This article is the continuation of our first work on the determination of the cases where there is equality in Courant's Nodal Domain theorem in the case of a Robin boundary condition (with Robin parameter $h$). For the square, our first…

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 eigenvalues of the Laplacian on an open, bounded, connected set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^2$ boundary, with a Neumann boundary condition or a Robin boundary condition. We obtain upper bounds for those eigenvalues that have a…

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 give a counterexample to the long standing conjecture that the ball maximises the first eigenvalue of the Robin eigenvalue problem with negative parameter among domains of the same volume. Furthermore, we show that the conjecture holds…

{\AA} Pleijel has proved that in the case of the Laplacian on the square with Neumann condition, the equality in the Courant nodal theorem (Courant sharp situation) can only be true for a finite number of eigenvalues. We identify five…

We investigate the Robin eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian with negative boundary parameter on quadrilateral domains of fixed area. In this paper, we prove that the square is a local maximiser of the first eigenvalue with respect to the…

In this paper, we determine, in the case of the Laplacian on the flat three-dimensional torus $(\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})^3$, all the eigenvalues having an eigenfunction which satisfies the Courant nodal domains theorem with equality…

Robin problem for the Laplacian in a bounded planar domain with a smooth boundary and a large parameter in the boundary condition is considered. We prove a two-sided three-term asymptotic estimate for the negative eigenvalues. Furthermore,…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the principal eigenvalue of a Robin (or generalised Neumann) problem with a large parameter in the boundary condition for the Laplacian in a piecewise smooth domain. We show that the leading asymptotic…

We prove an improved Pleijel nodal domain theorem for the Robin eigenvalue problem. In particular we remove the restriction, imposed in previous work, that the Robin parameter be non-negative. We also improve the upper bound in the…

We study some properties of Laplacian eigenvalues with negative Robin boundary conditions. We will show some monotonicity properties on annuli of the first eigenvalue by means of shape optimization techniques.

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n\ge 2$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain with outer unit normal $\nu$. For $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$ let $R_\Omega^\alpha$ be the Laplacian in $\Omega$ with the Robin boundary condition $\partial_\nu u+\alpha…

This paper deals with eigenelements of the Laplacian in bounded domains, under Robin boundary conditions, without any assumption on the sign of the Robin parameter. We quantify the asymptotics of the variation of simple eigenvalues under…

We study the eigenvalues of the Laplacian with a strong attractive Robin boundary condition in curvilinear polygons. It was known from previous works that the asymptotics of several first eigenvalues is essentially determined by the corner…

The first two eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian are investigated along with their gap and ratio. Conjectures by various authors for arbitrary domains are supported here by new results for rectangular boxes. Results for rectangular domains…
