For integers $1 < k < d-1$ and $r \ge k+2$, we establish new lower bounds on the maximum number of points in $[n]^d$ such that no $r$ lie in a $k$-dimensional affine (or linear) subspace. These bounds improve on earlier results of…

In this paper we obtain several results concerning the optimization of higher Steklov eigenvalues both in two and higher dimensional cases. We first show that the normalized (by boundary length) $k$-th Steklov eigenvalue on the disk is not…

We consider the problem of maximising the largest eigenvalue of subgraphs of the hypercube $Q_d$ of a given order. We believe that in most cases, Hamming balls are maximisers, and our results support this belief. We show that the Hamming…

In this paper, we show an optimal volume growth for self-shrinkers, and estimate a lower bound of the first eigenvalue of $\mathcal{L}$ operator on self-shrinkers, inspired by the first eigenvalue conjecture on minimal hypersurfaces in the…

In this paper, we give a lower bound for the spectrum of the Laplacian on minimal hypersurfaces immersed into $H^m \times R$. As an application, in dimension 2, we prove that a complete minimal surface with finite total extrinsic curvature…
