Consider operators $L^{V}:=\Delta + V$ in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. Assume that $V\in C^{1,1}(\Omega)$ and $V$ satisfies $V(x) \leq \overline{a} \mathrm{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)^{-2}$ in $\Omega$ and a second…

We give a proof that the first eigenfunction of the $\alpha$-symmetric stable process on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\R^d$, $d\geq 1$, is superharmonic for $\alpha=2/m$, where $m>2$ is an integer. This result was first proved for the…

We use heat kernels or eigenfunctions of the Laplacian to construct local coordinates on large classes of Euclidean domains and Riemannian manifolds (not necessarily smooth, e.g. with $\mathcal{C}^\alpha$ metric). These coordinates are…

Let $e_\l(x)$ be an eigenfunction with respect to the Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta_N$ on a compact Riemannian manifold $N$ with boundary: $\Delta_N e_\l=\l^2 e_\l$ in the interior of $N$ and $e_\l=0$ on the boundary of $N$. We show the…
