In this short note, we present a novel method for computing exact lower and upper bounds of eigenvalues of a symmetric tridiagonal interval matrix. Compared to the known methods, our approach is fast, simple to present and to implement, and…
If the boundary of a domain in three dimensions is smooth enough, then the decay rate of the eigenvalues of the Neumann-Poincar\'e operator is known and it is optimal. In this paper, we deal with domains with less regular boundaries and…
In this paper we prove that the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_1^N$ of an $N$-sided regular polygon of fixed area is a monotonically decreasing function of $N$ for all $N \geq 3$, as well as the monotonicity of the quotients…
In this paper, we use a weighted isoperimetric inequality to give a lower bound on the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian on a bounded domain inside a Euclidean cone. Our bound is sharp, in that only sectors realize it. This result…
A well known conjecture of Yau states that the first eigenvalue of every closed minimal hypersurface $M^n$ in the unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$ is just its dimension $n$. The present paper shows that Yau conjecture is true for minimal…
In this paper we continue our study of the Laplacian on manifolds with axial analytic asymptotically cylindrical ends initiated in~arXiv:1003.2538. By using the complex scaling method and the Phragm\'{e}n-Lindel\"{o}f principle we prove…
In this paper, we classify non-geometric distance-regular graphs of diameter at least $3$ with smallest eigenvalue at least $-3$. This is progress towards what is hoped to be an eventual complete classification of distance-regular graphs…
The third eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian on a simply-connected planar domain of given area is bounded above by the third eigenvalue of a disjoint union of two disks, provided the Robin parameter lies in a certain range and is scaled in…
We consider the minimisation of Dirichlet eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, $k \in \N$, of the Laplacian on cuboids of unit measure in $\R^3$. We prove that any sequence of optimal cuboids in $\R^3$ converges to a cube of unit measure in the sense…
In this paper, we establish a sharp lower bound for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian on bounded domains of a complete, non-compact Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature.
We consider the lower order eigenvalues of poly-Laplacian with any order on spherical domains. We obtain universal inequalities for them and show that our results are optimal.
This paper establishes new upper bounds for the sum of the $k$ largest eigenvalues of symmetric matrices. When applied to the adjacency matrix of a graph, our results improve upon a related bound due to Mohar {\bf [On the sum of k largest…
Jakobson and Nadirashvili \cite{JN} constructed a sequence of eigenfunctions on $T^2$ with a bounded number of critical points, answering in the negative the question raised by Yau \cite{Yau1} which asks that whether the number of the…
We show that every minimum area isosceles triangle containing a given triangle $T$ shares a side and an angle with $T$. This proves a conjecture of Nandakumar motivated by a computational problem. We use our result to deduce that for every…
We establish an explicit lower bound of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on K\"ahler manifolds based off the comparison results of Li and Wang. The lower bound will depend on the diameter, dimension, holomorphic sectional curvature and…
