We find the Courant-sharp Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on some 2-rep-tile domains. In $\R^{2}$ the domains we consider are the isosceles right triangle and the rectangle with edge ratio $\sqrt{2}$ (also known as the A4 paper). In…

We study the minimizer u of a convex functional in the plane which is not G\^ateaux-differentiable. Namely, we show that the set of critical points of any C^1-smooth minimizer can not have isolated points. Also, by means of some appropriate…
