We introduce the nonlocal analogue of the classical free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in an open domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ as the (boundaries of) critical points of the fractional perimeter $\operatorname{Per}_s(\cdot,\,\Omega )$…

In this paper, we prove an extended version of the Minkowski Inequality, holding for any smooth bounded set $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$. Our proof relies on the discovery of effective monotonicity formulas holding along the…

We consider boundary Harnack inequalities for regional fractional Laplacian which are generators of censored stable-like processes on G taking \kappa(x,y)/|x-y|^{n+\alpha}dxdy, x,y\in G as the jumping measure. When G is a C^{1,\beta-1} open…

A classical pseudodifferential operator $P$ on $R^n$ satisfies the $\mu$-transmission condition relative to a smooth open subset $\Omega $, when the symbol terms have a certain twisted parity on the normal to $\partial\Omega $. As shown…

We show that, in dimensions $n\geq 3$, continuity and boundedness do not restore the Sobolev regularity conjecture of Iwaniec and Martin for weakly quasiregular mappings below the critical exponent. For every bounded domain…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be a bounded chord-arc domain, let $\mathcal L=-{\rm div} A\nabla$ be an elliptic operator in $\Omega$ associated with a matrix $A$ having Dini mean oscillation coefficients, and let $1<p\leq 2$. In…

We study the $\eta$-invariant of a Dirac operator on a manifold with boundary subject to local boundary conditions with the help of heat kernel methods. In even dimensions, we relate this invariant to $\eta$-invariants of a boundary Dirac…

The aim of this paper is twofold: First, we characterize an essentially optimal class of boundary operators $\Theta$ which give rise to self-adjoint Laplacians $-\Delta_{\Theta, \Omega}$ in $L^2(\Omega; d^n x)$ with (nonlocal and local)…

We study local regularity properties for solutions of linear, non-uniformly elliptic equations. Assuming certain integrability conditions on the coefficient field, we prove local boundedness and Harnack inequality. The assumed integrability…

Let $\alpha\in(0,1)$, $\Omega$ be a bounded open domain in $R^N$ ($N\ge 2$) with $C^2$ boundary $\partial\Omega$ and $\omega$ be the Hausdorff measure on $\partial\Omega$. We denote by $\frac{\partial^\alpha \omega}{\partial…

We study some geometric and potential theoretic properties of nodal domains of solutions to certain uniformly elliptic equations. In particular, we establish corkscrew conditions, Carleson type estimates and boundary Harnack inequalities on…

The classical Poincar\'e estimate establishes closedness of the range of the gradient in unweighted $L^2(\Omega)$-spaces as long as $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ is contained in a slab, that is, $\Omega$ is bounded in one direction. Here,…

We investigate the dependence of optimal constants in Poincar\'e- Sobolev inequalities of planar domains on the region where the Dirichlet condition is imposed. More precisely, we look for the best Dirichlet regions, among closed and…

The classical Poincar\'e inequality establishes that for any bounded regular domain $\Omega\subset \R^N$ there exists a constant $C=C(\Omega)>0$ such that $$ \int_{\Omega} |u|^2\, dx \leq C \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2\, dx \ \ \forall u \in…

We study two Heisenberg spin-1/2 chains coupled by a frustrating ``zigzag'' interaction. We are particularly interested in the regime of weak interchain coupling, which is difficult to analyse by either numerical or analytical methods.…

In this paper we obtain a Harnack type inequality for solutions to elliptic equations in divergence form with non-standard $p(x)-$type growth. A model equation is the inhomogeneous $p(x)-$laplacian. Namely, \[…

We study certain inequalities and a related result on weighted Sobolev spaces on bounded John domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Namely, we prove the existence of a right inverse for the divergence operator, along with the corresponding a priori…

We study the bound states of a quantum mechanical system consisting of a simple harmonic oscillator with an inverse square interaction, whose interaction strength is governed by a constant $\alpha$. The singular form of this potential has…

We derive a sufficient condition on a bounded pseudoconvex domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^2$ with smooth boundary such that $-(-\rho)^\eta$ is plurisubharmonic on $\Omega$ for $\eta>0$ arbitrarily close to $1$ (the supremum of $\eta$ is…
