An open problem that is widely regarded as one of the most important in quantum query complexity is to resolve the quantum query complexity of the k-distinctness function on inputs of size N. While the case of k=2 (also called Element…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded $C^{2}$ domain in $\R^n$, and let $\Omega^{\ast}$ be the Euclidean ball centered at 0 and having the same Lebesgue measure as $\Omega$. Consider the operator $L=-\div(A\nabla)+v\cdot \nabla +V$ on $\Omega$ with…

Non-reversible lifts reduce the relaxation time of reversible diffusions at most by a square root. For reversible diffusions on domains in Euclidean space, or, more generally, on a Riemannian manifold with boundary, non-reversible lifts are…

We introduce higher-order Poincar'e constants for compact weighted manifolds and estimate them from above in terms of subsets. These estimates imply upper bounds for eigenvalues of the weighted Laplacian and the first nontrivial eigenvalue…

It is a well-known fact that in a Lipschitz domain \Omega\subset R^n a p-Hardy inequality, with weight d(x,\partial\Omega)^\beta, holds for all u\in C_0^\infty(\Omega) whenever \beta<p-1. We show that actually the same is true under the…

This paper is motivated by the maximization of the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Laplace operator with Neumann boundary conditions among domains of ${\mathbb R}^N$ with prescribed measure. We relax the problem to the class of (possibly…

In this paper, we considered the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta_\epsilon$ on $\Omega_\epsilon=\{(x,y): -l_1<x<l_2, 0<y<\epsilon h(x)]\}$ where $ l_1,l_2>0$ and $h(x)$ is a positive analytic function having $0$ the only point…

We consider the "Method of particular solutions" for numerically computing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian $\Delta$ on a smooth, bounded domain Omega in RR^n with either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. This method…

We consider a Laplace eigenfunction $\varphi_\lambda$ on a smooth closed Riemannian manifold, that is, satisfying $-\Delta \varphi_\lambda = \lambda \varphi_\lambda$. We introduce several observations about the geometry of its vanishing…

The celebrated conjecture by Payne, P\'{o}lya and Weinberger (1956) states that for the fixed membrane problem, the ratio of the first two eigenvalues, $\lambda_2/\lambda_1$, is maximized by a disk. A more general dimensional version of…

In this paper we study the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem $$ -\Delta_p u-\Delta_{J,p}u =\lambda|u|^{p-2}u \quad \text{ in } \Omega,\quad u=0 \quad\text{ in } \Omega^c=\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\Omega. $$ Here $\Delta_p u$ is the standard local…

In this paper, we study the spectrum of the weighted Laplacian (also called Bakry-Emery or Witten Laplacian) $L_\sigma$ on a compact, connected, smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ endowed with a measure $\sigma dv_g$. First, we obtain upper…

We bound several quantities related to the packing density of the patterns 1(L+1)L...2. These bounds sharpen results of B\'ona, Sagan, and Vatter and give a new proof of the packing density of these patterns, originally computed by…

For $d\geq 2$ and $\frac{2d+2}{d+2} < p < \infty $, we prove a strict Faber-Krahn type inequality for the first eigenvalue $\lambda _1(\Omega )$ of the $p$-Laplace operator on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ (with…
