We prove that the Riemannian metric on a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with smooth boundary can be uniquely determined, up to an isometry fixing the boundary, by the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to the Laplace-Beltrami…

For smooth bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}$, we prove upper and lower $L^2$ bounds on the boundary data of Neumann eigenfunctions, and prove quasi-orthogonality of this boundary data in a spectral window. The bounds are tight in the sense…

We consider Laplacian eigenfunctions on a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. Under Neumann boundary conditions, the first eigenfunction is constant and the others have mean value 0. The situation is different for Dirichlet boundary…

We show that for compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least $3$ with nonempty boundary, we can modify the manifold by performing surgeries of codimension $2$ or higher, while keeping the Steklov spectrum nearly unchanged. This shows…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain with $C^\infty$ boundary in an $n$-dimensional $C^\infty$ Riemannian manifold, and let $\varrho$ be a non-negative bounded function defined on $\partial \Omega$. It is well-known that for the biharmonic…
