On any compact manifold of dimension $n\geq3$ with boundary, we prescibe any finite part of the Steklov spectrum whithin a given conformal class. In particular, we prescribe the multiplicity of the first eigenvalues. On a compact surface…

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 metrics that maximize the k-th Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces with boundary arise from free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball. We prove several properties of the volumes of these minimal submanifolds. For free boundary…

The Euclidean mixed isoperimetric-isodiametric inequality states that the round ball maximizes the volume under constraint on the product between boundary area and radius. The goal of the paper is to investigate such mixed…

Let $(M^n,g)$ be a complete simply connected $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with curvature bounds $\operatorname{Sect}_g\leq \kappa$ for $\kappa\leq 0$ and $\operatorname{Ric}_g\geq(n-1)Kg$ for $K\leq 0$. We prove that for any bounded…

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…
