In this paper we obtain several results concerning the optimization of higher Steklov eigenvalues both in two and higher dimensional cases. We first show that the normalized (by boundary length) $k$-th Steklov eigenvalue on the disk is not…
We show that eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian with a positive boundary parameter $\alpha$ on rectangles and unions of rectangtes satisfy P\'{o}lya-type inequalities, albeit with an exponent smaller than that of the corresponding Weyl…

We prove the existence of an open set minimizing the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of an elliptic operator with bounded, measurable coefficients, over all open sets of a given measure. Our proof is based on a free boundary approach: we…

The eigenvalue problem for the p-Laplace operator with Robin boundary condition is considered in this paper. A Faber-Krahn type inequality is proved. More precisely, it is shown that amongst all the domains of fixed volume, the ball has the…

New isoperimetric inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of the Laplacian on closed hypersurfaces, of the biharmonic Steklov problems and of the Wentzell-Laplace on bounded domains in a Euclidean space are proven. Some open questions for…
We study the magnetic Laplacian in a two-dimensional exterior domain with Neumann boundary condition and uniform magnetic field. For the exterior of the disk we establish accurate asymptotics of the low-lying eigenvalues in the weak…
We study three types of fourth-order Steklov eigenvalue problems. For the first two of them, we derive the asymptotic expansion of their spectra on Euclidean annular domains $\mathbb{B}^n_1\setminus \overline{\mathbb{B}^n_\epsilon}$ as…
We study the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, with $n\geq 2$. In particular, we generalize and improve upper bounds for the Riesz means of order $\sigma\geq 3/2$ established in an article by…
We study an {\it indefinite weighted eigenvalue problem} for an operator of {\it mixed-type} (that includes both the classical {\it $p$-Laplacian} and the {\it fractional $p$-Laplacian}) in a bounded open subset $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N…
The second eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian is shown to be maximal for the disk among simply-connected planar domains of fixed area when the Robin parameter is scaled by perimeter in the form $\alpha/L(\Omega)$, and $\alpha$ lies between…
