We study an inverse boundary value problem associated with $p$-Laplacian which is further perturbed by a linear second order term, defined on a bounded set $\Omega$ in $\R^n, n\geq 2$. We recover the coefficients at the boundary from the…

In this paper, we consider the optimization problem for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_p$, $1< p< \infty$, over a family of doubly connected planar domains $\Omega= B \setminus \overline{P}$,…

Using the definition of a Finsler--Laplacian given by the first author, we show that two bi-Lipschitz Finsler metrics have a controlled spectrum. We deduce from that several generalizations of Riemannian results. In particular, we show that…

In this paper, we use a weighted isoperimetric inequality to give a lower bound on the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian on a bounded domain inside a Euclidean cone. Our bound is sharp, in that only sectors realize it. This result…

We study the limit of first eigenfunctions of (discrete) $p$-Laplacian on a finite subset of a graph with Dirichlet boundary condition, as $p\to 1.$ We prove that up to a subsequence, they converge to a summation of characteristic functions…

In this paper, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for lower order eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on bounded domains of a Euclidean space which strengthens the well-known Ashbaugh-Beguria inequality conjectured by…

We prove a general Mosco convergence theorem for bounded Euclidean domains satisfying a set of mild geometric hypotheses. For bounded domains, this notion implies norm-resolvent convergence for the Dirichlet Laplacian which in turn ensures…

We derive sharp bounds for three types of eigenvalue problems. First, we derive an upper bound for the first $p$-Dirichlet eigenvalue on conformally compact (CC) spaces. As a consequence, we show that for a class of CC submanifolds of…

The classical Faber-Krahn inequality asserts that balls (uniquely) minimize the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplacian among sets with given volume. In this paper we prove a sharp quantitative enhancement of this result, thus…

Intrinsic volumes are fundamental geometric invariants generalizing volume, surface area, and mean width for convex bodies. We establish a unified Laplace-Grassmannian representation for intrinsic and dual volumes of convex polynomial…

We prove that the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a triangle in the plane is bounded above by $\pi^2 L^2\over 9A^2$, where $L$ is the perimeter and $A$ is the area of this triangle. We show that the \mbox{constant 9} is…

We develop eigenvalue estimates for the Laplacians on discrete and metric graphs using different types of boundary conditions at the vertices of the metric graph. Via an explicit correspondence of the equilateral metric and discrete graph…
