We present a unified description of extremal metrics for the Laplace and Steklov eigenvalues on manifolds of arbitrary dimension using the notion of $n$-harmonic maps. Our approach extends the well-known results linking extremal metrics for…

We prove Li-Yau-Kr\"oger type bounds for Neumann-type eigenvalues of the poly-harmonic operator and of the biharmonic operator on bounded domains in a Euclidean space. We also prove sharp estimates for lower order eigenvalues of a…
We investigate integral-geometric quantities arising from harmonic analysis which measure visibility and transversality. Motivated by their applications in multilinear Kakeya problems and affine-invariant measures on surfaces, we derive…

This paper studies the growth of local extrema of Laplacian eigenfunctions on post-critically finite (p.c.f.) fractals. We establish the sharp two-sided estimate $\#\mathrm{Extr}(u_\lambda)\asymp\lambda^{d_S/2}$ for the Sierpinski gasket,…
It has been proposed recently that topological A-model string amplitudes for toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds in non self-dual graviphoton background can be caluculated by a diagrammatic method that is called the ``refined topological vertex''. We…
The spectral problem for an infinite periodic medium perturbed by a compact defect is considered. For a high contrast small $\ve$-size periodicity and a finite size defect we consider the critical $\ve^2$-scaling for the contrast. We employ…
We give improved lower bounds on the size of Kakeya and Nikodym sets over $\mathbb{F}_q^3$. We also propose a natural conjecture on the minimum number of points in the union of a not-too-flat set of lines in $\mathbb{F}_q^3$, and show that…
We analyse second order (in Riemann curvature) geometric flows (un-normalised) on locally homogeneous three manifolds and look for specific features through the solutions (analytic whereever possible, otherwise numerical) of the evolution…
We present local estimates for solutions to the Ricci flow, without the assumption that the solution has bounded curvature. These estimates lead to a generalisation of one of the pseudolocality results of G.Perelman in dimension two.
Aim of this paper is to prove the second order differentiation formula along geodesics in compact $RCD^*(K,N)$ spaces with $N<\infty$. This formula is new even in the context of Alexandrov spaces. We establish this result by showing that…
We develop a harmonic analysis on objects of some category $C_2$ of infinite-dimensional filtered vector spaces over a finite field. It includes two-dimensional local fields and adelic spaces of algebraic surfaces defined over a finite…
Maps between Riemannian manifolds which are submersions on a dense subset, are studied by means of the eigenvalues of the pull-back of the target metrics, the first fundamental form. Expressions for the derivatives of these eigenvalues…

We gain tight rigorous bounds on the renormalisation fixed point function for period doubling in families of unimodal maps with degree 2 critical point. By writing the relevant eigenproblems in a modified nonlinear form, we use these…
We obtain estimates for maximal functions that arise when one studies Nikodym-type sets. We also formulate a curvature condition that allows favorable estimates for these maximal functions.
