We consider the principal eigenvalue problem for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the upper half of a topological torus under the Dirichlet boundary condition. We present a construction of the upper half of a topological torus that admits…

We prove the existence of a family of compact subdomains $\Omega$ of the flat cylinder $\mathbb{R}^N\times \mathbb{R}/2\pi\mathbb{Z}$ for which the Neumann eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on $\Omega$ admits eigenfunctions with constant…

We give an alternative proof of the Benedicks-Carleson theorem on the existence of strange attractors in H\'enon-like families in the plane. To bypass a huge inductive argument, we introduce an induction-free explicit definition of…

Let $D\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a bounded convex domain and $F:D\rightarrow D$ a $1$-Lipschitz mapping with respect to the Hilbert metric $d$ on $D$ satisfying condition $d(sx+(1-s)y,sz+(1-s)w)\leq \max \{d(x,z),d(y,w) \}$. We show that if…

Given a convex domain and its convex sub-domain we prove a variant of domain monotonicity for the Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian. As an application of our method we also obtain an upper bound for Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian…

We prove Polterovich's conjecture concerning the growth of the number of nodal domains for eigenfunctions on a unit square domain, under the assumption that the eigenfunctions do not have any singular points.

We provide a-priori $L^\infty$ bounds for positive solutions to a class of subcritical elliptic problems in bounded $C^2$ domains. Our arguments rely on the moving planes method applied on the Kelvin transform of solutions. We prove that…

This paper has two main goals. First, we are concerned with the classification of self-adjoint extensions of the Laplacian $-\Delta\big|_{C^\infty_0(\Omega)}$ in $L^2(\Omega; d^n x)$. Here, the domain $\Omega$ belongs to a subclass of…

We prove the existence of a smooth family of non-compact domains $Omega_s \subset R^{n+1}$ bifurcating from the straight cylinder $B^n \times R$ for which the first eigenfunction of the Laplacian with 0 Dirichlet boundary condition also has…

The eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on bounded, planar, convex domains with mixed boundary conditions is considered, where a Dirichlet boundary condition is imposed on a part of the boundary and a Neumann boundary condition on its…

In this paper we characterize surjective isometries on certain classes of non-commutative spaces associated with semi-finite von Neumann algebras: the Lorentz spaces $L^{w,1}$, as well as the spaces $L^1+L^\infty$ and $L^1\cap L^\infty$.…

In this paper we derive Lieb-Thirring estimates for eigenvalues of Dirichlet Laplacians below the threshold of the essential spectrum on asymptotically Archimedean spiral-shaped regions.

The heat trace of a planar polygon contains corner terms depending only on the opening angles, while the heat trace of a smooth planar domain contains curvature terms along the boundary. We show that, for curvilinear polygons, these two…

We derive novel low-temperature asymptotics for the spectrum of the infinitesimal generator of the overdamped Langevin dynamics. The novelty is that this operator is endowed with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions at the boundary of a domain…

We explore the Steklov eigenvalue problem on convex polygons, focusing mainly on the inverse Steklov problem. Our primary finding reveals that, for almost all convex polygonal domains, there exist at most finitely many non-congruent domains…

Exceptional points at which eigenvalues and eigenvectors of non-Hermitian matrices coalesce are ubiquitous in the description of a wide range of platforms from photonic or mechanical metamaterials to open quantum systems. Here, we introduce…

It is shown that the infinite dimensional critical surface of general euclidean lattice actions in a generic four-dimensional scalar field theory with $\Phi^4$ interactions has a domain of special multicritical points where higher…

We present a result on existence of some kind of peak functions for $\C$-convex domains and for the symmetrized polydisc. Then we apply the latter result to show the equivariance of the set of peak points for $A(D)$ under proper holomorphic…

Extending a classical integral representation of Dirichlet L-functions associated to a non trivial primitive character we define associated functions B(y,z) which are eigenfunction of a Hermitian operator H. The eigenvalues are the…

We study when the Picard group of smooth surfaces of degree $d\geq 5$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ acquires extra classes. In particular we show that the so called exceptional components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus are not Zariski dense. This…
