In this announcement we consider an eigenvalue problem which arises in the study of rectangular membranes. The mathematical model is an elliptic equation, in potential form, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We have shown that the…
We consider the eigenvalue problem for the Laplace operator in a planar domain which can be decomposed into a bounded domain of arbitrary shape and elongated \branches" of variable cross-sectional profiles. When the eigenvalue is smaller…
When twisting a strip of paper or acetate under high longitudinal tension, one observes, at some critical load, a buckling of the strip into a regular triangular pattern. Very similar triangular facets have recently been observed in…
We show that, in contrast to the case of Laplace eigenfunctions, the nodal set of high energy eigenfunctions of the clamped plate problem is not necessarily dense, and can in fact exhibit macroscopic "nodal voids". Specifically, we show…
Let $\Omega$ be a star-shaped bounded domain in $(\mathbb{S}^{n}, ds^{2})$ with smooth boundary. In this article, we give a sharp lower bound for the first non-zero eigenvalue of the Steklov eigenvalue problem in $\Omega.$ This result is…
Dynamic buckling behavior of a column (rod, beam) under constant rate compression is considered. The buckling is caused by prescribed motion of column ends toward each other with constant velocity. Simple model with one degree of freedom…
We study the effects of a domain deformation to the nodal set of Laplacian eigenfunctions when the eigenvalue is degenerate. In particular, we study deformations of a rectangle that perturb one side and how they change the nodal sets…
In the thin wall approximation, we study a class of asymptotically AdS black holes which contain a spherically symmetric vacuum bubble with a different (positive or negative) cosmological constant. Collapsing, expanding, and static bubble…

We discuss an eigenvalue problem which arises in the studies of asymptotic stability of a self-similar attractor in the sigma model. This problem is rather unusual from the viewpoint of the spectral theory of linear operators and requires…
Topological defects are crucial to the thermodynamics and structure of condensed matter systems. For instance, when incorporated into crystalline membranes like graphene, disclinations with positive and negative topological charge…
We discuss shape profiles emerging in inhomogeneous growth of squeezed tissues. Two approaches are used simultaneously: i) conformal embedding of two-dimensional domain with hyperbolic metrics into the plane, and ii) a pure energetic…
We consider a class of eigenvalue problems for poly-harmonic operators, including Dirichlet and buckling-type eigenvalue problems. We prove an analyticity result for the dependence of the symmetric functions of the eigenvalues upon domain…
We consider a compact Riemannian manifold M endowed with a potential 1-form A and study the magnetic Laplacian associated with those data (with Neumann magnetic boundary condition if the bpoundary of M is not empty). We first establish a…
The Steklov eigenvalue problem, first introduced over 125 years ago, has seen a surge of interest in the past few decades. This article is a tour of some of the recent developments linking the Steklov eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of…
An new eigenvalue $\mathbb R$-linear problem arisen in the theory of metamaterials is stated and constructively investigated for circular non-overlapping inclusions. An asymptotic formula for eigenvalues is deduced when the radii of…
Motivated by a recent analysis which presents explicitly the general solution, we consider the eigenvalue problem of the spinless Salpeter equation with a ("hard-core amended") Coulomb potential in one dimension. We prove the existence of a…
We consider a singular perturbed eigenvalue problem for Laplace operator in a cylinder with frequent interchange of type of boundary condition on a lateral surface. These boundary conditions are prescribed by partition of lateral surface in…
We experimentally study compression of thin plates in rectangular boxes with variable height. A cascade of buckling is generated. It gives rise to a self-similar evolution of elastic reaction of plates with box height which surprisingly…
Beams made from thin-walled elements, whilst very efficient in terms of the structural strength and stiffness to weight ratios, can be susceptible to highly complex instability phenomena. A nonlinear analytical formulation based on…
