We present an account of different problems that arise in relation with cyclicity problems in Dirichlet-type spaces, in particular with polynomials $p$ that minimize the norm $\|pf-1\|$.

The inverse spectral theory for a self-adjoint one-dimensional Dirac operator associated periodic potentials is formulated via a Riemann-Hilbert problem approach. The resulting formalism is also used to solve the initial value problem for…

We develop a method for optimization in shape spaces, i.e., sets of surfaces modulo re-parametrization. Unlike previously proposed gradient flows, we achieve superlinear convergence rates through a subtle approximation of the shape Hessian,…

In this paper we analyze an eigenvalue problem related to the nonlocal $p-$laplace operator plus a potential. After reviewing some elementary properties of the first eigenvalue of these operators (existence, positivity of associated…

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be an open bounded domain and $m\in \mathbb{N}$. Given $k_1,\ldots,k_m\in \mathbb{N}$, we consider a wide class of optimal partition problems involving Dirichlet eigenvalues of elliptic operators, of the…

In this article we establish optimal estimates for the first eigenvalue of Schr\"odinger operators on the d-dimensional unit sphere. These estimates depend on Lebsgue's norms of the potential, or of its inverse, and are equivalent to…

We get optimal lower bounds for the eigenvalues of the submanifold Dirac operator on locally reducible Riemannian manifolds in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic expressions. The limiting-cases are also studied. As a corollary, one gets…

We study the problem of minimizing the second Dirichlet eigenvalue for the Laplacian operator among sets of given perimeter. In two dimensions, we prove that the optimum exists, is convex, regular, and its boundary contains exactly two…
