We investigate the relationship between the Neumann and Steklov principal eigenvalues emerging from the study of collapsing convex domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Such a relationship allows us to give a partial proof of a conjecture concerning…

In this work, optimal rigidity results for eigenvalues on K\"ahler manifolds with positive Ricci lower bound are established. More precisely, for those K\"ahler manifolds whose first eigenvalue agrees with the Ricci lower bound, we show…

We associate a sequence of variational eigenvalues to any Radon measure on a compact Riemannian manifold. For particular choices of measures, we recover the Laplace, Steklov and other classical eigenvalue problems. In the first part of the…

We prove the existence of optimal metrics for a wide class of combinations of Laplace eigenvalues on closed orientable surfaces of any genus. The optimal metrics are explicitely related to Laplace minimal eigenmaps, defined as branched…

For $U\in O(N)$ we have $||U||_1\leq N\sqrt{N}$, with equality if and only if $U=H/\sqrt{N}$, with $H$ Hadamard matrix. Motivated by this remark, we discuss in this paper the algebraic and analytic aspects of the computation of the maximum…

We prove that in dimension $n \geq 2$, within the collection of unit measure cuboids in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (i.e. domains of the form $\prod_{i=1}^{n}(0, a_n)$), any sequence of minimising domains $R_k^\mathcal{D}$ for the Dirichlet eigenvalues…

Eigenmaps are important in analysis, geometry, and machine learning, especially in nonlinear dimension reduction. Approximation of the eigenmaps of a Laplace operator depends crucially on the scaling parameter $\epsilon$. If $\epsilon$ is…

We investigate the Robin eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian with negative boundary parameter on quadrilateral domains of fixed area. In this paper, we prove that the square is a local maximiser of the first eigenvalue with respect to the…

Given a square complex matrix $A$, we tackle the problem of finding the nearest matrix with multiple eigenvalues or, equivalently when $A$ had distinct eigenvalues, the nearest defective matrix. To this goal, we extend the general framework…

We are concerned with the dependence of the lowest positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on the geometry of rectangles, subject to infinite-mass boundary conditions. We conjecture that the square is a global minimiser both under the…

Let $\mathbb{M}$ denote a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature $K_{\mathbb{M}} \leq k$ and Ricci curvature $\text{Ric}_{\mathbb{M}} \geq (n-1)K$, where $k,K \in \mathbb{R}$. Then for a bounded domain…
