We consider Bergman spaces and variations of them in one or several complex variables. For some domains we show that in these spaces the generic function is totally unbounded and hence non - extendable. We also show that the generic…

In 1956 $\AA$. Pleijel gave his celebrated theorem showing that the inequality in Courant's theorem on the number of nodal domains is strict for large eigenvalues of the Laplacian. This was a consequence of a stronger result giving an…

We construct a bounded $C^{1}$ domain $\Omega$ in $R^{n}$ for which the $H^{3/2}$ regularity for the Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the Laplacian cannot be improved, that is, there exists $f$ in $C^{\infty}(\overline\Omega)$ such that…
