Let $(\Sigma, g)$ be a closed Riemann surface, and let $u$ be a weak solution to equation \[ - \Delta_g u = \mu, \] where $\mu$ is a signed Radon measure. We aim to establish $L^p$ estimates for the gradient of $u$ that are independent of…

In this article we develop new techniques for studying concentration of Laplace eigenfunctions $\phi_\lambda$ as their frequency, $\lambda$, grows. The method consists of controlling $\phi_\lambda(x)$ by decomposing $\phi_\lambda$ into a…

We discuss problems that relate curvature and concentration properties of eigenfunctions and quasimodes on compact boundaryless Riemannian manifolds. These include new sharp $L^q$-estimates, $q\in (2,q_c]$, $q_c=2(n+1)/(n-1)$, of…
