In this paper we show existence of traces of functions of bounded variation on the boundary of a certain class of domains in metric measure spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a $1$-Poincar\'e inequality, and obtain $L^1$…

In this paper we consider the problem of prescribing the nodal set of low-energy eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Our main result is that, given any separating closed hypersurface \Sigma in a compact n-manifold M, there is a Riemannian…

We show that in the analytic category, given a Riemannian metric $g$ on a hypersurface $M\subset \Z$ and a symmetric tensor $W$ on $M$, the metric $g$ can be locally extended to a Riemannian Einstein metric on $Z$ with second fundamental…

Let ${\bf M}=(M_1,\ldots, M_k)$ be a tuple of real $d\times d$ matrices. Under certain irreducibility assumptions, we give checkable criteria for deciding whether ${\bf M}$ possesses the following property: there exist two constants…

We consider functions with an asymptotic mean value property, known to characterize harmonicity in Riemannian manifolds, in doubling metric measure spaces. We show that the strongly amv-harmonic functions are H\"older continuous for any…

We study global obstructions to the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor on a Riemannian 3-manifold. As a topological obstruction, we first show that if the 3-manifold is closed, then certain choices of the eigenvalues are prohibited: in…

In this note we generalize our previous result, stating that if $(M_1,g_1)$ and $(M_2,g_2)$ are compact Riemannian manifolds, then any Einstein metric on the product $M:=M_1\times M_2$ of the form $g=e^{2f_1}g_1+e^{2f_2}g_2$, with $f_1\in…

Several classes of tempered measures are characterised that are eigenmeasures of the Fourier transform, the latter viewed as a linear operator on (generally unbounded) Radon measures on $\RR^d$. In particular, we classify all periodic…

We study two sorts of actions on the space of conjugacy classes of irreducible $SU_2$-representations of a knot group. One of them is an involution which comes from the algebraic structure of $SU_2$ and the other is the action by the outer…

Our topological setting is a smooth compact manifold of dimension two or higher with smooth boundary. Although this underlying topological structure is smooth, the Riemannian metric tensor is only assumed to be bounded and measurable. This…

Aronszajn, Krzywicki and Szarski proved in \cite{AKS62} a strong unique continuation result for differential forms, satisfying a certain first order differential inequality, on Riemannian manifolds with empty boundary. The present paper…

In this paper, we study the properties of the Eberlein convolution of measures and introduce a twisted version of it. For functions we show that the twisted Eberlein convolution can be seen as a translation invariant function-valued inner…

On the space of isometric embeddings $f_g$ of metrics $g$ on a manifold $M^n$ into the standard $(\mb{S}^{\tn=\tn(n)},\tg)$, we consider the total exterior scalar curvature $\Theta_{f_g}(M)$, and squared $L^2$ norm of the mean curvature…

This paper is concerned with the structure of the set of Riemannian metrics on a connected manifold such that the corresponding Laplace--Beltrami operator has an eigenvalue of a given multiplicity. The starting point of our investigation is…

Conformal symmetry is broken by a flat or spherical defect operator $\mathcal{D}$. We show that this defect operator, may be identified as a pair of twist operators which are inserted at the tips of its causal diamond. Any $k-$point…

In this work we consider the $\eta$-invariant for pseudodifferential operators of tensor product type, also called bisingular pseudodifferential operators. We study complex powers of classical bisingular operators. We prove the trace…

C-eigenvalues of piezoelectric-type tensors which are real and always exist, are introduced by Chen et al. [1]. And the largest C-eigenvalue for the piezoelectric tensor determines the highest piezoelectric coupling constant. In this paper,…
