We study the $p$-independence of spectra of Laplace operators on graphs arising from regular Dirichlet forms on discrete spaces. Here, a sufficient criterion is given solely by a uniform subexponential growth condition. Moreover, under a…

Analyzing nodal domains is a way to discern the structure of eigenvectors of operators on a graph. We give a new definition extending the concept of nodal domains to arbitrary signed graphs, and therefore to arbitrary symmetric matrices. We…

We prove the Pleijel theorem in non-collapsed RCD spaces, providing an asymptotic upper bound on the number of nodal domains of Laplacian eigenfunctions. As a consequence, we obtain that the Courant nodal domain theorem holds except at most…

Our main goal in the present paper is to expand the known class of open manifolds over which the $L^2$-spectrum of a general Dirac operator and its square is maximal. To achieve this, we first find sufficient conditions on the manifold so…
