We study the area ranges where the two possible isoperimetric domains on the infinite cylinder $\mathbb{S}^{1}\times \R$, namely, geodesic disks and cylindrical strips of the form $\mathbb{S}^1\times [0,h]$, satisfy P\'{o}lya's conjecture.…

Lower bounds estimates are proved for the first eigenvalue for the Dirichlet Laplacian on arbitrary triangles using various symmetrization techniques. These results can viewed as a generalization of P\'olya's isoperimetric bounds. It is…

Let $\Omega$ be some domain in the hyperbolic space $\Hn$ (with $n\ge 2$) and $S_1$ the geodesic ball that has the same first Dirichlet eigenvalue as $\Omega$. We prove the Payne-P\'olya-Weinberger conjecture for $\Hn$, i.e., that the…

Let $K$ be a p.c.f. self-similar set equipped with a strongly recurrent Dirichlet form. Under a homogeneity assumption, for an open set $\Omega\subset K$ whose boundary $\partial \Omega$ is a graph-directed self-similar set, we prove that…

In this paper, we prove the Generalized P\'{o}lya conjecture for the Dirichlet eigenvalues. In other words, we show that $\lambda_k(\alpha) \ge \frac{(2\pi)^{\alpha} k^{\alpha/n}}{\big(\omega_n \cdot {vol}(\Omega)\big)^{\alpha/n}}, \quad\,…
