We use form methods to define suitable realisations of the Laplacian on a domain $\Omega$ with Wentzell boundary conditions, i.e. such that $\partial_{\mathrm{n}}u + \beta u + \Delta u = 0$ holds in a suitable sense on the boundary of…
Random hyperspherical harmonics are Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the unit $d$-dimensional sphere ($d\ge 2$). We study the convergence in Total Variation distance for their nonlinear statistics in the high energy limit, i.e., for…
For all functions on an arbitrary open set $\Omega\subset\R^3$ with zero boundary values, we prove the optimal bound \[ \sup_{\Omega}|u| \leq (2\pi)^{-1/2} \left(\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2 \,dx\, \int_{\Omega}|\Delta u|^2 \,dx\right)^{1/4}.…
For a given bounded Lipschitz set $\Omega$, we consider a Steklov--type eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian operator whose solutions provide extremal functions for the compact embedding $H^1(\Omega)\hookrightarrow L^2(\partial \Omega)$. We…
In this paper we study the $\Gamma$-limit, as $p\to 1$, of the functional $$ J_{p}(u)=\frac{\displaystyle\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^p + \beta\int_{ \partial \Omega} |u|^p}{\displaystyle \int_\Omega |u|^p}, $$ where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded…
The quantization problem for random fractals presents unique challenges due to the lack of uniform geometric scaling inherent in deterministic systems. In this article, we establish the almost sure quantization dimension for a class of…
We consider Laplacian eigenfunctions on a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. Under Neumann boundary conditions, the first eigenfunction is constant and the others have mean value 0. The situation is different for Dirichlet boundary…
We prove a local Faber-Krahn inequality for solutions $u$ to the Dirichlet problem for $\Delta + V$ on an arbitrary domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Suppose a solution $u$ assumes a global maximum at some point $x_0 \in \Omega$ and…
For a bounded open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2,$ we consider the largest eigenvalue $\tau_1(\Omega)$ of the Logarithmic potential operator $\mathcal{L}$. If $diam(\Omega)\le 1$, we prove reverse Faber-Krahn type inequalities for…
For $1<p\le 2$, we establish sharp inequalities for the Fourier transform of the characteristic function of the $l^p$-unit ball $B_p\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. We show that $$ \sup_{\boldsymbol{\omega} \in \mathbb{R}^2} \|\boldsymbol{\omega}…
We provide an answer to a question raised by Levine and Weinberger in their $1986$ paper concerning the difference between Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. More precisely, we show…
We develop sharp upper bounds for energy levels of the magnetic Laplacian on starlike plane domains, under either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions and assuming a constant magnetic field in the transverse direction. Our main result…
We prove a sharp quantitative version of the Faber--Krahn inequality for the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). To do so, we consider a deficit $\delta(f;\Omega)$ which measures by how much the STFT of a function $f\in L^2(\mathbb R)$…
We study the eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian in bounded simply connected plane domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$ using conformal transformations of the original problem to the weighted eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet…
Let Omega be a bounded, simply connected domain with boundary of class C^{1,1} except at finitely many points S_j where the boundary is locally a corner of aperture alpha_j<=pi/2. Improving on results of Grisvard, we show that the solution…
We consider the magnetic Dirichlet Laplacian with constant magnetic field on domains of finite measure. First, in the case of a disk, we prove that the eigenvalue branches with respect to the field strength behave asymptotically linear with…
Let $B_1$ be a ball of radius $r_1$ in $S^n(\Hy^n)$, and let $B_0$ be a smaller ball of radius $r_0$ such that $\bar{B_0}\subset B_1$. For $S^n$ we consider $r_1< \pi$. Let $u$ be a solution of the problem $-\La u =1$ in $\Om :=…
Suppose that A is a subset of F_2^n of density as close to 1/3 as possible. We show that the A(F_2^n)-norm (that is the sum of the absolute values of the Fourier transform) of the characterstic function of A is bounded below by an absolute…
Let $(M^{n}, g)$ be a closed connected Einstein space, $n=dim M ,$ and $\kappa_{0} $ be the lower bound of the sectional curvature. In this paper, we prove Udo Simon's conjecture: on closed Einstein spaces, $n\geq 3,$ there is no eigenvalue…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, connected, sufficiently smooth open set, $p>1$ and $\beta\in\mathbb R$. In this paper, we study the $\Gamma$-convergence, as $p\rightarrow 1^+$, of the functional \[ J_p(\varphi)=\frac{\int_\Omega F^p(\nabla…
