The real homology of a compact, n-dimensional Riemannian manifold M is naturally endowed with the stable norm. The stable norm of a homology class is the minimal Riemannian volume of its representatives. If M is orientable the stable norm…
For a large class of complete, non-compact Riemannian manifolds, $(M,g)$, with boundary, we prove high energy resolvent estimates in the case where there is one trapped hyperbolic geodesic. As an application, we have the following local…
We consider a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^n ,g)$ of dimension $n\geq 3$ and study positive solutions of the equation $-\Delta_g u + \lambda u = \lambda u^q$, with $\lambda >0$, $q>1$. If $M$ supports a proper isoparametric function with…
In this paper, a nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with an attractive (focusing) delta potential and a repulsive (defocusing) double power nonlinearity in one spatial dimension is considered. It is shown, via explicit construction, that both…

In this short note we treat a 1+1-dimensional system of changing type. On different spatial domains the system is of hyperbolic and elliptic type, that is, formally, $\partial_t^2 u_n-\partial_x^2 u_n = \partial_t f$ and $u_n-\partial_x^2…
