We prove sharp bounds on eigenvalues of the Laplacian that complement the Faber--Krahn and Luttinger inequalities. In particular, we prove that the ball maximizes the first eigenvalue and minimizes the spectral zeta function and heat trace.…

We prove two unconditional upper bounds on the gaps between ordinates of consecutive non-trivial zeros of a general $L$-function $L(s)$. This extends previous work of Hall and Hayman (2000) on the Riemann zeta-function and work of Siegel…

We prove that the first (nontrivial) Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator $$ L(u)=\Delta u-\langle\nabla u,x\rangle\,, $$ as a function of the domain, is convex with respect to the Minkowski addition, and we characterize…
