We give explicit isoperimetric upper bounds for all Steklov eigenvalues of a compact orientable surface with boundary, in terms of the genus, the length of the boundary, and the number of boundary components. Our estimates generalize a…

In this article, we study the mixed Steklov--Neumann eigenvalue problem on doubly connected domains. First, we show that among all doubly connected domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form $B_{R_2}\setminus \overline{B_{R_1}}$, where $B_{R_1}$…

The Steklov eigenvalue problem was introduced over a century ago, and its discrete form attracted interest recently. Let $D$ and $\delta \Omega$ be the maximum vertex degree and the set of vertices of degree one in a graph $\mathcal{G}$…

This work is an extension of a result given by Kuttler and Sigillito (SIAM Rev $10$:$368-370$, $1968$) on a star-shaped bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let $\Omega$ be a star-shaped bounded domain in a hypersurface of revolution, having…

We consider how the geometry and topology of a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian orbifold with boundary relates to its Steklov spectrum. In two dimensions, motivated by work of A. Girouard, L. Parnovski, I. Polterovich and D. Sher in the…
