Building on seminal work of Nadirashvili and previous work of the authors, we prove the existence of metrics maximizing the area-normalized first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on every closed nonorientable surface, and give a simple new proof…

Let $(M^{n},g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with $Ric\geq-(n-1) $. It is well known that the bottom of spectrum $\lambda_{0}$ of its unverversal covering satisfies $\lambda_{0}\leq(n-1) ^{2}/4 $. We prove that equality holds iff $M$ is…

Consider a semigraph $G=(V,\,E)$; in this paper, we study the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of $G$. We show that the Laplacian of $G$ is positive semi-definite, and $G$ is connected if and only if $\lambda_2 >0.$ Along the similar…

We study Laplace eigenvalues $\lambda_k$ on K\"ahler manifolds as functionals on the space of K\"ahler metrics with cohomologous K\"ahler forms. We introduce a natural notion of a $\lambda_k$-extremal K\"ahler metric and obtain necessary…

Let $(M,g)$ be a non-compact riemannian $n$-manifold with bounded geometry at order $k\geq\frac{n}{2}$. We show that if the spectrum of the Laplacian starts with $q+1$ discrete eigenvalues isolated from the essential spectrum, and if the…

We address the problem of computing the graph $p$-Laplacian eigenpairs for $p\in (2,\infty)$. We propose a reformulation of the graph $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue problem in terms of a constrained weighted Laplacian eigenvalue problem and…

We investigate in this paper the existence of a metric which maximizes the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on Riemannian surfaces. We first prove that, in a given conformal class, there always exists such a maximizing metric which is…

We study products of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian $-\Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda \phi_{\lambda}$ on compact manifolds. If $\phi_{\mu}, \phi_{\lambda}$ are two eigenfunctions and $\mu \leq \lambda$, then one would perhaps expect their…

The eigenfunctions of the Laplacian are a central object from the realms of analytic number theory to geometric analysis. We prove that H\"ormander $L^2$-$L^{\infty}$ estimates are equivalent to restriction estimates to small geodesic…

Inspired by persistent homology in topological data analysis, we introduce the homological eigenvalues of the graph $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_p$, which allows us to analyse and classify non-variational eigenvalues. We show the stability of…

We consider the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian for a planar, simply connected domain. The eigenvalues admit a characterization in terms of a layer potential of the Helmholtz equation. Using the exterior conformal mapping…

By studying connectedness at infinity of systolic groups we distinguish them from some other classes of groups, in particular from the fundamental groups of manifolds covered by euclidean space of dimension at least three. We also study…

We describe the local structure of Riemannian manifolds with harmonic curvature which admit a maximum number, in a well-defined sense, of local warped-product decompositions, and at the same time their Ricci tensor has, at some point, only…

We prove a Liouville-type theorem for biharmonic maps from a complete Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n\) that has a lower bound on its Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius into a Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature…

On any compact Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ of dimension $n$, the $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions $\{\phi_{\lambda}\}$ satisfy $||\phi_{\lambda}||_{\infty} \leq C \lambda^{\frac{n-1}{2}}$ where $-\Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda^2…

We prove a sharp integral gradient estimate for harmonic functions on noncompact K\"ahler manifolds. As application, we obtain a sharp estimate for the bottom of spectrum of the p-Laplacian and prove a splitting theorem for manifolds…

We prove a general essential self-adjointness criterion for sub-Laplacians on complete sub-Riemannian manifolds, defined with respect to singular measures. As a consequence, we show that the intrinsic sub-Laplacian (i.e. defined w.r.t.…

We first consider a question raised by Alexander Eremenko and show that if $\Omega $ is an arbitrary connected open cone in ${\mathbb R}^d$, then any two positive harmonic functions in $\Omega $ that vanish on $\partial \Omega $ must be…

The purpose of this paper is to prove a uniform convergence rate of the solutions of the $p$-Laplace equation $\Delta_p u = 0$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions to the solution of the infinity-Laplace equation $\Delta_\infty u = 0$ as…

We prove almost sharp upper bounds for the $L^p$ norms of eigenfunctions of the full ring of invariant differential operators on a compact locally symmetric space, as well as their restrictions to maximal flat subspaces. Our proof combines…
