Let $M$ be a connected, noncompact, complete Riemannian manifold, consider the operator $L=\DD +\nn V$ for some $V\in C^2(M)$ with $\exp[V]$ integrable w.r.t. the Riemannian volume element. This paper studies the existence of the spectral…

Let $\Gamma < G := \operatorname{SO}(d+1, 1)$ for $d \geq 1$ be a Zariski dense, geometrically finite, discrete subgroup with critical exponent strictly greater than $d/2$. We show that $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ admits a strong spectral…

We introduce a permutation model for random degree $n$ covers $X_{n}$ of a non-elementary convex-cocompact hyperbolic surface $X=\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}$. Let $\delta$ be the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set of $\Gamma$. We say that…

We study the spectral geometric properties of the scalar Laplace-Beltrami operator associated to the Weil-Petersson metric $g_{\mathrm{WP}}$ on $\mathcal M_\gamma$, the Riemann moduli space of surfaces of genus $\gamma > 1$. This space has…

We compute the Laplacian spectra of singular area-minimising hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space with prescribed asymptotic data. We also obtain similar results in higher codimension, and explore related extremal properties of the bottom…

We consider a non-compact Riemannian periodic manifold such that the corresponding Laplacian has a spectral gap. By continuously perturbing the periodic metric locally we can prove the existence of eigenvalues in a gap. A lower bound on the…

The fundamental gap is the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator (and the Laplacian, in particular). For horoconvex domains in hyperbolic space, Nguyen, Stancu and Wei conjectured that it is…

We describe a method for constraining Laplacian and Dirac spectra of two dimensional compact orientable hyperbolic spin manifolds and orbifolds. The key ingredient is an infinite family of identities satisfied by the spectra. These spectral…
