We give a lower estimate of the gap of the first two eigenvalues of the Schrodinger operator in the case when the potential is strongly convex. In particular, if the Hessian of the potential is bounded from below by a positive constant, the…

The fractional Laplacian operator, $-(-\triangle)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$, appears in a wide class of physical systems, including L\'evy flights and stochastic interfaces. In this paper, we provide a discretized version of this operator which…

Motivated by an example of Shih, we compute the fundamental gap of a family of convex domains in the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb H^2$, showing that for some of them $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1 < \frac{3\pi^2}{D^2}$, where $D$ is the diameter of…

We consider the fractional Schrodinger equation with a logarithmic nonlinearity, when the power of the Laplacian is between zero and one. We prove global existence results in three different functional spaces: the Sobolev space…

We establish a lower bound and an upper bound to the sum of the Fractional-Logarithmic Laplacian. A main challenge in such a study comes from the fact that this operator has a Fourier symbol that is not globally monotone in its radial…

We develop a sharp boundary trace theory in arbitrary bounded Lipschitz domains which, in contrast to classical results, allows "forbidden" endpoints and permits the consideration of functions exhibiting very limited regularity. This is…
