\AA. Pleijel (1956) has proved that in the case of the Laplacian with Dirichlet condition, the equality in the Courant nodal theorem (Courant sharp situation) can only be true for a finite number of eigenvalues when the dimension is $\geq…

In this paper, we improve the sup-norm bound and the lower bound of the number of nodal domains for dihedral Maass forms, which are a distinguished sequence of Laplacian eigenfunctions on an arithmetic hyperbolic surface. More specifically,…

We provide quantitative improvements to the Berezin-Li-Yau inequality and the Kr\"oger inequality, in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$. The improvement on Kr\"oger's inequality resolves an open question raised by Weidl from 2006. The improvements…

This paper is devoted to the study of fractional (q,p)-Sobolev-Poincare inequalities in irregular domains. In particular, we establish (essentially) sharp fractional (q,p)-Sobolev-Poincare inequality in s-John domains and in domains…

We present an announcement of some recent results concerning well-posedness of the Poisson-Dirichlet problem with boundary data in Besov spaces with fractional smoothness. This is a far-reaching generalization as previously known theorems…

We give sufficient conditions on planar domains for polynomials to be dense in the algebras A and A-infinity of the product of these domains, endowed with their natural topologies. We also characterize the uniform limits, with respect to…

We obtain improved fractional Poincar\'e inequalities in John domains of a metric space $(X, d)$ endowed with a doubling measure $\mu$ under some mild regularity conditions on the measure $\mu$. We also give sufficient conditions on a…

We provide improved error bounds for kernel-based numerical differentiation in terms of growth functions when kernels are of a finite smoothness, such as polyharmonic splines, thin plate splines or Wendland kernels. In contrast to existing…

We consider the Courant-sharp eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian for bounded, connected, open sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 2$, with Lipschitz boundary. We prove Pleijel's theorem which implies that there are only finitely many…

We give an elementary proof of an analogue of Fej\'er's theorem in weighted Dirichlet spaces with superharmonic weights. This provides a simple way of seeing that polynomials are dense in such spaces.

We obtain improved fractional Poincar\'e and Sobolev Poincar\'e inequalities including powers of the distance to the boundary in John, $s$-John domains and H\"older-$\alpha$ domains, and discuss their optimality.

When revisiting the Faber-Krahn inequality for the principal $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue of a bounded open set in $\mathbb R^n$ with smooth boundary, we simply rename it as the $p$-Faber-Krahn inequality and interestingly find that this…

We prove a certain improved fractional Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequality on John domains; the proof is based on the equivalence of the corresponding weak and strong type inequalities. We also give necessary conditions for the validity of an…

Let $p(z)=a_0+a_1z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots+a_nz^n$ be a polynomial of degree $n,$ where the coefficients $a_j,$ $j \in \{0,1,2,\cdots n\},$ may be complex. We impose some restriction on the coefficients of the real part of the given polynomial…

We show the existence of planar domains with one hole for which the first non-trivial Neumann eigenfunction has a closed nodal line fully contained inside the domain. This is optimal, as it is known since Pleijel's 1956 result that the…

Let $l$ be a finite field of cardinality $q$ and let $n$ be in $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$. Let $f_1,\ldots,f_n \in l[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ not all constant and consider the evaluation map $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) \colon l^n \to l^n$. Set…

In this paper, we define a new capacity which allows us to control the behaviour of the Dirichlet spectrum of a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, with "small" subsets (which may intersect the boundary) removed. This result…

We give new upper bounds for the number of nonconstant holomorphic maps depending only on the genus. Our estimates improve previously known bounds. The proof is based on the study of pullbacks of holomorphic differentials, together with…

We extend the polydisk theorem of [21], originally established for classical Cartan-Hartogs domains, to Hartogs domains over arbitrary (possibly reducible and exceptional) bounded symmetric domains. We further establish a dual counterpart…

P. Berard and D. Meyer proved a Faber-Krahn inequality for domains in compact manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. We prove stability results for this inequality.
