Let $T$ be a finite tree with leaf set $\dO$ as the boundary and let $\lambda_2$ be the first nontrivial Steklov eigenvalue. Let $D$ and $\ell$ be the maximum vertex degree and the number of leaves, respectively. Motivated by the spectral…

We give an upper bound on the maximal eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a connected graph in terms of its maximum degree, diameter and order. This bound is best possible up to a constant factor and improves prevoius results of…

In this note, we improve the lower bounds for the maximum size of the $k$th largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph for several values of $k$. In particular, we show that closed blowups of the icosahedral graph improve the…

In this paper we prove that given a volume, among all domains with smooth boundary in rank-1 symmetric spaces of noncompact type, geodesic balls maximizes the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue. We also prove a comparison result for the first…

This work is an extension of a result given by Kuttler and Sigillito (SIAM Rev $10$:$368-370$, $1968$) on a star-shaped bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let $\Omega$ be a star-shaped bounded domain in a hypersurface of revolution, having…

In this paper, we investigate the monotonicity of the first Steklov--Dirichlet eigenvalue on eccentric annuli with respect to the distance, namely $t$, between the centers of the inner and outer boundaries of an annulus. We first show the…

We show several results comparing sharp eigenvalue bounds for the first Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces under change of the topology. Among others, we obtain strict monotonicity in the genus. Combined with results of the second named author…

In this paper, we obtain a lower bound for the smallest eigenvalue of a regular graph containing many copies of a smaller fixed subgraph. This generalizes a result of Aharoni, Alon, and Berger in which the subgraph is a triangle. We apply…

We prove a lower bound for the first Steklov eigenvalue of embedded minimal hypersurfaces with free boundary in a compact $n$-dimensional manifold which has nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary. When $n=3$, this implies…

We give a bound on the spectral radius of subgraphs of regular graphs with given order and diameter. We give a lower bound on the smallest eigenvalue of a nonbipartite regular graph of given order and diameter.

An embedded free boundary minimal surface in the 3-ball has a Steklov eigenvalue of one due to its coordinate functions. Fraser and Li conjectured that whether one is the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue. In this paper, we show that if an…

We show that the ball does not maximize the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue among all contractible domains of fixed boundary volume in $\mathbb{R}^n$ when $n \geq 3$. This is in contrast to the situation when $n=2$, where a result of…

We prove sharp upper bounds for eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators on quantum graphs with $\delta$-coupling (also known as Robin) conditions at all vertices. The bounds depend on the geometry of the graph, on the potential, and the…

The Steklov eigenvalue problem, first introduced over 125 years ago, has seen a surge of interest in the past few decades. This article is a tour of some of the recent developments linking the Steklov eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of…

We study the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on a finite subgraph of the integer lattice Zn. We estimate the first n+1 eigenvalues using the number of vertices of the subgraph. As a corollary, we prove that the first…

We establish new bounds on the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues among real symmetric matrices with nonzero off-diagonal pattern described by the edges of a graph and apply these to determine the minimum number of distinct eigenvalues…

We establish a Harnack inequality for finite connected graphs with non-negative Ricci curvature. As a consequence, we derive an eigenvalue lower bound, extending previous results for Ricci flat graphs.
