We study a Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenvalue problem for differential forms on a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. This problem is a natural generalization of the classical Steklov problem on functions. We derive a number of…

In this paper, we investigate the monotonicity of the first Steklov--Dirichlet eigenvalue on eccentric annuli with respect to the distance, namely $t$, between the centers of the inner and outer boundaries of an annulus. We first show the…

This work investigates upper bounds for the spectrum of the Steklov-type operator on Riemannian manifolds with boundary. We extend the Fraser-Schoen estimate for the first positive Steklov eigenvalue to higher Steklov eigenvalues, in terms…

We deepen the study of Dirichlet eigenvalues in bounded domains where a thin tube is attached to the boundary. As its section shrinks to a point, the problem is spectrally stable and we quantitatively investigate the rate of convergence of…

We establish a new lower bound for the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature and (strictly) convex boundary. Related results are also obtained under weaker geometric hypotheses.

We study the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue $\lambda_2(T,\delta\Omega)$ of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on a finite tree $T$ with leaf boundary $\delta\Omega$, under a constraint on the diameter $D$. He and Hua [Calc. Var. PDE, 2022]…

In this paper we find an upper bound for the first Steklov eigenvalue for a surface of revolution with boundary consisting of two spheres of different radii. Moreover, we prove that in some cases this boundary is sharp.

We show that metrics that maximize the k-th Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces with boundary arise from free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball. We prove several properties of the volumes of these minimal submanifolds. For free boundary…

In this note we present upper bounds for the variational eigenvalues of the Steklov $p$-Laplacian on domains of $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 2$. We show that for $1<p\leq n$ the variational eigenvalues $\sigma_{p,k}$ are bounded above in terms of…
