We exploit the connection between quantum dot Dirac operators and $\overline\partial$-Robin Laplacians. First, we find a graphical relation between their smallest positive eigenvalues, which allows us to deduce a recipe for translating…

We prove a lower bound on the first eigenvalue of the fractional Dirichlet-Laplacian of order $s$ on planar open sets, in terms of their inradius and topology. The result is optimal, in many respects. In particular, we recover a classical…
