We obtain upper bounds on the number of nodal domains of Laplace eigenfunctions on chain domains with Neumann boundary conditions. The chain domains consist of a family of planar domains, with piecewise smooth boundary, that are joined by…

This paper is devoted to the determination of the cases where there is equality in Courant's nodal domain theorem in the case of a Robin boundary condition. For the square, we partially extend the results that were obtained by Pleijel,…

We consider the cases where there is equality in Courant's nodal domain theorem for the Laplacian with a Robin boundary condition on the square. In our previous two papers, we treated the cases where the Robin parameter $h>0$ is large,…

We consider the Courant-sharp eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian for bounded, connected, open sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 2$, with Lipschitz boundary. We prove Pleijel's theorem which implies that there are only finitely many…

We find the Courant-sharp Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on some 2-rep-tile domains. In $\R^{2}$ the domains we consider are the isosceles right triangle and the rectangle with edge ratio $\sqrt{2}$ (also known as the A4 paper). In…
