On a complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, we consider $L^{p}_{loc}$ distributional solutions of the the differential inequality $-\Delta u + \lambda u \geq 0$ with $\lambda >0$ a locally bounded function that may decay to $0$ at infinity.…

Let $\{u_\lambda\}$ be a sequence of $L^2$-normalized Laplacian eigenfunctions on a compact two-dimensional smooth Riemanniann manifold $(M,g)$. We seek to get an $L^p$ restriction bounds of the Neumann data $ \lambda^{-1} \partial_\nu…

We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…

We prove $L^p$-mass concentration properties of Laplace eigenfunctions away from their nodal sets, extending a recent result in \cite{GM3} to all dimensions, and giving a slight refinement of a result in \cite{JN}. As a consequence, we are…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ be any open set. We consider solutions of $H\psi_\lambda=\lambda \psi_\lambda$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$, where $H$ is an $m$th order complex constant-coefficient elliptic partial differential operator. We…

We give uniform upper and lower bounds for the L^2 norm of the restriction of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the three-dimensional standard flat torus to surfaces with non-vanishing curvature. We also present several related results…

We begin with the observation, based on previous results, that dimension-free lower bounds on the variance of a polynomial under a log-concave measure yield dimension-free small-ball and Fourier decay estimates. Motivated by this, we…

We prove tight H\"olderian error bounds for all $p$-cones. Surprisingly, the exponents differ in several ways from those that have been previously conjectured; moreover, they illuminate $p$-cones as a curious example of a class of objects…

A discrete model of quantum ergodicity of linear maps generated by symplectic matrices $A \in \mathrm{Sp}(2d,\mathbb{Z})$ modulo an integer $N\ge 1$, has been studied for $d=1$ and almost all $N$ by P. Kurlberg and Z. Rudnick (2001). Their…

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…

For a smooth $k$-dimensional submanifold $\Sigma$ of a $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $M$, we extend the $L^p(\Sigma)$ restriction bounds of Burq-G\'erard-Tzvetkov -- originally proved for individual Laplace--Beltrami…

We establish local $(L^p,L^q)$ mapping properties for averages on curves. The exponents are sharp except for endpoints.

We answer a question of Jakobson and Nadirashvili on the asymptotic behavior of the $L^p$ norms of positive and negative parts of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. More precisely, we show that there exists a sequence of eigenfunctions…

This short note proves that a Laplacian cannot be quantum uniquely ergodic if it possesses a quasimode of order zero which (i) has a singular limit, and (ii) is a linear combination of a uniformly bounded number of eigenfunctions (modulo an…

We consider a general class of sharp $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$ involving distance from a surface of general codimension $1\leq k\leq N$. We show that we can succesively improve them by adding to the right hand side a lower order…

The eigenfunctions e^{i \lambda x} of the Laplacian on a flat torus have uniformly bounded L^p norms. In this article, we prove that for every other quantum integrable Laplacian, the L^p norms of the joint eigenfunctions must blow up at a…

In this series, we investigate quantum ergodicity at small scales for linear hyperbolic maps of the torus ("cat maps"). In Part I of the series, we prove quantum ergodicity at various scales. Let $N=1/h$, in which $h$ is the Planck…

We consider the corrector equation from the stochastic homogenization of uniformly elliptic finite-difference equations with random, possibly non-symmetric coefficients. Under the assumption that the coefficients are stationary and ergodic…

We study eigenfunction localization for higher dimensional cat maps, a popular model of quantum chaos. These maps are given by linear symplectic maps in ${\mathrm{Sp}}(2g,\mathbb Z)$, which we take to be ergodic. Under some natural…

This paper concerns the concentration of Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact two-dimensional Riemannian manifold with strictly geodesically concave boundary. We link three inequalities which bound the concentration in…
