We study the spectrum of the Laplacian on the hemisphere with Robin boundary conditions. It is found that the eigenvalues fall into small clusters around the Neumann spectrum, and satisfy a Szeg\H{o} type limit theorem. Sharp upper and…

We introduce the \Gamma-extension of the spectrum of the Laplacian of a Riemannian orbifold, where \Gamma is a finitely generated discrete group. This extension, called the \Gamma-spectrum, is the union of the Laplace spectra of the…

A Laplacian eigenfunction on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold provides a natural partition into Neumann domains (a.k.a. a Morse--Smale complex). This partition is generated by gradient flow lines of the eigenfunction, which bound the…

We consider a family of compact manifolds which shrinks with respect to an appropriate parameter to a graph. The main result is that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator converges to the spectrum of the (differential) Laplacian on…

In this paper, we give a spectral approximation result for the Laplacian on submanifolds of Euclidean spaces with singularities by the $\epsilon$-neighborhood graph constructed from random points on the submanifold. Our convergence rate for…

For a Riemannian closed spin manifold and under some topological assumption (non-zero $\hat{A}$-genus or enlargeability in the sense of Gromov-Lawson), we give an optimal upper bound for the infimum of the scalar curvature in terms of the…

We investigate the spectra of a family of pairs (M_i,A_i) consisting of a complete Riemannian manifold M_i and a closed subset A_i and which converge in the Lipschitz topology to a pair (M,A). This is used to construct manifolds of bounded…

We constrain the low-energy spectra of Laplace operators on closed hyperbolic manifolds and orbifolds in three dimensions, including the standard Laplace-Beltrami operator on functions and the Laplacian on powers of the cotangent bundle.…

We present a method for proving upper bounds on the eigenvalues of the graph Laplacian. A main step involves choosing an appropriate "Riemannian" metric to uniformize the geometry of the graph. In many interesting cases, the existence of…

We consider the class of closed Riemannian $n$-manifolds with Ricci curvature and injectivity radius bounded below by uniform constants, and an upper bound on the diameter. We establish a uniform upper bound for the eigenvalues of the Hodge…

We describe a method for constraining Laplacian and Dirac spectra of two dimensional compact orientable hyperbolic spin manifolds and orbifolds. The key ingredient is an infinite family of identities satisfied by the spectra. These spectral…

We consider the Laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the hypersurfaces and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We…

We study the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on ellipsoids. For ellipsoids that are close to the sphere, we use analytic perturbation theory to estimate the eigenvalues up to two orders. We show that for biaxial ellipsoids…

Let $M$ be a $2m$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We show that the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian acting on $m$-forms does not determine whether the manifold has boundary, nor does it determine the lengths of the closed geodesics.…

We study the property of spectral-tightness of Riemannian manifolds, which means that the bottom of the spectrum of the Laplacian separates the universal covering space from any other normal covering space of a Riemannian manifold. We prove…
