Given a compact surface with boundary, we introduce a family of functionals on the space of its Riemannian metrics, defined via eigenvalues of a Steklov-type problem. We prove that each such functional is uniformly bounded from above, and…

We study the interior nodal sets, $Z_\lambda$ of Steklov eigenfunctions in an $n$-dimensional relatively compact manifolds $M$ with boundary and show that one has the lower bounds $|Z_\lambda|\ge c\lambda^{\frac{2-n}2}$ for the size of its…

We introduce a graph $\Gamma$ which is roughly isometric to the hyperbolic plane and we study the Steklov eigenvalues of a subgraph with boundary $\Omega$ of $\Gamma$. For $(\Omega_l)_{l\geq 1}$ a sequence of subraphs of $\Gamma$ such that…

In this paper, we considered the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta_\epsilon$ on $\Omega_\epsilon=\{(x,y): -l_1<x<l_2, 0<y<\epsilon h(x)]\}$ where $ l_1,l_2>0$ and $h(x)$ is a positive analytic function having $0$ the only point…

We consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator (DNO) on nearly-hyperspherical domains in dimension greater than 3. Treating such domains as perturbations of the ball, we prove the analytic dependence of the DNO on the shape perturbation…
