Being motivated by the theory of flexible polyhedra, we study the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues for the Laplace operator in special bounded domains of Euclidean $d$-space. The boundary of such a domain is an embedded simplicial complex…
It is well known that certain pairs of planar domains have the same spectra of the Laplacian operator. We prove that these domains are still isospectral for a wider class of physical problems, including the cases of heterogeneous drums and…
All the known counterexamples to Kac' famous question "can one hear the shape of a drum", i.e., does isospectrality of two Laplacians on domains imply that the domains are congruent, consist of pairs of domains composed of copies of…
Two Riemannian manifolds are said to be isospectral if the associated Laplace-Belttrami operators have the same eigenvalue spectrum. If the manifolds have boundary, one specifies DIrichlet or Neumann isospectrality depending on the boundary…
We reexamine the proofs of isospectrality of the counterexample domains to Kac' question `Can one hear the shape of a drum?' from an analytical viewpoint. We reformulate isospectrality in a more abstract setting as the existence of a…
In this paper, we prove some isoperimetric bounds for lower order eigenvalues of the Wentzell-Laplace operator on bounded domains of a Euclidean space or a Hadamard manifold, of the Laplacian on closed hypersurfaces of a Euclidean space or…
We give a number of examples of isospectral pairs of plane domains, and a particularly simple method of proving isospectrality. One of our examples is a pair of domains that are not only isospectral but homophonic: Each domain has a…
Consider a bounded domain with the Dirichlet condition on a part of the boundary and the Neumann condition on its complement. Does the spectrum of the Laplacian determine uniquely which condition is imposed on which part? We present some…
Laplacian operators on finite compact metric graphs are considered under the assumption that matching conditions at graph vertices are of $\delta$ and $\delta'$ types. An infinite series of trace formulae is obtained which link together two…
We consider the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a planar domain and study the effect that performing a scaling in one direction has on the spectrum. We derive the asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalues and…
In this paper, we compute the second variation of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue on extremal domains in general Riemannian manifolds and establish a criterion for stability. We classify the stable extremal domains in the 2-sphere and…
We consider the Laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the hypersurfaces and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We…
Isospectral domains are non-isometric regions of space for which the spectra of the Laplace-Beltrami operator coincide. In the two-dimensional Euclidean space, instances of such domains have been given. It has been proved for these examples…
This paper concerns the asymptotic expansion of the solution of the Dirichlet-Laplace problem in a domain with small inclusions. This problem is well understood for the Neumann condition in dimension greater than two or Dirichlet condition…
The spectral properties of a class of non-selfadjoint second order elliptic operators with indefinite weight functions on unbounded domains $\Omega$ are investigated. It is shown that under an abstract regularity assumption the nonreal…
