We introduce an analogue of Payne's nodal line conjecture, which asserts that the nodal (zero) set of any eigenfunction associated with the second eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded planar domain should reach the boundary of…
We consider a bounded open subset $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ of class $C^{1,\alpha}$ for some $\alpha\in]0,1[$ and we solve the Neumann problem for the Helmholtz equation both in $\Omega$ and in the exterior of $\Omega$. We look for…
We consider the inverse problem of recovering an isotropic quasilinear conductivity from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map when the conductivity depends on the solution and its gradient. We show that the conductivity can be recovered on an open…
We initiate the study of inverse source problems for quasilinear elliptic equations of the form \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \nabla \cdot (\gamma(x,u,\nabla u) \nabla u) = F & \text{in } \Omega, \\ u = f & \text{on } \partial\Omega,…

The unique determination of a measurable conductivity from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map of the equation $\mathrm{div} (\sigma \nabla u) = 0$ is the subject of this note. A new strategy, based on Clifford algebras and a higher dimensional…
Let $f:[0,+\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ be a (locally) Lipschitz function and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ a $C^{1,\alpha}$ domain whose boundary is unbounded and connected. If there exists a positive bounded solution to the overdetermined…
There are several hybrid inverse problems for equations of the form $\nabla \cdot D \nabla u - \sigma u = 0$ in which we want to obtain the coefficients $D$ and $\sigma$ on a domain $\Omega$ when the solutions $u$ are known. One approach is…
Now a final and maybe simplest formulation of the enclosure method applied to inverse obstacle problems governed by partial differential equations in a {\it spacial domain with an outer boundary} over a finite time interval is fixed. The…
In this short note, we investigate an inverse source problem associated with a nonlocal elliptic equation $\left( -\nabla \cdot \sigma \nabla \right)^s u =F$ that is given in a bounded open set $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, for $n\geq 3$…
We prove that the isoperimetric profile of a convex domain $\Omega$ with compact closure in a Riemannian manifold $(M^{n+1},g)$ satisfies a second order differential inequality which only depends on the dimension of the manifold and on a…
For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m, m\geq 2,$ of class $C^0$, the properties are studied of fields of `good directions', that is the directions with respect to which $\partial\Omega$ can be locally represented as the graph of a…
We investigate the continuity of boundary operators, such as the Neumann-to-Dirichlet map, with respect to the coefficient matrices of the underlying elliptic equations. We show that for nonsmooth coefficients the correct notion of…
Comparing Neumann and Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq\Rbb^n$ is a topic that goes back at least to the work of P\'olya \cite{polya}. We study the effect of the isoperimetric ratio of $\Omega$ on…
