We study the operator theory associated with such infinite graphs $G$ as occur in electrical networks, in fractals, in statistical mechanics, and even in internet search engines. Our emphasis is on the determination of spectral data for a…

We consider the Landau-Lifshitz equations of ferromagnetism (including the harmonic map heat-flow and Schroedinger flow as special cases) for degree m equivariant maps from R^2 to S^2. If m \geq 3, we prove that near-minimal energy…

By Cheeger-Colding's almost splitting theorem, if a domain in a Ricci flat manifold is pointed-Gromov-Hausdorff close to a lower dimensional Euclidean domain, then there is a harmonic almost splitting map. We show that any eigenfunction of…

Gravitational subsystems with boundaries carry the action of an infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra, with potentially profound implications for the quantum theory of gravity. We initiate an investigation into the quantization of this…

In an influential $L^2$ extension theorem due to Demailly, the finiteness of an $L^2$ norm called the Ohsawa norm determines whether a given holomorphic function can be extended. This result has been further generalized by Zhou and Zhu to…

We consider an eigenvalue problem for an inverted one dimensional harmonic oscillator. We find a complete description for the eigenproblem in $C^{\infty}(\mathbb R)$. The eigenfunctions are described in terms of the confluent hypergeometric…

We prove a microlocal lower bound on the mass of high energy eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on compact surfaces of negative curvature, and more generally on surfaces with Anosov geodesic flows. This implies controllability for the…

We develop the complex scaling for a manifold with an asymptotically cylindrical end under an assumption on the analyticity of the metric with respect to the axial coordinate of the end. We allow for arbitrarily slow convergence of the…

Quasi-normal-eigenvalue optimization is studied under constraints $b_1(x) \le B(x) \le b_2 (x)$ on structure functions $B$ of 2-side open optical or mechanical resonators. We prove existence of various optimizers and provide an example when…

We prove quantitative unique continuation results for solutions of $\Delta w - k^2 w = V w + W\cdot \nabla w$ in a neighborhood of infinity, where $k > 0$, and $V$ and $W$ are complex-valued decaying potentials that satisfy $|V(x)| \lesssim…

Bourgain used the Rudin-Shapiro sequences to construct a basis of uniformly bounded holomorphic functions on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{C}^2$. They are also spherical harmonics (i.e., Laplacian eigenfunctions) on $\mathbb{S}^3 \subset…

We prove a strong conditional unique continuation estimate for irreducible quasimodes in rotationally invariant neighbourhoods on compact surfaces of revolution. The estimate states that Laplace quasimodes which cannot be decomposed as a…
