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…

We revisit the $k$-Hessian eigenvalue problem on a smooth, bounded, $(k-1)$-convex domain in $\mathbb R^n$. First, we obtain a spectral characterization of the $k$-Hessian eigenvalue as the infimum of the first eigenvalues of linear…

Eigenvalue estimates that are optimal in some sense have self-evident appeal and leave estimators with a sense of virtue and economy. So, it is natural that ongoing searches for effective strategies for difficult tasks such as estimating…
