In a Hadamard manifold $M$, it is proved that if $u$ is a $\lambda$-eigenfunction of the Laplacian that belongs to $L^p(M)$ for some $p \ge 2$, then $u$ is bounded and $\|u\|_{\infty} \le C \|u\|_p,$ where $C$ depends only on $p$, $\lambda$…
We show that for a generic $8$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature, there exists a smooth minimal hypersurface. Without the curvature condition, we show that for a dense set of 8-dimensional Riemannian metrics…
This article contains a generalization of the authors' results on numbers of nodal points of eigenfunctions on "good curves" in analytic plane domains (arXiv:0710.0101). The term `good' means that the $L^2$ norms of restrictions of…
In this paper we consider the problem of prescribing the nodal set of low-energy eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Our main result is that, given any separating closed hypersurface \Sigma in a compact n-manifold M, there is a Riemannian…
Let $S$ be a hypersurface in $\Bbb R^3$ which is the graph of a smooth, finite type function $\phi,$ and let $\mu=\rho\, d\si$ be a surface carried measure on $S,$ where $d\si$ denotes the surface element on $S$ and $\rho$ a smooth density…
On a closed analytic manifold $(M,g)$, let $\phi_i$ be the eigenfunctions of $\Delta_g$ with eigenvalues $\lambda_i^2$ and let $f:=\prod \phi_{k_j}$ be a finite product of Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions. We show that $\left\langle f,…
We prove that for any given compact Riemannian manifold $N$ of dimension $n+1 \geq 3$ and any non-negative Lipschitz function $g$ on $N$, there exists a quasi-embedded, boundaryless hypersurface $M \subset N,$ of class $C^{2, \alpha}$ for…
We prove curvature estimates for general curvature functions. As an application we show the existence of closed, strictly convex hypersurfaces with prescribed curvature $F$, where the defining cone of $F$ is $\C_+$. $F$ is only assumed to…
On a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$, we consider $n$ eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator $\Delta $ with eigenvalue $\lambda$. If $M$ is homogeneous under a compact Lie group preserving the metric then we prove that the…

Let $u$ be an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a compact manifold with boundary, with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions, and let $-\lambda^2$ be the corresponding eigenvalue. We consider the problem of estimating the maximum of $u$…
Let M be a compact manifold of dimension n, P = P(h) a semiclassical pseudodifferential operator on M, and u = u(h) an L^2 normalised family of functions such that Pu is O(h) in L^2(M) as h goes to 0. Let H be a compact submanifold of M. In…
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth connected Riemannian manifold. We show an improvement of flatness theorem for hypersurfaces of $M$ of bounded nonlocal mean curvature in the viscosity sense. It implies local $ C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity of these…
We obtain an estimate for the norm of the second fundamental form of stable H-surfaces in Riemannian 3-manifolds with bounded sectional curvature. Our estimate depends on the distance to the boundary of the surface and on the bounds on the…
We address the problem of integrability of the sub-Riemannian mean curvature of an embedded hypersurface around isolated characteristic points. The main contribution of this note is the introduction of a concept of mildly degenerate…
Suppose that $M$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and $u$ is an $L^2$-normalized Dirichlet eigenfunction with eigenvalue $\lambda$. Let $\psi$ be its normal derivative at the boundary. Scaling considerations lead one to expect…
If a graph submanifold $(x,f(x))$ of a Riemannian warped product space $(M^m\times_{e^{\psi}}N^n,\tilde{g}=g+e^{2\psi}h)$ is immersed with parallel mean curvature $H$, then we obtain a Heinz type estimation of the mean curvature. Namely, on…
If mu is a smooth density on a hypersurface in R^d whose curvature never vanishes to infinite order, and A is a d-by-d matrix whose eigenvalues all have absolute value greater than 1, then the maximal function given by convolving f with…
We prove the existence of smooth closed hypersurfaces of prescribed mean curvature homeomorphic to $S^n$ for small $n, n\le6$, provided there are barriers.
A compact Riemannian manifold may be immersed into Euclidean space by using high frequency Laplace eigenfunctions. We study the geometry of the manifold viewed as a metric space endowed with the distance function from the ambient Euclidean…
