Let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$. If we fix a metric $h$ on $E$, we get a Laplace operator $\Delta$ acting upon smooth sections of $E$ over $X$. Using the zeta function of $\Delta$, one defines its…

We establish the asymptotic behaviour of the least energy solutions of the following nonlocal Neumann problem: \begin{align*} \left\{\begin{array}{l l} { d(-\Delta)^{s}u+ u= \abs{u}^{p-1}u } \text{ in $\Omega,$ } { \mathcal{N}_{s}u=0 }…

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…

It is well known that there is an absolute constant $\mathfrak{C}>0$ such that if the Laplace transform $G(s)=\int_{0}^{\infty}\rho(x)e^{-s x}\:\mathrm{d}x$ of a bounded function $\rho$ has analytic continuation through every point of the…

Let $\mathbb{M}$ denote a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature $K_{\mathbb{M}} \leq k$ and Ricci curvature $\text{Ric}_{\mathbb{M}} \geq (n-1)K$, where $k,K \in \mathbb{R}$. Then for a bounded domain…
