We analyze the resolvent and define the scattering matrix for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds with metrics which have a polyhomogeneous expansion near the boundary, and also prove that there is always an essential singularity of the…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and mean convex boundary $\partial M$. Assume that the mean curvature $H$ of the boundary $\partial M$ satisfies $H \geq (n-1) k >0$ for some positive…

Given a linear ordering of the vertices of a graph, the cutwidth of a vertex $v$ with respect to this ordering is the number of edges from any vertex before $v$ (including $v$) to any vertex after $v$ in this ordering. The cutwidth of an…

We introduce a method for proving lower bounds on the efficacy of semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations for combinatorial problems. In particular, we show that the cut, TSP, and stable set polytopes on $n$-vertex graphs are not the…

We employ separation of variables to prove weighted resolvent estimates for the semiclassical Schr\"odinger operator $-h^2 \Delta + V(|x|) - E$ in dimension $n \ge 2$, where $h, \, E > 0$, and $V: [0, \infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ is $L^\infty$…

We study a family of gradient obstacle problems on a compact Riemannian manifold. We prove that the solutions of these free boundary problems are uniformly semiconcave and, as a consequence, we obtain some fine convergence results for the…

For various compactly supported perturbations of the Laplacian in odd dimensions $n$, we prove a sharp upper bound of the resonance counting function $N(r)$ of the type $N(r) \le A_n r^n(1+o(1))$ with an explicit constant $A_n$. In a few…

It is shown that an elliptic scattering operator $A$ on a compact manifold with boundary with coefficients in the bounded operators of a bundle of Banach spaces of class (HT) and Pisier's property $(\alpha)$ has maximal regularity (up to a…

Using coordinates $(x,y)\in \mathbb R\times \mathbb R^{d-1}$, we introduce the notion that an unbounded domain in $\mathbb R^d$ is star shaped with respect to $x=\pm \infty$. For such domains, we prove estimates on the resolvent of the…

We prove sharp Strichartz estimates for the semi-classical Schrodinger equation on a compact manifold with smooth, strictly geodesically concave boundary. We deduce sharp (classical) Strichartz estimates for the Schrodinger equation outside…

We address an interesting question raised by Dos Santos Ferreira, Kenig and Salo about regions ${\mathcal R}_g\subset {\mathbb C}$ for which there can be uniform $L^{\frac{2n}{n+2}}\to L^{\frac{2n}{n-2}}$ resolvent estimates for…

We extend our recent results on propagation of semiclassical resolvent estimates through trapped sets when a priori polynomial resolvent bounds hold. Previously we obtained non-trapping estimates in trapping situations when the resolvent…

We study inverse boundary problems for semilinear Schr\"odinger equations on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds of dimensions $\ge 2$ with smooth boundary, at a large fixed frequency. We show that certain classes of cubic nonlinearities…

In a planar infinite strip with a fast oscillating boundary we consider an elliptic operator assuming that both the period and the amplitude of the oscillations are small. On the oscillating boundary we impose Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin…

We consider solutions to the linear wave equation on non-compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary when the geodesic flow admits a filamentary hyperbolic trapped set. We obtain a polynomial rate of local energy decay with exponent…

We consider the Dirichlet realization of the operator $-h^2\Delta+iV$ in the semi-classical limit $h\to0$, where $V$ is a smooth real potential with no critical points. For a one dimensional setting, we obtain the complete asymptotic…

For a conformally compact manifold that is hyperbolic near infinity and of dimension $n+1$, we complete the proof of the optimal $O(r^{n+1})$ upper bound on the resonance counting function, correcting a mistake in the existing literature.…

We establish a sharp geometric constant for the upper bound on the resonance counting function for surfaces with hyperbolic ends. An arbitrary metric is allowed within some compact core, and the ends may be of hyperbolic planar, funnel, or…

Let $H$ be a Schr\"odinger type operator with long-range perturbation. We study the wave front set of the distribution kernel of $(H-\lambda\mp i0)^{-1}$, where $\lambda$ is in the absolutely continous spectrumof $H$.The result is a…

We construct a semi-classical parametrix for the Laplacian on non-trapping asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, which generalizes the construction of Melrose, Sa Barreto and Vasy. As applications, we obtain high energy resolvent estimates…
