A property of smooth convex domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is that if two points on the boundary $x, y \in \partial \Omega$ are close to each other, then their normal vectors $n(x), n(y)$ point roughly in the same direction and this…

Spectrahedra are linear sections of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices that, as convex bodies, generalize the class of polyhedra. In this paper we investigate the problem of recognizing when a spectrahedron is polyhedral. We reprove…

We prove the following for a bounded convex planar domain that is symmetric with respect to both coordinate axes. Consider a centered rectangle with sides parallel to the axes that strictly contains the domain. If the domain is not a…

The extent to which the geometry of an object is determined by some associated spectral data is a longstanding problem. We investigate this problem in the context of the Steklov spectrum, focusing on convex polygons. We prove that almost…

A bounded set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is called a spectral set if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ admits a complete orthogonal system of exponential functions. We prove that a cylindric set $\Omega$ is spectral if and only if its base is a…

We prove that, under some generic non-degeneracy assumptions, real analytic, centrally symmetric plane domains are determined by their Dirichlet (resp. Neumann) spectra. We prove that the conditions are open-dense for real analytic convex…

For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m, m\geq 2,$ of class $C^0$, the properties are studied of fields of `good directions', that is the directions with respect to which $\partial\Omega$ can be locally represented as the graph of a…

A set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is said to be spectral if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of exponential functions. It is well-known that in many respects, spectral sets "behave like" sets which can tile the space by…

We consider stable solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. A classical result of Casten, Holland [20] and Matano [44] states that all stable solutions are constant in convex bounded domains.…

A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set $\Omega$ in space, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials. If $\Omega$ has…

An integrable polygon is one whose interior angles are fractions of $\pi$; that is to say of the form $\frac \pi n$ for positive integers $n$. We consider the Laplace spectrum on these polygons with the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary…

Let ${\cal D}$ denote the class of bounded real analytic plane domains with the symmetry of an ellipse. We prove that if $\Omega_1, \Omega_2 \in {\cal D}$ and if the Dirichlet spectra coincide, $Spec(\Omega_1) = Spec(\Omega_2)$, then…

We consider a partially overdetermined problem in a sector-like domain $\Omega$ in a cone $\Sigma$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 2$, and prove a rigidity result of Serrin type by showing that the existence of a solution implies that $\Omega$ is…

In this article, we develop a technique to "split" certain types of partially ordered sets into simpler ones and use that technique to give a partial answer to a conjecture by R. Wiegand and S. Wiegand on the structure of semi-local,…

There exist several interesting results in the literature on subnormal operator tuples having their spectral properties tied to the geometry of strictly pseudoconvex domains or to that of bounded symmetric domains in $\C^n$. We introduce a…

We prove that the presence or absence of corners is spectrally determined in the following sense: any simply connected domain with piecewise smooth Lipschitz boundary cannot be isospectral to any connected domain, of any genus, which has…

We consider a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ with sufficiently smooth boundary and prove piecewise Sobolev regularity of vector fields that have piecewise regular curl and divergence, but may be discontinuous across…

Consider a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ and a measurable function $\mu$ supported in $\overline\Omega$ with $\left\|{\mu}\right\|_{L^\infty}<1$. Then the derivatives of a quasiconformal solution of the Beltrami equation $\overline{\partial} f…

We consider the class of semi-stable positive solutions to semilinear equations $-\Delta u=f(u)$ in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ of double revolution, that is, a domain invariant under rotations of the first $m$ variables and…

Let $\Omega$ be a planar Jordan domain. We consider double-dome-like surfaces $\Sigma$ defined by graphs of functions of $dist( \cdot ,\partial \Omega)$ over $\Omega$. The goal is to find the right conditions on the geometry of the base…
