We study the effects of perturbing the boundary of a rectangle on the nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Namely, for a rectangle of a given aspect ratio $N$, we identify the first Dirichlet mode to feature a crossing in its…

We study the spectrum of the Laplacian on the hemisphere with Robin boundary conditions. It is found that the eigenvalues fall into small clusters around the Neumann spectrum, and satisfy a Szeg\H{o} type limit theorem. Sharp upper and…
