- The purpose of this article is to study possible concentrations of eigenfunc-tions of Laplace operators (or more generally quasi-modes) on product manifolds. We show that the approach of the first author and Zworski [10, 11] applies…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, with $L^2$-normalized Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions $\{e_j\}_j$, which satisfy $\Delta_g e_j = -\lambda_j^2 e_j$. We study the following inner product of eigenfunctions \[ \langle…

The eigenfunctions of the Laplacian are a central object from the realms of analytic number theory to geometric analysis. We prove that H\"ormander $L^2$-$L^{\infty}$ estimates are equivalent to restriction estimates to small geodesic…

We describe a new approach to understanding averages of high energy Laplace eigenfunctions, $u_h$, over submanifolds, $$ \Big|\int _H u_hd\sigma_H\Big| $$ where $H\subset M$ is a submanifold and $\sigma_H$ the induced by the Riemannian…

We study the asymptotic growth of the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on singular Riemannian manifolds, where all geometrical invariants appearing in classical spectral asymptotics are unbounded, and the total volume can be…

On a generic metric measured space, we introduce a notion of improved concentration of measure that takes into account the parallel enlargement of k distinct sets. We show that the k-th eigenvalues of the metric Laplacian gives exponential…

We discuss problems that relate curvature and concentration properties of eigenfunctions and quasimodes on compact boundaryless Riemannian manifolds. These include new sharp $L^q$-estimates, $q\in (2,q_c]$, $q_c=2(n+1)/(n-1)$, of…

In this short note we derive concentration inequalities for the empirical absolute moments of square symmetric matrices with independent symmetrically distributed +/-1 entries. Most of the previous results of this type are limited to…
