We extend some classical inequalities between the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian to the context of mixed Steklov--Dirichlet and Steklov--Neumann eigenvalue problems. The latter one is also known as the sloshing problem,…

In this note we study the eigenvalue growth of infinite graphs with discrete spectrum. We assume that the corresponding Dirichlet forms satisfy certain Sobolev-type inequalities and that the total measure is finite. In this sense, the…

We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ - the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Under the assumption that the domain $\Omega$ is $C^2$, we prove a…

We study the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of the Laplacian in a $n$-dimensional convex domain. For domains of a fixed inner radius, estimates of Chiti imply that the ratio of the $L^2$-norm and $L^{\infty}$-norm of the eigenfunction is…

It is natural to consider continuous dependence of the $n$-th eigenvalue on $d$-dimensional ($d\geq2$) Sturm-Liouville problems after the results on $1$-dimensional case by Kong, Wu and Zettl [14]. In this paper, we find all the boundary…

First we establish a weighted Reilly formula for differential forms on a smooth compact oriented Riemannian manifold with boundary. Then we give two applications of this formula when the manifold satisfies certain geometric conditions. One…

The Steklov problem on a compact Lipschitz domain is to find harmonic functions on the interior whose outward normal derivative on the boundary is some multiple (eigenvalue) of its trace on the boundary. These eigenvalues form the Steklov…

We show that as the ratio between the first Dirichlet eigenvalues of a convex domain and of the ball with the same volume becomes large, the same must happen to the corresponding ratio of isoperimetric constants. The proof is based on the…
