We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the second nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian on $S^m$. For $S^{2}$, the second nonzero eigenvalue becomes maximal as the surface degenerates to two disjoint spheres, by a result of…

The sum of the first $n \geq 1$ eigenvalues of the Laplacian is shown to be maximal among simplexes for the regular simplex (the regular tetrahedron, in three dimensions), maximal among parallelepipeds for the hypercube, and maximal among…

We study the local Szeg\"o-Weinberger profile in a geodesic ball $B_g(y_0,r_0)$ centered at a point $y_0$ in a Riemannian manifold $(\M,g)$. This profile is obtained by maximizing the first nontrivial Neumann eigenvalue $\mu_2$ of the…
