Let $M$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian volume measure is denoted by $\sigma$. Let $f: M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a non-constant eigenfunction of the Laplacian. The random wave conjecture suggests that in…

We consider divergence form elliptic operators of the form $L=-\dv A(x)\nabla$, defined in $R^{n+1} = \{(x,t)\in R^n \times R \}$, $n \geq 2$, where the $L^{\infty}$ coefficient matrix $A$ is $(n+1)\times(n+1)$, uniformly elliptic, complex…

Let $N\geq 1$ and $s\in (0,1)$. In the present work we characterize bounded open sets $\Omega$ with $ C^2$ boundary (\textit{not necessarily connected}) for which the following overdetermined problem \begin{equation*} ( -\Delta)^s u = f(u)…

We show that any 2-valued C^{1, \alpha} (\alpha \in (0, 1)) function u = {u_{1}, u_{2}} on an open ball B in {\mathbb R}^{n} with values u_{1}, u_{2} \in {\mathbb R}^{k} whose graph, viewed as a varifold with multiplicity 2 at points where…

Let $\Omega$ be a connected open subset of $\Ri^d$. We analyze $L_1$-uniqueness of real second-order partial differential operators $H=-\sum^d_{k,l=1}\partial_k\,c_{kl}\,\partial_l$ and $K=H+\sum^d_{k=1}c_k\,\partial_k+c_0$ on $\Omega$…

Dear Reader, please find the third and last part of a series of papers on the singular perturbation of the first eigenfunction associated to a non self-adjoint second order elliptic operators. This series started in 1999 and we presented…

Given a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$, the Lempert function is a functional on the space $Hol (\D,\Omega)$ of analytic disks with values in $\Omega$, depending on a set of poles in $\Omega$. We generalize its definition to the case…

We consider Laplacian eigenfunctions on a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. Under Neumann boundary conditions, the first eigenfunction is constant and the others have mean value 0. The situation is different for Dirichlet boundary…

We consider the wave equation on a closed Riemannian manifold. We observe the restriction of the solutions to a measurable subset $\omega$ along a time interval $[0, T]$ with $T>0$. It is well known that, if $\omega$ is open and if the pair…

We take an open regular domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n\ge 3$. We introduce a pair of positive parameters $\epsilon_1$ and $\epsilon_2$ and we set $\epsilon\equiv(\epsilon_1,\epsilon_2)$. Then we define the perforated domain…
