The classical result of Patterson and Sullivan says that for a non-elementary convex cocompact subgroup $\Gamma<\text{SO}^\circ (n,1)$, $n\ge 2$, the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set of $\Gamma$ is equal to the critical exponent of…
An eigenvalue problem arising in optimal insulation related to the minimization of the heat decay rate of an insulated body is adapted to enforce a positive lower bound imposed on the distribution of insulating material. We prove the…
We consider the time-harmonic Maxwell equations at a nonzero wavenumber $k\in\mathbb{C}$ on a bounded and simply connected Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ with an analytic boundary $\Gamma$, on which we impose impedance boundary conditions. We…
A circle domain $\Omega$ in the Riemann sphere is conformally rigid if every conformal map from $\Omega$ onto another circle domain is the restriction of a M\"{o}bius transformation. We show that circle domains satisfying a certain…
We will provide bounds on both the Betti numbers and the torsion part of the homology of hyperbolic orbifolds. These bounds are linear in the volume and are a direct consequence of an efficient simplicial model of the thick part, which we…
In this paper, we prove the uniform estimates for the resolvent $(\Delta - \alpha)^{-1}$ as a map from $L^q$ to $L^{q'}$ on real hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$ where $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}\setminus [(n - 1)^2/4, \infty)$ and $2n/(n + 2)…

A graph is said to be diameter-$k$-critical if its diameter is $k$ and removal of any of its edges increases its diameter. A beautiful conjecture by Murty and Simon, says that every diameter-2-critical graph of order $n$ has at most…
It is known that for $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ an unbounded convex domain and $H>0$, there exists a graph $G\subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ of constant mean curvature $H$ over $\Omega $ with $\partial G=$ $\partial \Omega $ if and only if…
We consider heat operators on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, with a critically singular potential diverging as the inverse square of the distance to $\partial \Omega$. While null boundary controllability for such…
This work deals with theoretical and numerical aspects related to the behavior of the Steklov-Lam\'e eigenvalues on variable domains. After establishing the eigenstructure for the disk, we prove that for a certain class of Lam\'e…
We obtain an essential spectral gap for a convex co-compact hyperbolic surface $M=\Gamma\backslash\mathbb H^2$ which depends only on the dimension $\delta$ of the limit set. More precisely, we show that when $\delta>0$ there exists…
We show that every bordered Riemann surface, $M$, with smooth boundary $bM$ admits a proper holomorphic map $M\to \Omega$ into any bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb C^n$, $n>1$, extending to a smooth map $f:\overline…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$ be an open set. Given a boundary datum $g$ on $\partial\Omega$ and a function $K:\bar {\Omega} \to\mathcal{K}$, the family of all compact convex subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, we prove the existence of…
Let ${\mathfrak M}$ be a closed, orientable, hyperbolic 3-orbifold such that $\pi_1({\mathfrak M})$ contains no hyperbolic triangle group. We show that strict upper bounds of 0.07625, 0.1525 and 0.22875 for ${\rm vol}\ {\mathfrak M}$ imply…
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…

The notion of strictly outward minimising hull is investigated for open sets of finite perimeter sitting inside a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under natural geometric assumptions on the ambient manifold, the strictly outward…
