We determine a fundamental solution for the differential operator (Delta - lambda_z)^n on the Riemannian symmetric space G/K, where G is any complex semi-simple Lie group, and K is a maximal compact subgroup. We develop a global zonal…
The method of realizing certain self-reciprocal transforms as (absolute) scattering, previously presented in summarized form in the case of the Fourier cosine and sine transforms, is here applied to the self-reciprocal transform f(y)->…
We study the spectrum of the semiclassical Witten Laplacian $\Delta_{f}$ associated to a smooth function $f$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$. We assume that $f$ is a confining Morse--Bott function. Under this assumption we show that $\Delta_{f}$ admits…
The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta )^a$, $a\in(0,1)$, and its generalizations to variable-coefficient $2a$-order pseudodifferential operators $P$, are studied in $L_q$-Sobolev spaces of Bessel-potential type $H^s_q$. For a bounded open set…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, smooth, Riemannian manifold and $\{ \phi_h \}$ an $L^2$-normalized sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions with defect measure $\mu$. Let $H$ be a smooth hypersurface. Our main result says that when $\mu$ is…

We consider cuspidal representations in spaces of automorphic forms for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(I)$ of Hilbert modular groups for some number field $F$. To each such representation are associated the eigenvalue $\lambda_j$ of the…
This is a revised version of our short note [arxiv.math.DG/0403065] where we discuss the monotonicity of the eigen-values of the Laplacian operator to the Ricci-Hamilton flow on a compact or a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold. We…
Let $C$ be a complex algebraic curve uniformised by a Fuchsian group $\Gamma$. In the first part of this paper we identify the automorphism group of the solenoid associated with $\Gamma$ with the Belyaev completion of its commensurator…
The generalised eigenvalues for a pair of $N\times N$ matrices $(X_1,X_2)$ are defined as the solutions of the equation $\det (X_1-\lambda X_2)=0$, or equivalently, for $X_2$ invertible, as the eigenvalues of $X_2^{-1}X_1$. We consider…
The ordered eigenvalues define a Lipschitz map on the real vector space of Hermitian $d \times d$ matrices. We prove that this map acts continuously, but not uniformly continuously, by superposition on the Sobolev spaces $W^{1,q}$, for all…
