadratic forms). A classical theorem says that if such a formula exists over a…
