We obtain the sharp version of the uncertainty principle recently introduced in [47], and improved by [13], relating the size of the zero set of a continuous function having zero mean and the optimal transport cost between the mass of the…

In this paper we consider eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a planar domain with polygonal boundary with Dirichlet, Neumann, or mixed boundary conditions. The main result is a quantitative estimate on the $L^2$ mass of eigenfunctions near…

In this article we examine the concentration and oscillation effects developed by high-frequency eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in a compact Riemannian manifold. More precisely, we are interested in the structure of the possible…

Let $M$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian volume measure is denoted by $\sigma$. Let $f: M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a non-constant eigenfunction of the Laplacian. The random wave conjecture suggests that in…

Let $C$ be a configuration of $n$ ovals in $\mathbb{S}^2$. We show that there is a Riemannian metric $g$ over $\mathbb{S}^2$ with a Laplacian eigenfunction whose zero set is $C$, and the corresponding eigenvalue is the $k$-th eigenvalue for…

The aim of this paper is give a simple proof of some results in \cite{Jun Ling-2006-IJM} and \cite{JunLing-2007-AGAG}, which are very deep studies in the sharp lower bound of the first eigenvalue in the Laplacian operator on compact…

A Laplacian eigenfunction on a two-dimensional manifold dictates some natural partitions of the manifold; the most apparent one being the well studied nodal domain partition. An alternative partition is revealed by considering a set of…

We consider the lower bound of nodal sets of Steklov eigenfunctions on smooth Riemannian manifolds with boundary--the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Let $N_\lambda$ be its nodal set. Assume that zero is a regular value of…

We investigate the measure of nodal sets for Robin and Neumann eigenfunctions in the domain and on the boundary of the domain. A polynomial upper bound for the interior nodal sets is obtained for Robin eigenfunctions in the smooth domain.…

The problem of obtaining the lower bounds on the restriction of Laplacian eigenfunctions to hypersurfaces inside a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is challenging and has been attempted by many authors \cite{BR, GRS, Jun, ET}. This paper…
