We study the minimizers of \begin{equation} \lambda_k^s(A) + |A| \end{equation} where $\lambda^s_k(A)$ is the $k$-th Dirichlet eigenvalue of the fractional Laplacian on $A$. Unlike in the case of the Laplacian, the free boundary of…
Harmonic maps are nonlinear extensions of harmonic functions. They are critical points of natural energy functionals between Riemannian manifolds. Such type of problems appear in Physics, Geometry of Finance and the study of regularity and…
We discuss optimal lower bounds for eigenvalues of Laplacians on weighted graphs. These bounds are formulated in terms of the geometry and, more specifically, the inradius of subsets of the graph. In particular, we study the first non-zero…

A Laplacian eigenfunction on a two-dimensional manifold dictates some natural partitions of the manifold; the most apparent one being the well studied nodal domain partition. An alternative partition is revealed by considering a set of…
