We derive upper bounds for the eigenvalues of the Kirchhoff Laplacian on a compact metric graph depending on the graph's genus g. These bounds can be further improved if $g = 0$, i.e. if the metric graph is planar. Our results are based on…
We represent in this note the solutions of the electronic Schr\"odinger equation as traces of higher-dimensional functions. This allows to decouple the electron-electron interaction potential but comes at the price of a degenerate elliptic…
The known upper bounds for the multiplicities of the Laplace-Beltrami operator eigenvalues on the real projective plane are improved for the eigenvalues with even indexes. Upper bounds for Dirichlet, Neumann and Steklov eigenvalues on the…
The Baran metric $\delta_E$ is a Finsler metric on the interior of $E\subset \R^n$ arising from Pluripotential Theory. We consider the few instances, namely $E$ being the ball, the simplex, or the sphere, where $\delta_E$ is known to be…

We study various generalizations of concentration of measure on the unit sphere, in particular by means of log-Sobolev inequalities. First, we show Sudakov-type concentration results and local semicircular laws for weighted random matrices.…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension >2. We show that there is a metric h conformal to g and of volume 1 such that the first positive eigenvalue the conformal Laplacian with repect to h is arbitrarily large. A similar…
We study the limiting behavior of eigenfunctions/eigenvalues of the Laplacian of a family of Riemannian metrics that degenerates on a hypersurface. Our results generalize earlier work concerning the degeneration of hyperbolic surfaces.
We investigate the distribution of eigenvalues of the weighted Laplacian on closed weighted Riemannian manifolds of nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature. We derive some universal inequalities among eigenvalues of the weighted Laplacian…
Let $(M^n,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 3$. Assume $[g]$ is a conformal class for which the Conformal Laplacian $L_g$ has at least two negative eigenvalues. We show the existence of a (generalized) metric that…
We describe a new approach to understanding averages of high energy Laplace eigenfunctions, $u_h$, over submanifolds, $$ \Big|\int _H u_hd\sigma_H\Big| $$ where $H\subset M$ is a submanifold and $\sigma_H$ the induced by the Riemannian…
We provide an observability inequality in terms of a measurable set for general Gevrey regular functions. As an application, we establish an observability estimate from a measurable set for sums of Laplace eigenfunctions in a compact and…
Matrix concentration inequalities provide a direct way to bound the typical spectral norm of a random matrix. The methods for establishing these results often parallel classical arguments, such as the Laplace transform method. This work…
We prove two upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues of a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The first involves the volume of the manifold and of its boundary, as well as packing and volume growth constants of the boundary and its…
Consider the sum of the first $N$ eigenspaces for the Laplacian on a Riemannian manifold. A basis for this space determines a map to Euclidean space and for $N$ sufficiently large the map is an embedding. In analogy with a fruitful idea of…
Upper bounds for the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a hypersurface bounding a domain in some ambient Riemannian manifold are given in terms of the isoperimetric ratio of the domain. These results are applied to the…
The property of measure concentration is that an arbitrary 1-Lipschitz function $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ on an mm-space $X$ is almost close to a constant function. In this paper, we prove that if such a concentration phenomenon arise, then any…
In this paper, we compute universal inequalities of eigenvalues of a large class of second-order elliptic differential operators in divergence form, that includes, e.g., the Laplace and Cheng-Yau operators, on a bounded domain in a complete…
