We introduce a new variational principle for the study of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacians with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions on planar domains. In contrast to the classical variational principles, its minimizers…
We survey recent results related to the concentration of eigenfunctions. We also prove some new results concerning ball-concentration, as well as showing that eigenfunctions saturating lower bounds for $L^1$-norms must also, in a measure…
We study the size of nodal sets of Laplacian eigenfunctions on compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary and recover the currently optimal lower bound by comparing the heat flow of the eigenfunction with that of an artifically…
In this paper we continue our study of the Laplacian on manifolds with axial analytic asymptotically cylindrical ends initiated in~arXiv:1003.2538. By using the complex scaling method and the Phragm\'{e}n-Lindel\"{o}f principle we prove…
The asymptotic behavior of the first eigenvalues of magnetic Laplacian operators with large magnetic fields and Neumann realization in polyhedral domains is characterized by a hierarchy of model problems. We investigate properties of the…
The eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on bounded, planar, convex domains with mixed boundary conditions is considered, where a Dirichlet boundary condition is imposed on a part of the boundary and a Neumann boundary condition on its…
We build a one-parameter family of S^{1}-invariant metrics on the unit disc with fixed total area for which the second eigenvalue of the Laplace operator in the case of both Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions is simple and has an…
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 consider the nonlinear eigenvalue problem, with Dirichlet boundary condition, for a class of very degenerate elliptic operators, with the aim to show that, at least for square type domains having fixed volume, the symmetry of the domain…
- In this article, we prove some universal bounds on the speed of concentration on small (frequency-dependent) neighborhoods of submanifolds of L 2-norms of quasi modes for Laplace operators on compact manifolds. We deduce new results on…
We prove various estimates for the first eigenvalue of the magnetic Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded domain in two dimensions. When the magnetic field is constant, we give lower and upper bounds in terms of geometric quantities of the…
We provide the estimates for the constant in the weighted Poincar\'e inequality for a special class of planar domains and weights. Based on this, we prove the lower bounds for the first non-zero eigenvalue $\mu_\rho$ of the Neumann…
This work deals with the characterization of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian $\mathcal{L}$ on a homogeneous tree $\mathcal{X}$, which satisfy certain growth conditions. More precisely, we shall prove that the Poisson transform on…
We study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the surfaces of four of the regular polyhedrons: tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron and cube. We show two types of eigenfunctions: nonsingular ones that are smooth at vertices,…
We study the critical points of Laplace eigenfunctions on polygonal domains with a focus on the second Neumann eigenfunction. We show that if each convex quadrilaterals has no second Neumann eigenfunction with an interior critical point,…
We consider an orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a rational polygon. The modulus squared of the eigenfunctions defines a sequence of probability measures. We prove that this sequence contains a density-one…
We deal with eigenvalue problems for the Laplacian with varying mixed boundary conditions, consisting in homogeneous Neumann conditions on a vanishing portion of the boundary and Dirichlet conditions on the complement. By the study of an…
This expository note explores Laplacian eigenfunction localization for compact domains. We work in the context of a particular numerically determined, localized, low frequency eigenfunction.
The lowest eigenvalue of the Laplacian within the S-sided regular polygon with Dirichlet boundary conditions is the focus of this report. As suggested by others, this eigenvalue may be expressed as an asymptotic expansion in powers of 1/S…
A Laplacian eigenfunction on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold provides a natural partition into Neumann domains (a.k.a. a Morse--Smale complex). This partition is generated by gradient flow lines of the eigenfunction, which bound the…
