In this paper, we give infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected $k$-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue in half open interval $[-1-\sqrt2, -2)$ and also infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected $k$-regular…

Solving the Plateau problem means to find the surface with minimal area among all surfaces with a given boundary. Part of the problem actually consists of giving a suitable definition to the notions of 'surface', 'area' and 'boundary'. In…

Let $C_a$ be the central Cantor set obtained by removing a central interval of length $1-2a$ from the unit interval, and continuing this process inductively on each of the remaining two intervals. We prove that if $\log b/\log a$ is…

We study an optimal M-partition problem for the Yamabe equation on the round sphere, in the presence of some particular symmetries. We show that there is a correspondence between solutions to this problem and least-energy sign-changing…

In this paper, we consider the quasilinear Schr\"{o}dinger system in $\mathbb R^{N}$($N\geq3$): $$\left\{\begin{align} &-\Delta u+ A(x)u-\frac{1}{2}\triangle(u^{2})u=\frac{2\alpha }{\alpha+\beta}|u|^{\alpha-2}u|v|^{\beta},\\ &-\Delta v+…

We present some new problems in spectral optimization. The first one consists in determining the best domain for the Dirichlet energy (or for the first eigenvalue) of the {\it metric Laplacian}, and we consider in particular Riemannian or…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension 3, and let \mathscr{F} denote the collection of all embedded surfaces homeomorphic to \mathbb{RP}^2. We study the infimum of the areas of all surfaces in \mathscr{F}. This quantity is…

We present a study of the spectral properties like the energy spectrum, the eigenmodes and density of states of a classical finite system of two-dimensional (2D) charged particles which are confined by a quadratic potential. Using the…

It is shown that, somewhat similar to the case of classical Baecklund transformations for surfaces of constant negative curvature, infinitely many axially symmetric minimal hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional Minkowski-space can be obtained, in…

Let the set $\Omega_\varepsilon$ be obtained from the bounded domain $\Omega$ by removing a family of $\varepsilon$-periodically distributed identical balls. In $\Omega_\varepsilon$ one considers the standard Steklov spectral problem. It is…

We develop a unified treatment of the non-Abelian Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect in isotropic multiband systems, namely, the scattering of particles on a gauge field corresponding to a noncommutative Lie group. We present a complex contour…

Quasi-normal-eigenvalue optimization is studied under constraints $b_1(x) \le B(x) \le b_2 (x)$ on structure functions $B$ of 2-side open optical or mechanical resonators. We prove existence of various optimizers and provide an example when…

We show that for the regular n-simplex, the 1-codimensional central slice that's parallel to a facet will achieve the minimum area (up to a 1-o(1) factor) among all 1-codimensional central slices, thus improving the previous best known…

We address the problem of splitting of eigenvalues of the Neumann Laplacian under singular domain perturbations. We consider a domain perturbed by the excision of a small spherical hole shrinking to an interior point. Our main result…

In many systems, the electronic energy spectrum is a continuous or singular continuous multifractal set with a distribution of scaling exponents. Here, we show that for a quasiperiodic potential, the multifractal energy spectrum can have a…

This note deals with nodal domains of random monochromatic plane waves. It was shown by Nazarov and Sodin that the expected number of such nodal domains included in a disk of radius $R$ is proportional to $\pi R^2$ in the large $R$ limit.…

In the ongoing programme to classify noncommutative projective surfaces (connected graded noetherian domains of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension three) a natural question is to determine the minimal models within any birational class. In this…
