We study the biharmonic Steklov eigenvalue problem on a compact Riemannian manifold $\Omega$ with smooth boundary. We give a computable, sharp lower bound of the first eigenvalue of this problem, which depends only on the dimension, a lower…

In this note, we investigate the Steklov spectrum of the warped product $[0,L]\times_h \Sigma$ equipped with the metric $dt^2+h(t)^2g_\Sigma$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact surface. We find sharp upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues in…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian with homogeneous Robin boundary conditions, when the (positive) Robin parameter is diverging. In this framework, since the convergence of the Robin eigenvalues to…

We show rigidity of the first conformal Steklov eigenvalue on annuli and M\"obius bands. The proof relies, among others, on uniqueness results due to Fraser--Schoen, a compactness theorem of the second named author, and recent work of the…

Bounds are obtained for the $L^p$ norm of the torsion function $v_{\Omega}$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1,\, v\in H_0^1(\Omega),$ in terms of the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega$ and the principal eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the…
