Given a compact Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ without boundary, we estimate the Lebesgue norm of Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions when restricted to a wide variety of subsets $\Gamma$ of $M$. The sets $\Gamma$ that we consider are Borel…

We consider the discrete Laplace operator $\Delta^{(N)}$ on Erd\H{o}s--R\'{e}nyi random graphs with $N$ vertices and edge probability $p/N$. We are interested in the limiting spectral properties of $\Delta^{(N)}$ as $N\to\infty$ in the…
