In this paper, we determine, in the case of the Laplacian on the flat three-dimensional torus $(\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})^3$, all the eigenvalues having an eigenfunction which satisfies the Courant nodal domains theorem with equality…

We address the question of determining the eigenvalues $\lambda\_n$ (listed in nondecreasing order, with multiplicities) for which Courant's nodal domain theorem is sharp i.e., for which there exists an associated eigenfunction with $n$…

We find the Courant-sharp Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on some 2-rep-tile domains. In $\R^{2}$ the domains we consider are the isosceles right triangle and the rectangle with edge ratio $\sqrt{2}$ (also known as the A4 paper). In…

This paper is devoted to the refine analysis of Courant's theorem for the Dirichlet Laplacian. Many papers (and some of them quite recent) have investigated in which cases this inequality in Courant's theorem is an equality: Pleijel,…

We consider the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on an open, bounded, connected set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^2$ boundary, with a Neumann boundary condition or a Robin boundary condition. We obtain upper bounds for those eigenvalues that have a…

\AA. Pleijel (1956) has proved that in the case of the Laplacian with Dirichlet condition, the equality in the Courant nodal theorem (Courant sharp situation) can only be true for a finite number of eigenvalues when the dimension is $\geq…

{\AA} Pleijel has proved that in the case of the Laplacian on the square with Neumann condition, the equality in the Courant nodal theorem (Courant sharp situation) can only be true for a finite number of eigenvalues. We identify five…

This paper is devoted to the determination of the cases where there is equality in Courant's nodal domain theorem in the case of a Robin boundary condition. For the square, we partially extend the results that were obtained by Pleijel,…

We consider the Courant-sharp eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian for bounded, connected, open sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 2$, with Lipschitz boundary. We prove Pleijel's theorem which implies that there are only finitely many…

We establish uniform upper and lower bounds on the restrictions of the eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the 2- and 3-dimensional standard flat torus to smooth hyper-surfaces with non-vanishing curvature.

We prove the discrete restriction conjecture holds with no loss when $p>\frac{2d}{d-4}$ and $d\geq 5$. That is, we show optimal $L^p$ bounds for eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the square torus for large values of $p$. This improves the…

In this paper, we successfully establish a Courant-type nodal domain theorem for both the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem and the closed eigenvalue problem of the Witten-Laplacian. Moreover, we also characterize the properties of the nodal…

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^d\,, d\geq 2$, be a bounded open set, and denote by $\lambda\_j(\Omega), j\geq 1$, the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian arranged in nondecreasing order, with multiplicities. The weak form of Pleijel's…

We study the structure of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on quantum graphs, with a particular focus on Morse eigenfunctions via nodal and Neumann domains. Building on Courant-type arguments, we establish upper bounds for the number of…

For p=2 and tame level N=1 we prove that the map from the (Coleman-Mazur) Eigencurve to weight space satisfies the valuative criterion of properness. More informally, we show that the Eigencurve has no "holes"; given a punctured disc of…

According to Courant's theorem, an eigenfunction as\-sociated with the $n$-th eigenvalue $\lambda\_n$ has at most $n$ nodal domains. A footnote in the book of Courant and Hilbert, states that the same assertion is true for any linear…

In this paper, we show that equality in Courant's nodal domain theorem can only be reached for a finite number of eigenvalues of the Neumann Laplacian, in the case of an open, bounded and connected set in R n with a C 1,1 boundary. This…

Courant's theorem implies that the number of nodal domains of a Laplace eigenfunction is controlled by the corresponding eigenvalue. Over the years, there have been various attempts to find an appropriate generalization of this statement in…
