We investigate nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problems whose growth is driven by a general anisotropic $N$-function, which is not necessarily of power type and need not satisfy the $\Delta_2$ nor the $\nabla _2$-condition. Fully anisotropic,…

The distinct dot products problem, a variant of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem, asks "Given a set $P_n$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$, what is the minimum number $|D(P_n)|$ of distinct dot products they determine?" The best…

We prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded domains $\O$ in the Euclidean space $\R^d$ for which the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on $\Omega$ admits sign-changing eigenfunctions with constant Neumann values on $\partial…

We study the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of a class of Schr\"odinger operators with a convex potential V on a domain $\Omega$. We find two length scales $L_1$ and $L_2$, and an orientation of the domain $\Omega$, which determine the shape…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with Lipschitz boundary and $\phi$ be a continuous function on $\overline{\Omega}$. We show that the Toeplitz operator $T_{\phi}$ with symbol $\phi$ is compact on the weighted…

We study the problem of constructing $k$-spectral minimal partitions of domains in $d$ dimensions, where the energy functional to be minimized is a $p$-norm ($1 \le p \le \infty$) of the infimum of the spectrum of a suitable Schr\"odinger…

Eigenvalue behaviors of Schr\"odinger operator defined on $n$-dimensional lattice with $n+1$ delta potentials is studied. It can be shown that lower threshold eigenvalue and lower threshold resonance are appeared for $n\geq 2$, and lower…

We consider minimizers of \[ F(\lambda_1(\Omega),\ldots,\lambda_N(\Omega)) + |\Omega|, \] where $F$ is a function nondecreasing in each parameter, and $\lambda_k(\Omega)$ is the $k$-th Dirichlet eigenvalue of $\Omega$. This includes, in…

We study the minimizers of a functional on the set of partitions of a domain $\Omega \subset R^n$ into $N$ subsets $W_j$ of locally finite perimeter in $\Omega$, whose main term is $\sum_{j=1^N} \int_{\Omega \cap \partial W_j} a(x)…

Let $\mathcal H$ be a reproducing kernel Hilbert space with a normalized complete Nevanlinna-Pick (CNP) kernel. We prove that if $(f_n)$ is a sequence of functions in $\mathcal H$ with $\sum\|f_n\|^2<\infty$, then there exists a contractive…

In this work, we give a characterization of Lipschitz operators on spaces of $C^2(M)$ functions (also $C^{1,1}$, $C^{1,\gamma}$, $C^1$, $C^\gamma$) that obey the global comparison property-- i.e. those that preserve the global ordering of…

The Khavinson-Shapiro conjecture states that ellipsoids are the only bounded domains in euclidean space satisfying the following property (KS): the solution of the Dirichlet problem for polynomial data is polynomial. In this paper we show…

By methods of stochastic analysis on Riemannian manifolds, we develop two approaches to determine an explicit constant $c(D)$ for an $n$-dimensional compact manifold $D$ with boundary such that $\frac{\lambda}{n}\,\|\phi\|_{\infty} \leq…

We prove upper bounds for Hecke-Laplace eigenfunctions on certain Riemannian manifolds of arithmetic type. The manifolds under consideration are d-fold products of 2-spheres or 3-spheres, realized as adelic quotients of quaternion algebras…

We study the principal Dirichlet eigenfunction $\varphi_U$ when the domain $U$ is a perturbation of a bounded inner uniform domain in a strictly local regular Dirichlet space. We prove that if $U$ is suitably contained in between two inner…
