Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a quasiconvex Lipschitz domain and $A(x)$ be a $d \times d$ uniformly elliptic, symmetric matrix with Lipschitz coefficients. Assume a nontrivial $u$ solves $-\nabla \cdot (A(x) \nabla u) = 0$ in…
In this paper, we consider the well-known following shape optimization problem: $$\lambda_2(\Omega^*)=\min_{\stackrel{|\Omega|=V_0} {\Omega\textrm{ convex}}} \lambda_2(\Omega),$$ where $\lambda_2(\Om)$ denotes the second eigenvalue of the…
It is well known that real measures on the circle are characterized by their Herglotz transform, an analytic function in the unit disc. Invariance of the measure under N-multiplication translates into a functional equation for the Herglotz…
We consider the zeta function $\zeta_\Omega$ for the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator of a simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ bounded by a smooth closed curve of perimeter $2\pi$. We prove that $\zeta_\Omega''(0)\ge…
We study a $(k+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic space of a negative constant sectional curvature $\kappa=-1/\rho^2$. Let $\lambda$ be a real eigenvalue and $f_{\lambda} (x)$ be an eigenfunction of the hyperbolic Laplacian assuming a non-zero…

We consider minimizers of \[ F(\lambda_1(\Omega),\ldots,\lambda_N(\Omega)) + |\Omega|, \] where $F$ is a function nondecreasing in each parameter, and $\lambda_k(\Omega)$ is the $k$-th Dirichlet eigenvalue of $\Omega$. This includes, in…
We prove a necessary optimality condition of Euler--Lagrange type for the calculus of variations with Omega derivatives, which turns out to be sufficient under jointly convexity of the Lagrangian.
The main aim of this article is to prove quantitative spectral inequalities for the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions. More specifically, we prove sharp quantitative stability for the Faber-Krahn inequality in terms of Newtonian…
In this paper, we considered the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta_\epsilon$ on $\Omega_\epsilon=\{(x,y): -l_1<x<l_2, 0<y<\epsilon h(x)]\}$ where $ l_1,l_2>0$ and $h(x)$ is a positive analytic function having $0$ the only point…
