The Dirichlet Laplacian in a curved three-dimensional tube built along a spatial (bounded or unbounded) curve is investigated in the limit when the uniform cross-section of the tube diminishes. Both deformations due to bending and twisting…

In this paper we study the smallest non-zero eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the Laplacian on toric K\"ahler manifolds. We find an explicit upper bound for $\lambda_1$ in terms of moment polytope data. We show that this bound can only be attained…

On a complete noncompact K\"{a}hler manifold we prove that the bottom of the spectrum for the Laplacian is bounded from above by $m^2$ if the Ricci curvature is bounded from below by $-2(m+1)$. Then we show that if this upper bound is…

We consider upper bounds on the growth of $L^p$ norms of restrictions of eigenfunctions and quasimodes to geodesic segments in a nonpositively curved manifold in the high frequency limit. This sharpens results of Chen and Sogge as well as…

We obtain a sharp bound on the number of self-intersections of a closed planar curve with trigonometric parameterization. Moreover, we show that a generic curve of this form is normal in the sense of Whitney.

We construct cobordisms of small genus between torus knots and use them to determine the cobordism distance between torus knots of small braid index. In fact, the cobordisms we construct arise as the intersection of a smooth algebraic curve…

We extend a result of the second author \cite[Theorem 1.1]{soggekaknik} to dimensions $d \geq 3$ which relates the size of $L^p$-norms of eigenfunctions for $2<p<\frac{2(d+1)}{d-1}$ to the amount of $L^2$-mass in shrinking tubes about…

This paper is concerned with the location of nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin tubular neighbourhoods of hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. In the limit when the radius of the…

We consider eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on special surfaces of revolution. For this separable system, the nodal domains of the (real) eigenfunctions form a checker-board pattern, and their number $\nu_n$ is proportional…

Oriented loops on an orientable surface are, up to equivalence by free homotopy, in one-to-one correspondence with the conjugacy classes of the surface's fundamental group. These conjugacy classes can be expressed (not uniquely in the case…

Let us fix two different radial eigenfunctions of a hyperbolic Laplacian and assume that both of them have the same value at the origin. Both eigenvalues can be complex numbers. The main goal of this paper is to estimate the lower bound for…

Let $\Upsilon $ be a compact, negatively curved surface. From the (finite) set of all closed geodesics on $\Upsilon$ of length $\leq L$, choose one, say $\gamma_{L}$, at random and let $N (\gamma_{L})$ be the number of its…

Bounds are obtained for the $L^p$ norm of the torsion function $v_{\Omega}$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1,\, v\in H_0^1(\Omega),$ in terms of the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega$ and the principal eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the…

We consider the zeros on the boundary $\partial \Omega$ of a Neumann eigenfunction $\phi_{\lambda}$ of a real analytic plane domain $\Omega$. We prove that the number of its boundary zeros is $O (\lambda)$ where $-\Delta \phi_{\lambda} =…

We consider the Laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the hypersurfaces and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We…

We study the structure of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on quantum graphs, with a particular focus on Morse eigenfunctions via nodal and Neumann domains. Building on Courant-type arguments, we establish upper bounds for the number of…

Let $\rho_C$ be the regularity of the Hilbert function of a projective curve $C$ in $\mathbb P^n_K$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ and $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_{n-1}$ be minimal degrees for which there exists a complete intersection of…

The n-th hull of a union of curves in R^3 is the set of points with the property: Any plane passing through the point intersects the curves at least 2n times. The hull number u(L) of a link L is defined as the minimum number of non-empty…

We consider Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the two-dimensional flat torus (arithmetic random waves), and provide explicit Berry-Esseen bounds in the 1-Wasserstein distance for the normal and non-normal high-energy approximation of the…

In this paper, we study the restrictions of both the harmonic functions and the eigenfunctions of the symmetric Laplacian to edges of pre-gaskets contained in the Sierpinski gasket. For a harmonic function, its restriction to any edge is…
