The question of self-adjoint realizations of sign-indefinite second order differential operators is discussed in terms of a model problem. Operators of the type $-\frac{d}{dx} \sgn (x) \frac{d}{dx}$ are generalized to finite, not…
For a finite graph, we establish natural isomorphisms between eigenspaces of a Laplace operator acting on functions on the edges and eigenspaces of a transfer operator acting on functions on one-sided infinite non-backtracking paths.…
Packing problems in discrete geometry can be modeled as finding independent sets in infinite graphs where one is interested in independent sets which are as large as possible. For finite graphs one popular way to compute upper bounds for…
The main objective of the present work is to study the negative spectrum of (differential) Laplace operators on metric graphs as well as their resolvents and associated heat semigroups. We prove an upper bound on the number of negative…
We consider the normalized Laplace operator for directed graphs with positive and negative edge weights. This generalization of the normalized Laplace operator for undirected graphs is used to characterize directed acyclic graphs. Moreover,…
Fractional-order elliptic problems are investigated in case of inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary data. The boundary integral form is proposed as a suitable mathematical model. The corresponding theory is completed by sharpening the mapping…
In this paper, we first develop the theory of Musielak-Orlicz spaces on locally finite graphs, including completeness, reflexivity, separability, and so on. Then, we give some elementary properties of double phase operators on locally…
We study the effect of regular and singular domain perturbations on layer potential operators for the Laplace equation. First, we consider layer potentials supported on a diffeomorphic image $\phi(\partial\Omega)$ of a reference set…
The Dirichlet problem on a bounded planar domain is more readily understood and solved for the Laplace operator than it is for a Schrodinger operator. When the potential function is small, we might hope to approximate the solution to the…
We construct in this article a class of closed semi-bounded quadratic forms on the space of square integrable functions over a smooth Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. Each of these quadratic forms specifies a semi-bounded…

We obtain inequalities for the Riesz means for the discrete spectrum of a class of self-adjoint compact integral operators. Such bounds imply some inequalities for the counting function of the Dirichlet boundary problem for the Laplace…
We define a number of natural (from geometric and combinatorial points of view) deformation spaces of valuations on finite graphs, and study functions over these deformation spaces. These functions include both direct metric invariants…
A generalization of Robin boundary conditions leading to self-adjoint operators is developed for the second derivative operator on metric graphs with compact completion and totally disconnected boundary. Harmonic functions and their…
We introduce a new constructive method for establishing lower bounds on convergence rates of periodic homogenization problems associated with divergence type elliptic operators. The construction is applied in two settings. First, we show…
The $\Gamma$-convergence of lower bounded quadratic forms is used to study the singular operator limit of thin tubes (i.e., the vanishing of the cross section diameter) of the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions; a procedure…
We lay out the foundations of the theory of second-order conformal superintegrable systems. Such systems are essentially Laplace equations on a manifold with an added potential: $(\Delta_n+V({\bf x}))\Psi=0$. Distinct families of…
Let $\Omega$ be a sufficiently regular bounded open connected subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $0 \in \Omega$ and that $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus \mathrm{cl}\Omega$ is connected. Then we take $q_{11},..., q_{nn}\in ]0,+\infty[$ and $p \in…
Our talk at Lisbon SAMP conference was based mainly on our recent results (published in Comm. Math. Phys.) on small diameter asymptotics for solutions of the Helmgoltz equation in networks of thin fibers. The present paper contains a…
