These are notes from the 2003 C.I.M.E. summer school "symplectic 4-manifolds and algebraic surfaces". They cover the same material as the author's (by now ancient) Ph.D. thesis.

This is a set of lecture notes for a course given at the 2005 Summer School in Poisson Geometry held at ICTP-Trieste.

We consider mass concentration properties of Laplace eigenfunctions $\varphi_\lambda$, that is, smooth functions satisfying the equation $-\Delta \varphi_\lambda = \lambda \varphi_\lambda$, on a smooth closed Riemannian manifold. Using a…

This is an expository article on properties of actions on Lie groups by subgroups of their automorphism groups. After recalling various results on the structure of the automorphism groups, we discuss actions with dense orbits, invariant and…

The purpose of this paper is to give a simple proof of sharp $L^\infty$ estimates for the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ of dimension $n\ge 2$ with boundary $\partial M$ and then to…

In these four lectures, aiming at senior undergraduate and junior graduate Physics and Mathematics students, basic elements of the theory of elliptic functions are presented. Simple applications in classical mechanics are discussed,…

This is a survey on the recent progress in several applications of isoparametric theory, including an affirmative answer to Yau's conjecture on the first eigenvalue of Laplacian in the isoparametric case, a negative answer to Yau's 76th…

These lectures introduce the basic ideas and practices of statistical analysis for particle physicists, using a real-world example to illustrate how the abstractions on which statistics is based are translated into practical application.

Several sets of quaternionic functions are described and studied with respect to hyperholomorphy, addition and (non commutative) multiplication, on open sets of $\mathbb H$. The aim is to get a local function theory.

The paper contains a geometrization of the autonomous multi-time Lagrangian function of electrodynamics. We point out that this multi-time Lagrangian function comes from electrodynamics and the theory of bosonic strings.

This paper is devoted to a dispersion analysis of a class of perturbed p-Laplacians. Besides the p-Laplacian-like eigenvalue problems we also deal with new and non-standard eigenvalue problems, which can not be solved by the methods used in…

We prove estimates for eigenfunctions on a manifold equipped with a smooth metric. We use these estimates in order estimate the size of their nodal sets.
