On a convex bounded Euclidean domain, the ground state for the Laplacian with Neumann boundary conditions is a constant, while the Dirichlet ground state is log-concave. The Robin eigenvalue problem can be considered as interpolating…
We consider the Robin Laplacian in the domains $\Omega$ and $\Omega^\varepsilon$, $\varepsilon >0$, with sharp and blunted cusps, respectively. Assuming that the Robin coefficient $a$ is large enough, the spectrum of the problem in $\Omega$…

In this note we present upper bounds for the variational eigenvalues of the $p$-Laplacian on smooth domains of complete $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds and Neumann boundary conditions, and on compact (boundaryless) Riemannian…
We consider the nonlinear Stefan problem $$ \left \{ \begin{array} {ll} -d \Delta u=a u-b u^2 \;\; & \mbox{for } x \in \Omega (t), \; t>0, \\ u=0 \mbox{ and } u_t=\mu|\nabla_x u |^2 \;\;&\mbox{for } x \in \partial\Omega (t), \; t>0, \\…
Let \Omega and \tilde{\Omega} be uniformly convex domains in \mathbb{R}^n with smooth boundary. We show that there exists a diffeomorphism f: \Omega \to \tilde{\Omega} such that the graph \Sigma = \{(x,f(x)): x \in \Omega\} is a minimal…
We prove the sharp lower bound of the first Neumann eigenvalue for bounded convex planar domain in term of its diameter and width.
We introduce an analogue of Payne's nodal line conjecture, which asserts that the nodal (zero) set of any eigenfunction associated with the second eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded planar domain should reach the boundary of…
In this paper, we are interested in the analysis of a well-known free boundary/shape optimization problem motivated by some issues arising in population dynamics. The question is to determine optimal spatial arrangements of favorable and…
Let $\omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded domain with Lipschitz boundary. For $\varepsilon>0$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$ consider the infinite cone $\Omega_{\varepsilon}:=\big\{(x_1,x')\in (0,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^n: x'\in\varepsilon…
We examine the regularity of the extremal solution of the nonlinear eigenvalue problem $\Delta^2 u = \lambda f(u)$ on a general bounded domain $\Omega$ in $ \IR^N$, with the Navier boundary condition $ u=\Delta u =0 $ on $ \pOm$. Here $…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$. Let $1\leq q_{0}\leq (n-1)$. We show that if $q_{0}$--sums of eigenvalues of the Levi form are comparable, then if the Diederich--Forn\ae ss index of $\Omega$ is $1$,…
We consider a nonlinear eigenvalue problem under Robin boundary conditions in a domain with (possibly noncompact) smooth boundary. The problem involves a weighted p-Laplacian operator and subcritical nonlinearities satisfying…
We deal with existence and uniqueness of nonnegative solutions to \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} -\Delta u = f(x) \text{ in }\Omega, \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} + \lambda(x) u = \frac{g(x)}{u^\eta} \text{ on }…
We consider a Laplace eigenfunction $\varphi_\lambda$ on a smooth closed Riemannian manifold, that is, satisfying $-\Delta \varphi_\lambda = \lambda \varphi_\lambda$. We introduce several observations about the geometry of its vanishing…
Wang and Ye conjectured in [22]: Let $\Omega$ be a regular, bounded and convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. There exists a finite constant $C({\Omega})>0$ such that \[ \int_{\Omega}e^{\frac{4\pi u^{2}}{H_{d}(u)}}dxdy\le C(\Omega),\;\;\forall…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, smooth domain. Supposing that $\alpha(p) + \beta(p) = p$, $\forall\, p \in \left(\frac{N}{s},\infty\right)$ and $\displaystyle\lim_{p \to \infty} \alpha(p)/{p} = \theta \in (0,1)$, we consider two systems for the…
In this paper we prove an optimal upper bound for the first eigenvalue of a Robin-Neumann boundary value problem for the p-Laplacian operator in domains with convex holes. An analogous estimate is obtained for the corresponding torsional…
