This is a paper based on a talk given at the conference on Conformal Geometry which held at Roscoff in France in the 2008 summer. We study some aspects of the equation arising from the problem of the existence on a given closed Riemannian…

A new analytical formulation is prescribed to solve the Helmholtz equation in 2D with arbitrary boundary. A suitable diffeomorphism is used to annul the asymmetries in the boundary by mapping it into an equivalent circle. This results in a…

If a variational problem comes with no boundary conditions prescribed beforehand, and yet these arise as a consequence of the variation process itself, we speak of a free boundary values variational problem. Such is, for instance, the…
