We study the nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the standard d-dimensional flat torus. The question we address is: Can a fixed hypersurface lie on the nodal sets of eigenfunctions with arbitrarily large eigenvalue? In…
In this paper, we present an approach to the fractional Dunkl Laplacian in a framework emerging from certain reflection symmetries in Euclidean spaces. Our main result is pointwise formulas, Bochner subordination, and an extension problem…
This paper concerns the concentration of Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact two-dimensional Riemannian manifold with strictly geodesically concave boundary. We link three inequalities which bound the concentration in…
This is a survey on eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on Riemannian manifolds (mainly compact and without boundary). We discuss both local results obtained by analyzing eigenfunctions on small balls, and global results obtained by wave…
Motivated by the problem of the small-scale sign distribution of Laplace eigenfunctions, we introduce a strong notion of sign-balance for (eigen)functions, and prove that random eigenfunctions are sign-balanced above a precisely determined…
For the Laplacian in spherical and hyperbolic spaces, Robin eigenvalues in two dimensions and Dirichlet eigenvalues in higher dimensions are shown to satisfy scaling inequalities analogous to the standard scale invariance of the Euclidean…
In this paper we present examples of nondivergence form second order elliptic operators with continuous coefficients such that $L$ has an irregular boundary point that is regular for the Laplacian. Also for any eigenvalue spread <1 of the…
In this paper, we explore the high-frequency properties of eigenfunctions of point perturbations of the Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold. These systems cannot be obtained as the quantization of a classical Hamiltonian, as the…
We study the defect (or "signed area") distribution of toral Laplace eigenfunctions restricted to shrinking balls of radius above the Planck scale, in either random Gaussian scenario ("Arithmetic Random Waves"), or deterministic…
This paper is concerned with the location of nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin tubular neighbourhoods of hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. In the limit when the radius of the…
We study the limiting distribution of the rational points under a horizontal translation along a sequence of expanding closed horocycles on the modular surface. Using spectral methods we confirm equidistribution of these sample points for…
Taking advantage from the so-called "Lemma on small eigenvalues" by Colin de Verdi\`ere, we study ramification for multiple eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian in bounded perforated domains. The asymptotic behavior of multiple…
We study the limiting behavior of eigenfunctions/eigenvalues of the Laplacian of a family of Riemannian metrics that degenerates on a hypersurface. Our results generalize earlier work concerning the degeneration of hyperbolic surfaces.
The main result of this paper is a bound on the distance between the distribution of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold and the Gaussian distribution. If $X$ is a random point on a manifold $M$ and $f$ is an…
A self-focal point of a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is a point $p$ so that every geodesic starting from $p$ returns to $p$ at some positive time. It is called a pole if all geodesics through $p$ are closed, and a non-polar self-focal point…
We study the fine scale $L^2$-mass distribution of toral Laplace eigenfunctions with respect to random position, in 2 and 3 dimensions. In 2d, under certain flatness assumptions on the Fourier coefficients and generic restrictions on energy…
We discuss properties of $L^2$-eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators and elliptic partial differential operators. The focus is set on unique continuation principles and equidistribution properties. We review recent results and announce…
We show explicit formulas for the evaluation of (possibly higher-order) fractional Laplacians of some functions supported on ellipsoids. In particular, we derive the explicit expression of the torsion function and give examples of…
This paper concerns the behavior of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the round sphere's Laplacian acting on the space of sections of a real line bundle which is defined on the complement of an even numbers of points in $S^2$. Of…
The spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on conical layers is analysed through two aspects: the infiniteness of the discrete eigenvalues and their expansions in the small aperture limit. On the one hand, we prove that, for any aperture, the…
