We first define the trace on a domain $\Omega$ which is definable in an o-minimal structure. We then show that every function $u\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ vanishing on the boundary in the trace sense satisfies Poincar\'e inequality. We finally…

We provide a complete characterization of closed sets with empty interior and positive reach in $\mathbb{R}^2$. As a consequence, we characterize open bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$ whose high ridge and cut locus agree, and hence $C^1$…

We show that for every $n \geq 2$ and $D > 0$ there exist a convex domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb H^n$ with diameter $D$ and a convex potential $V$ on $\Omega$ such that the fundamental gap of the operator $-\Delta+V$ is strictly smaller…

Let $f$ be a function on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and $\delta$ be a positive function on $\Omega$ such that $B(x,\delta(x))\subseteq \Omega$. Let $\sigma(f)(x)$ be the average of $f$ over the ball $B(x,\delta(x))$.…

A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set $\Omega$ in space, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials. If $\Omega$ has…

Inspired by a recent result of Funano's, we provide a sharp quantitative comparison result between the first nontrivial eigenvalues of the Neumann Laplacian on bounded convex domains $\Omega_{1} \subset \Omega_{2}$ in any dimension $d$…

We construct a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ with boundary of class $\mathcal{C}^{1,1}$, such that $\overline{\Omega}$ has a Stein neighborhood basis, but is not $s$-H-convex for any real number $s\geq{1}$.

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\ge 2,$ be a bounded domain with an outward power-like peak which is assumed not too sharp in a suitable sense. We consider the Laplacian $u\mapsto -\Delta u$ in $\Omega$ with the Robin boundary condition…

Refining the sharp upper bounds $\mu_{k,d}^* $ obtained by Kr\"oger (1999) for the $k$-th Neumann eigenvalue of a convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we prove the following inequalities: for any $k\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a…

For $N\geq 4$, we let $\Omega$ to be a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$, $\Gamma$ a smooth closed submanifold of $\Omega$ of dimension $k$ with $1\leq k \leq N-2$ and $h$ a continuous function defined on $\Omega$. We denote by…

We show that if a bounded domain $\Omega$ is exhausted by a bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain $D$ with $C^2$ boundary, then $\Omega$ is holomorphically equivalent to $D$ or the unit ball, and show that a bounded domain has to be…

We proceed with the investigation of the problem $(P_\lambda): $ $-\Delta u = \lambda b(x)|u|^{q-2}u +a(x)|u|^{p-2}u \ \mbox{ in } \Omega, \ \ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \mathbf{n}} = 0 \ \mbox{ on } \partial \Omega$, where $\Omega$ is a…

The classical Minkowski inequality implies that the volume of a bounded convex domain is controlled from above by the integral of the mean curvature of its boundary. In this note, we establish an analogous inequality without the convexity…

It is known that for $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ an unbounded convex domain and $H>0$, there exists a graph $G\subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ of constant mean curvature $H$ over $\Omega $ with $\partial G=$ $\partial \Omega $ if and only if…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, convex, centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha…

We prove a vertex-isoperimetric inequality for [n]^(r), the set of all r-element subsets of {1,2,...,n}, where x,y \in [n]^(r) are adjacent if |x \Delta y|=2. Namely, if \mathcal{A} \subset [n]^(r) with |\mathcal{A}|=\alpha {n \choose r},…

We prove the existence of a smooth family of non-compact domains $Omega_s \subset R^{n+1}$ bifurcating from the straight cylinder $B^n \times R$ for which the first eigenfunction of the Laplacian with 0 Dirichlet boundary condition also has…

Given a mean-convex domain $\Omega\subset \R^n$ with boundary of class $C^{2,1}$, we provide a representation formula for a boundary integral of the type \[ \int_{\partial \Omega} f(k(x)) \, d\mathcal{H}^{n-1} \] where $k\geq 0$ is the mean…

We show that a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting partial pseudoconvex exhaustion remains partial pseudoconvex. The main ingredient of the proof is based on a new characterization of hyper-$q$-convex domains. Furthermore, we…

We prove the quantitative equivalence of two important geometrical conditions, pertaining to the regularity of a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$. These are: (i) the uniform two-sided supporting sphere condition, and (ii) the Lipschitz…
