We compute the eigenvalues with multiplicities of the Lichnerowicz Laplacian acting on the space of complex symmetric covariant tensor fields on the complex projective space $P^n(\comp)$. The spaces of symmetric eigentensors are explicitly…
We prove upper bounds for sub-Laplacian eigenvalues independent of a pseudo-Hermitian structure on a CR manifold. These bounds are compatible with the Menikoff-Sjoestrand asymptotic law, and can be viewed as a CR version of Korevaar's…
In this paper, we get estimates on the higher eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on locally reducible Riemannian manifolds, in terms of the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator and the scalar curvature. These estimates are sharp, in…
We study an eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on a compact K\"{a}hler manifold. Considering the $k$-th eigenvalue $\lambda_{k}$ as a functional on the space of K\"{a}hler metrics with fixed volume on a compact complex manifold, we…

We solve $\square_b$ on a class of non-compact 3-dimensional strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds via a certain conformal equivalence. The idea is to make use of a related $\square_b$ operator on a compact 3-dimensional strongly pseudoconvex…

We determine accurate asymptotics for the low-lying eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian when the Robin parameter goes to $-\infty$. The two first terms in the expansion have been obtained by K. Pankrashkin in the $2D$-case and by K.…

We prove an L^2-estimate involving Ricci curvature and a harmonic 1-form on a closed oriented Riemannian 3-manifold admitting a solution of any rescaled Seiberg-Witten equations. We also give a necessary condition to be a monopole class on…
We develop a geometric invariant Littlewood-Paley theory for arbitrary tensors on a compact 2 dimensional manifold. We show that all the important features of the classical LP theory survive with estimates which depend only on very limited…
We show that for n dimensional manifolds whose the Ricci curvature is greater or equal to n-1 and for k in {1,...,n+1}, the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian is close to n if and only if the manifold contains a subset which is…

We prove new improved endpoint, $L^{p_c}$, $p_c=\tfrac{2(n+1)}{n-1}$, estimates (the "kink point") for eigenfunctions on manifolds of nonpositive curvature. We do this by using energy and dispersive estimates for the wave equation as well…
