Let $M$ be a finite volume oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ and curvature in $[-b^2,-1]$, with thick-thin decomposition $M=M(thick)\cup M(thin)$. Denote by $\lambda_k(M(thick))$ the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian on…

At each point of a Poisson point process of intensity $\lambda$ in the hyperbolic place, center a ball of bounded random radius. Consider the probability $P_r$ that from a fixed point, there is some direction in which one can reach distance…

We show that for every finite-volume hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ and every prime $p$ we have $\text{dim}\ H_1(M;\mathbf{F}_p)< 168.602\cdot\text{vol}\ M$. There are slightly stronger estimates if $p = 2$ or if $M$ is non-compact. This…

We derive sharp bounds for three types of eigenvalue problems. First, we derive an upper bound for the first $p$-Dirichlet eigenvalue on conformally compact (CC) spaces. As a consequence, we show that for a class of CC submanifolds of…

In this paper we investigate the behavior of the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on sets in $\mathbb{R}^N$ whose first eigenvalue is close to the one of the ball with the same volume. In particular in our main Theorem we prove that,…

A real hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}^2$ is said to be Reinhardt if it is invariant under the standard $\mathbb{T}^2$-action on $\mathbb{C}^2$. Its CR geometry can be described in terms of the curvature function of its ``generating curve'',…

Let $M_g$ be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we show that for any $\epsilon>0$, as genus $g$ goes to infinity, a generic surface $X\in M_g$ satisfies that the first…

We consider the problem of finding a real number lambda and a function u satisfying the PDE max{lambda -\Delta u -f,|Du|-1}=0, for all x in R^n. Here f is a convex, superlinear function. We prove that there is a unique lambda* such that the…

This paper is motivated by the maximization of the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Laplace operator with Neumann boundary conditions among domains of ${\mathbb R}^N$ with prescribed measure. We relax the problem to the class of (possibly…

Here is the simplest particular case of our main result: let $f:{\bf R}\to {\bf R}$ be a function of class $C^1$, with $\sup_{\bf R}f'>0$, such that $$\lim_{|\xi|\to +\infty}{{f(\xi)}\over {\xi}}=0\ .$$ Then, for each $\lambda>{{\pi^2}\over…

We establish an improved version of the Moser-Trudinger inequality in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^n$, $n\geq 2$. Namely, we prove the following result: for any $0 \leq \lambda < \left(\frac{n-1}n\right)^n$, then we have $$…
