We study Lord Rayleigh's problem for clamped plates on an arbitrary $n$-dimensional $(n\geq 2)$ Cartan-Hadamard manifold $(M,g)$ with sectional curvature $\textbf{K}\leq -\kappa^2$ for some $\kappa\geq 0.$ We first prove a McKean-type…

Let $(M^{n}, g)$ be a closed connected Einstein space, $n=dim M ,$ and $\kappa_{0} $ be the lower bound of the sectional curvature. In this paper, we prove Udo Simon's conjecture: on closed Einstein spaces, $n\geq 3,$ there is no eigenvalue…

Given an unbounded domain $\Omega$ of a Hadamard manifold $M$, it makes sense to consider the problem of finding minimal graphs with prescribed continuous data on its cone-topology-boundary, i.e., on its ordinary boundary together with its…

We provide an isoperimetric comparison theorem for small volumes in an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ with strong bounded geometry, as in Definition $2.3$, involving the scalar curvature function. Namely in strong bounded…

This paper treats a holomorphic self-mapping f: Omega --> Omega of a bounded domain Omega in a separable Hilbert space H with a fixed point p. In case the domain is convex, we prove an infinite-dimensional version of the…

In this paper we prove weak L^{1,p} (and thus C^{\alpha}) compactness for the class of uniformly mean-convex Riemannian n-manifolds with boundary satisfying bounds on curvature quantities, diameter, and (n-1)-volume of the boundary. We…

We obtain in this paper bounds for the capacity of a compact set $K$. If $K$ is contained in an $(n+1)$-dimensional Cartan-Hadamard manifold, has smooth boundary, and the principal curvatures of $\partial K$ are larger than or equal to…

We prove the macroscopic cousins of three conjectures: 1) a conjectural bound of the simplicial volume of a Riemannian manifold in the presence of a lower scalar curvature bound, 2) the conjecture that rationally essential manifolds do not…

This is the second paper of two in a series under the same title ([CRX]); both study the quantitative volume space form rigidity conjecture: a closed $n$-manifold of Ricci curvature at least $(n-1)H$, $H=\pm 1$ or $0$ is diffeomorphic to a…

Let $(M^n,g)$ be a complete simply connected $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with curvature bounds $\operatorname{Sect}_g\leq \kappa$ for $\kappa\leq 0$ and $\operatorname{Ric}_g\geq(n-1)Kg$ for $K\leq 0$. We prove that for any bounded…

A conjecture of Pasteczka, generalizing the classical Hermite--Hadamard Inequality, states that if $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ is a compact convex domain such that $\Omega$ and $\partial \Omega$ have the same center of mass, then for…

The Rayleigh Conjecture for the bilaplacian consists in showing that the clamped plate with least principal eigenvalue is the ball. The conjecture has been shown to hold in 1995 by Nadirashvili in dimension $2$ and by Ashbaugh and Benguria…

Let $A$ be the adjacency matrix of a uniformly random $d$-regular digraph on $n$ vertices, and suppose that $\min(d,n-d)\geq\lambda n$. We show that for any $\kappa \geq 0$, \[\mathbb{P}[s_n(A)\leq\kappa]\leq…

Theorem A. Let $M^n$ denote a closed Riemannian manifold with nonpositive sectional curvature and let $\tilde M^n$ be the universal cover of $M^n$ with the lifted metric. Suppose that the universal cover $\tilde M^n$ contains no totally…

We shall prove that under some volume growth condition, the essential spectrum of the Laplacian contains the interval $[(n-1)^2K/4, \infty)$ if an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold has an end and the average of the part of the Ricci…

We consider a quantity $\kappa(\Omega)$ -- the distance to the origin from the null variety of the Fourier transform of the characteristic function of $\Omega$. We conjecture, firstly, that $\kappa(\Omega)$ is maximized, among all convex…

In this paper, we investigate complete Riemannian manifolds satisfying the lower weighted Ricci curvature bound $\mathrm{Ric}_{N} \geq K$ with $K>0$ for the negative effective dimension $N<0$. We analyze two $1$-dimensional examples of…

For a non-empty compact set $E$ in a proper subdomain $\Omega$ of the complex plane, we denote the diameter of $E$ and the distance from $E$ to the boundary of $\Omega$ by $d(E)$ and $d(E,\partial\Omega),$ respectively. The quantity…

The Han-Li conjecture states that: Let $(M,g_0)$ be an $n$-dimensional $(n\geq 3)$ smooth compact Riemannian manifold with boundary having positive (generalized) Yamabe constant and $c$ be any real number, then there exists a conformal…

We establish a lower bound for the principal $p-$frequency $\lambda_{1,p}(\Omega)$ on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in a non-compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n.$ Under the assumption that the Ricci curvature satisfies…
