A Laplacian eigenfunction on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold provides a natural partition into Neumann domains (a.k.a. a Morse--Smale complex). This partition is generated by gradient flow lines of the eigenfunction, which bound the…

We study the growth of Laplacian eigenfunctions $ -\Delta \phi_k = \lambda_k \phi_k$ on compact manifolds $(M,g)$. H\"ormander proved sharp polynomial bounds on $\| \phi_k\|_{L^{\infty}}$ which are attained on the sphere. On a `generic'…

The set $S_{i,n}=\{0,1,2,\ldots,n-1,n\}\setminus\{i\}$, $1\leqslant i\leqslant n$ is called Laplacian realizable if there exists an undirected simple graph whose Laplacian spectrum is $S_{i,n}$. The existence of such graphs was established…
