We analyze pseudospectra of the generator of the damped wave equation with unbounded damping. We show that the resolvent norm diverges as $\Re z \to - \infty$. The highly non-normal character of the operator is a robust effect preserved…

We give a refined description of the dominant spectrum of a non-local operator that models growth and equal mitosis of cells. More precisely we look at the spectrum in half planes at the right hand side of the first accumulation point of…
We derive an analytical expression for the scattering of a scalar wave from a perfectly conducting self-affine one dimensional surface in the framework of the Kirchhoff approximation. We show that most of the results can be recovered via a…
We extend some previous results for the damped wave equation in bounded domains in Euclidean spaces to the unbounded case. In particular, we show that if the damping term is of the form $\alpha a$ with bounded $a$ taking on negative values…
We introduce a spectral notion of graph complexity derived from the Weyl's law. We experimentally demonstrate its correlation to how well the graph can be embedded in a low-dimensional Euclidean space.
In the limit of small values of the aspect ratio parameter (or wave steepness) which measures the amplitude of a surface wave in units of its wave-length, a model equation is derived from the Euler system in infinite depth (deep water)…
We study the spectral asymptotics of wave equations on certain compact spacetimes where some variant of the Weyl asymptotic law is valid. The simplest example is the spacetime $S^1 \times S^2$. For the Laplacian on $S^1 \times S^2$ the Weyl…
We study the Weyl formula for the asymptotic number of eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator with Dirichlet boundary condition on a Riemannian manifold in the context of geometric flows. Assuming the eigenvalues to be the energies of…
Decay rates for the energy of solutions of the damped wave equation on the torus are studied. In particular, damping invariant in one direction and equal to a sum of squares of nonnegative functions with a particular number of derivatives…
We consider the wave equation with a distributional Dirac damping and Dirichlet boundary conditions on a compact interval. It is shown that the spectrum of the corresponding wave operator is fully determined by zeroes of an entire function.…
We calculate the trace and axial anomalies of $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ superconformal theories with exactly marginal deformations, on a surface with boundary. Extending recent work by Gomis et al, we derive the boundary contribution that…
In this paper we give an estimate on the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues of discretized elliptic boundary values problems. We first prove a simple min-max principle for selfadjoint operators on a Hilbert space. Then we show two sided…
We analyze the decay of spin waves into Stoner excitations in magnetic Weyl semimetals. The lifetime of a mode is found to have a universal dependence on its frequency and momentum, and on a few parameters that characterize the relativistic…

We use the Ulam method to study spectral properties of the Perron-Frobenius operators of dynamical maps in a chaotic regime. For maps with absorption we show that the spectrum is characterized by the fractal Weyl law recently established…
In this M.Sc. thesis (Universit\'e de Montr\'eal, 2007), we consider problems arising in the study of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a disk as well as on a circular sector. The first part of the thesis is concerned with the…
