We establish two-sided estimates for the fundamental frequency (the lowest eigenvalue) of the Laplacian in an open subset G of R^n with the Dirichlet boundary condition. This is done in terms of the interior capacitary radius of G which is…

In this paper we propose two numerical algorithms to derive the extremal principal eigenvalue of the bi-Laplacian operator under Navier boundary conditions or Dirichlet boundary conditions. Consider a non-homogeneous hinged or clamped plate…

We prove sharp bounds on eigenvalues of the Laplacian that complement the Faber--Krahn and Luttinger inequalities. In particular, we prove that the ball maximizes the first eigenvalue and minimizes the spectral zeta function and heat trace.…

For $d\geq 2$ and $\frac{2d+2}{d+2} < p < \infty $, we prove a strict Faber-Krahn type inequality for the first eigenvalue $\lambda _1(\Omega )$ of the $p$-Laplace operator on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ (with…

The celebrated conjecture by Payne, P\'{o}lya and Weinberger (1956) states that for the fixed membrane problem, the ratio of the first two eigenvalues, $\lambda_2/\lambda_1$, is maximized by a disk. A more general dimensional version of…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^\nu$, $\nu\ge 2$, be a $C^{1,1}$ domain whose boundary $\partial\Omega$ is either compact or behaves suitably at infinity. For $p\in(1,\infty)$ and $\alpha>0$, define \[…

This paper is concerned with the lower bounds for the principal frequency of the $p$-Laplacian on $n$-dimensional Euclidean domains. In particular, we extend the classical results involving the inner radius of a domain and the first…

We consider the following eigenvalue optimization in the composite membrane problem with fractional Laplacian: given a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $\alpha>0$ and $0<A<|\Omega|$, find a subset $D\subset \Omega$ of area $A$…

We prove that the highest density of non-overlapping translates of a given centrally symmetric convex domain relative to its outer parallel domain of given outer radius is attained by a lattice packing in the Euclidean plane. This…

Frequency locking in forced oscillatory systems typically occurs in 'V'-shaped domains in the plane spanned by the forcing frequency and amplitude, the so-called Arnol'd tongues. Here, we show that if the medium is spatially extended and…

Let $\Omega$ be an open, bounded domain in the plane with connected and smooth boundary, and $\omega$ an eigenfunction of the Neumann Laplacian corresponding to some Neumann eigenvalue $\mu > 0$. If the boundary value of $\omega$ is a…

We obtained estimates for first eigenvalues of the Dirichlet boundary value problem for elliptic operators in divergence form (i.e. for the principal frequency of non-homogeneous membranes) in bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$…

We discuss the asymptotic lower bound on the inner radius of nodal domains that arise from Laplacian eigenfunctions $ \phi_\lambda $ on a closed Riemannian manifold $ (M,g) $. First, in the real-analytic case we present an improvement of…

In this paper we prove that if $\Omega\in\mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded John domain, the following weighted Poincare-type inequality holds: $$ \inf_{a\in \mathbb{R}}\| (f(x)-a) w_1(x) \|_{L^q(\Omega)} \le C \|\nabla f(x) d(x)^\alpha w_2(x)…

For a given bounded Lipschitz set $\Omega$, we consider a Steklov--type eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian operator whose solutions provide extremal functions for the compact embedding $H^1(\Omega)\hookrightarrow L^2(\partial \Omega)$. We…

The main purpose of this paper is to prove a sharp Sobolev inequality in an exterior of a convex bounded domain. There are two ingredients in the proof: One is the observation of some new isoperimetric inequalities with partial free…

Let $B_1$ be a ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$ centred at the origin and $B_0$ be a smaller ball compactly contained in $B_1$. For $p\in(1, \infty)$, using the shape derivative method, we show that the first eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian in…

We prove a sharp $L^p$ weighted Hardy inequality involving boundary distance $\delta$ for any domain $\Omega\subsetneq \mathbb R^n$. The inequality may be improved substantially under the additional assumption that $-\log \delta$ is…

We consider the problem of minimising the $k$th eigenvalue, $k \geq 2$, of the ($p$-)Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions with respect to all domains in $\mathbb{R}^N$ of given volume $M$. When $k=2$, we prove that the second eigenvalue…
