Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a bounded domain of class $C^{2+\alpha}$, $0<\alpha<1$. We show that if $n\geq 3$ and $u_\Omega$ is the maximal solution of equation $\Delta u = n(n-2)u^{(n+2)/(n-2)}$ in $\Omega$, then the hyperbolic…
We prove that the defocusing quintic wave equation, with Neumann boundary conditions, is globally wellposed on $H^1_N(\Omega) \times L^2(\Omega)$ for any smooth (compact) domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$. The proof relies on one hand on…
We study the stiff spectral Neumann problem for the Laplace operator in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ which is divided into two subdomains: an annulus $\Omega_1$ and a core $\Omega_0$. The density and the stiffness…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbf R^2$ and $\lambda^{\mathsf N} (\Omega)$ the first non-zero Neumann eigenvalue of the operator $-\Delta$ on $\Omega$. In this paper, for any $\gamma \in [0, \lambda^{\mathsf N} (\Omega) )$,…
A flag domain in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ of the form $\{(x,y,t) : y < A(x)\}$, where $A \colon \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a Lipschitz function. We solve the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the sub-elliptic…
We discuss the inverse problem of determining the, possibly anisotropic, conductivity of a body $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}$ when the so--called Dirichlet-to-Neumann map is locally given on a non empty portion $\Gamma$ of the boundary…
We consider the Laplacian on a class of smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{\nu}$, $\nu\ge 2$, with attractive Robin boundary conditions: \[ Q^\Omega_\alpha u=-\Delta u, \quad \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\alpha u \text{ on }…
We prove the existence of an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{S}^2$ for which the first positive eigenvalue of the Laplacian with Neumann boundary condition exceeds that of the geodesic disk having the same area. This example holds for large…
We study the nodal sets of non-degenerate eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on fibre bundles $\pi{:}\, M\to B$ in the adiabatic limit. This limit consists in considering a family $G_\varepsilon$ of Riemannian metrics, that are close to…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, smooth domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N},$ $N\geq2.$ For $p>N$ and $1\leq q(p)<\infty$ set \[ \lambda_{p,q(p)}:=\inf\left\{ \int_{\Omega}\left\vert \nabla u\right\vert ^{p}\mathrm{d}x:u\in W_{0}^{1,p}(\Omega)\text{ \ and…
We study the principal Dirichlet eigenfunction $\varphi_U$ when the domain $U$ is a perturbation of a bounded inner uniform domain in a strictly local regular Dirichlet space. We prove that if $U$ is suitably contained in between two inner…
We establish a mixed observability inequality for a class of degenerate hyperbolic equations on the cylindrical domain $\Omega = \mathbb{T} \times (0,1)$ with mixed Neumann Dirichlet boundary conditions. The degeneracy acts only in the…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded and smooth domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, $N\geq2$, and consider the eigenvalue problem: $-\Delta_{p}u=\lambda\left| u\right| _{L^{q}(\Omega)}^{p-q}\left| u\right| ^{q-2}u$ in $\Omega,$ $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega,$…
In this paper, we obtain optimal upper bounds for all the Neumann eigenvalues in two situations (that are closely related). First we consider a one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem where the density is a function $h(x)$ whose…
Quantum ergodic restriction (QER) is the problem of finding conditions on a hypersurface $H$ so that restrictions $\phi_j |_H$ to $H$ of $\Delta$-eigenfunctions of Riemannian manifolds $(M, g)$ with ergodic geodesic flow are quantum ergodic…
