In this paper we study the behaviour of the continuous spectrum of the Laplacian on a complete Riemannian manifold of bounded curvature under perturbations of the metric. The perturbations that we consider are such that its covariant…

We consider several intriguingly connected topics in the theory of wave propagation: geometrical characterizations of radiationless sources, non-radiating incident waves, interior transmission eigenfunctions, and their applications to…
This paper presents a family of Fourier eigenfunctions indexed by the space dimension d. These eigenfunctions are radial and built upon some generalized exponential integral function. For d=1,2,3, they are integrable or square integrable…

In this note we show how to obtain regularity estimates for the fractional Laplacian on the multidimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ from the fractional Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Though at first glance this may seem quite natural, it must…

We study the value distribution and extreme values of eigenfunctions for the ``quantized cat map''. This is the quantization of a hyperbolic linear map of the torus. In a previous paper it was observed that there are quantum symmetries of…
We discuss new results on the geometry of eigenfunctions in disor- dered systems. More precisely, we study tori $R^d/LZ^d$, $d=2,3$, with uniformly distributed Dirac masses. Whereas at the bottom of the spectrum eigenfunctions are known to…
We study the one-dimensional Dirac equation with local PT-symmetric potentials whose discrete eigenfunctions and continuum asymptotic eigenfunctions are eigenfunctions of the PT operator, too: on these conditions the bound-state spectra are…
We investigate the number of nodal intersections of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the standard three-dimensional flat torus with a fixed smooth reference curve, which has nowhere vanishing curvature. The expected intersection…
We investigate the number of nodal intersections of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the standard two-dimensional flat torus ("arithmetic random waves") with a fixed real-analytic reference curve with nonvanishing curvature. The…
A nonrelativistic scalar particle that is constrained to move on an asymptotically flat curved surface undergoes a geometric scattering that is sensitive to the mean and Gaussian curvatures of the surface. A careful study of possible…
Under a perturbation by a decaying electric potential, the Landau Hamiltonian acquires some discrete eigenvalues between the Landau levels. We study the perturbation by an "expanding" electric potential $V(t^{-1}x)$, $t>0$, and derive a…
