We consider the problem of minimising the $k$th eigenvalue, $k \geq 2$, of the ($p$-)Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions with respect to all domains in $\mathbb{R}^N$ of given volume $M$. When $k=2$, we prove that the second eigenvalue…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian $3$-manifold with sectional curvatures between $0$ and $1$. A minimal $2$-sphere immersed in $M$ has area at least $4\pi$. If an embedded minimal sphere has area $4\pi$, then $M$ is isometric to the unit…

The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane. On hyperbolic surfaces, the isoperimetric problem differs for every given area. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile with 120-degree angles is isoperimetric for its…
