We consider the index problem of certain boundary groupoids of the form $\mathcal{G} = M _0 \times M _0 \cup \mathbb{R}^q \times M _1 \times M _1$. Since it has been shown that for the case that $q \geq 3$ is odd, $K _0 (C^* (\mathcal{G}))…

In this paper we study Steklov eigenvalues for the Lam\'e operator which arise in the theory of linear elasticity. In this eigenproblem the spectral parameter appears in a Robin boundary condition, linking the traction and the displacement.…
I present a partly pedagogic discussion of the Gel'fand-Yaglom formula for the functional determinant of a one-dimensional, second order difference operator, in the simplest settings. The formula is a textbook one in discrete…

Motivated by Fredholm theory, we develop a framework to establish the convergence of spectral methods for operator equations $\mathcal L u = f$. The framework posits the existence of a left-Fredholm regulator for $\mathcal L$ and the…
In this paper we study the existence of solutions to the following generalized nonlinear two-parameter problem \begin{equation*} a(u, v) \; =\; \lambda\, b(u, m) + \mu\, m(u, v) + \varepsilon\, F(u, v), \end{equation*} for a triple $(a, b,…
In 2013, Henn proposed a special basis for a certain class of master integrals, which are expressible in terms of iterated integrals. In this basis, the master integrals obey a differential equation, where the right hand side is…
For a second-order strongly elliptic differential operator on an exterior domain in R^n it is known from works of Birman and Solomiak that a change of the boundary condition from the Dirichlet condition to an elliptic Neumann or Robin…
