We consider the energy of the torsion problem with Robin boundary conditions in the case where the solution is not a minimizer. Its dependence on the volume of the domain and the surface area of the boundary is discussed. In contrast to the…

In this thesis I demonstrate that isospectral domains, that is domains of differing geometric shapes that possess identical spectra, do not remain isospectral when subject to uniform rotation. One thus *can* hear the shape of a rotating…

Let $M$ be a compact connected smooth manifold with smooth boundary, and let $\rho$ be a positive continuous function on the boundary which is served as the Robin parameter. In this paper, we study three problems concerning the prescription…

We consider a magnetic Schroedinger operator in a planar infinite strip with frequently and non-periodically alternating Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions. Assuming that the homogenized boundary condition is the Dirichlet or the Robin…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian with homogeneous Robin boundary conditions, when the (positive) Robin parameter is diverging. In this framework, since the convergence of the Robin eigenvalues to…

The spectral theory of the p-Laplacian is well developed for classical Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions, but the transitional Robin regime on exterior domains remains largely unexplored. This paper studies a weighted p-Laplacian…

The classical Birkhoff conjecture claims that the boundary of a strictly convex integrable billiard table is necessarily an ellipse (or a circle as a special case). In this article we prove a complete local version of this conjecture: a…
