The purpose of this paper is to study the eigenvalues $\{\lambda_{\mu,i} \}_i$ for the Dirichlet Hardy-Leray operator, i.e. $$ -\Delta u+\mu|x|^{-2}u=\lambda u\ \ {\rm in}\ \, \Omega,\quad\quad u=0\ \ {\rm on}\ \ \partial\Omega,$$ where…

We establish an explicit maximum principle for the Dirichlet problem associated with the $p$-Laplacian ($p>1$), where the constant depends on both $p$ and the geometry of the domain. From this result we derive two main applications. First,…

We prove the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for the variable exponent $p$-Laplacian with boundary data in $W^{1,p(x)}(\Omega)$ on a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^n$. Our main focus will be on an a.e. finite…

For the Dirichlet realization of $-d^2/dx^2-\lambda^2V$ on a bounded interval, with $V$ a positive $C^2$ potential bounded away from $0$ and $\lambda>0$ a large parameter, we prove an asymptotic law for the values $\lambda_n$ of $\lambda$…

The Laplacian $\Delta_{\mathbb{S}^{n-1}}$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ has the property that it can explicitly be expressed in terms of $\Lambda$, the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map of the unit ball, as…

In this paper we study spectral estimates of the $p$-Laplace Neumann operator in conformal regular domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^2$. This study is based on (weighted) Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequalities. The main technical tool is the…

In this paper we give an estimate on the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues of discretized elliptic boundary values problems. We first prove a simple min-max principle for selfadjoint operators on a Hilbert space. Then we show two sided…

We consider a restricted Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to a wave type operator on a Riemannian manifold with boundary. The restriction corresponds to the case where the Dirichlet traces are supported on one subset of the boundary and…

We show that a Weyl law holds for the variational spectrum of the $p$-Laplacian. More precisely, let $(\lambda_i)_{i=1}^\infty$ be the variational spectrum of $\Delta_p$ on a closed Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$ and let $N(\lambda) = \#\{i:\,…
