We introduce a class of nonlinear partial differential equations in a product space which are at the interface of Finsler and sub-Riemannian geometry. To such equations we associate a non-isotropic Minkowski gauge $\Theta$ for which we…

We describe a procedure to introduce Sobolev spaces and the semigroup generated by the fractional Dirichlet Laplacian on an arbitrary domain of $\R^d$. In particular, the well-definedness of the spaces of both non-homogeneous and…

Breaking symmetries is a popular way of speeding up the branch-and-bound method for symmetric integer programs. We study fundamental domains, which are minimal and closed symmetry breaking polyhedra. Our long-term goal is to understand the…

The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta )^a$, $a\in(0,1)$, and its generalizations to variable-coefficient $2a$-order pseudodifferential operators $P$, are studied in $L_q$-Sobolev spaces of Bessel-potential type $H^s_q$. For a bounded open set…

We obtain a criterion for the quasi-regularity of generalized (non-sectorial) Dirichlet forms, which extends the result of P.J. Fitzsimmons on the quasi-regularity of (sectorial) semi-Dirichlet forms. Given the right (Markov) process…

Let Omega be a bounded, simply connected domain with boundary of class C^{1,1} except at finitely many points S_j where the boundary is locally a corner of aperture alpha_j<=pi/2. Improving on results of Grisvard, we show that the solution…

We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ - the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Under the assumption that the domain $\Omega$ is $C^2$, we prove a…

We study the existence of positive solutions on the half-line $[0,\infty)$ for the nonlinear second order differential equation \[ \bigl(a(t)x^{\prime}\bigr)^{\prime}+b(t)F(x)=0,\quad t\geq0, \] satisfying Dirichlet type conditions, say…

Here, a natural extension of Sobolev spaces is defined for a Finsler structure $F$ and it is shown that the set of all real $C^{\infty}$ functions with compact support on a forward geodesically complete Finsler manifold $(M, F)$, is dense…

Let -\Delta denote the Dirichlet Laplace operator on a bounded open set in \mathbb{R}^d. We study the sum of the negative eigenvalues of the operator -h^2 \Delta - 1 in the semiclassical limit h \to 0+. We give a new proof that yields not…

Let $E$ be a complete Hausdorff locally convex space over $\mathbb{C}_{p},$ let $A\in\mathcal{L}(E)$ such that $(I-\lambda A)^{-1}$ is analytic on its domain. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the resolvent of…

(Revised version, January 2006. S. Gouezel pointed out that, when 1<r<2, the proof in the previous version was incomplete. In fixing this gap, we simplified the argument in Section 6. In addition, there is a new appendix, with an…

We consider the Dirichlet problem for stationary biharmonic maps $u$ from a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ ($n\ge 5$) to a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold $N\subset\mathbb R^l$ without boundary. For any smooth…

In this paper we develop a theory for Patterson--Sullivan measures for non-Borel Anosov groups on the Furstenberg boundary. Previously, such a theory has been successfully developed for measures supported on the partial flag manifold…

In this note we study the eigenvalue growth of infinite graphs with discrete spectrum. We assume that the corresponding Dirichlet forms satisfy certain Sobolev-type inequalities and that the total measure is finite. In this sense, the…

In this paper we study the Dirichlet problem of translating mean curvature equations over domains in Riemannian manifolds with dimension $n$. Imitating the generalized solution theory of Miranda-Giusti, we define a new conformal area…
