The radial limits at a point ${\bf y}$ of the boundary of the domain $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^{2}$ of a bounded variational solution $f$ of Dirichlet or contact angle boundary value problems for a prescribed mean curvature equation are…
The fundamental gap of a domain is the difference between the first two eigenvalues of the Laplace operator. In a series of recent and celebrated works, it was shown that for convex domains in $\mathbb R^n$ and $\mathbb S^n$ with Dirichlet…
The Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a triangle that collapses into a line segment diverge to infinity. In this paper, to track the behavior of the eigenvalues during the collapsing process of a triangle, we establish a…
Let $\Omega$ be some domain in the hyperbolic space $\Hn$ (with $n\ge 2$) and $S_1$ the geodesic ball that has the same first Dirichlet eigenvalue as $\Omega$. We prove the Payne-P\'olya-Weinberger conjecture for $\Hn$, i.e., that the…
We prove a boundedness criterion for a class of dyadic multilinear forms acting on two-dimensional functions. Their structure is more general than the one of classical multilinear Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund operators as several functions can now…
We prove a lower bound on the eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, $k\in\mathbb{N}$, of the Dirichlet Laplacian of a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ of volume $V$: $$ \lambda_k \geq C_n\bigg( \delta\frac{k}{V}\bigg)^{2/n} $$ where $\delta$…
The main result of this paper is an instance of the conjecture made by Gouvea and Mazur (Math. Res. Lett., 1995) which asserts that for certain values of r the space of r-overconvergent p-adic modular forms of tame level N and weight k…
We prove that the gradient of any bounded subharmonic function is upper semi-continuous, provided that its super-level sets can be touched from the exterior by uniform $C^{1,\text{Dini}}$ domains at every point. This idea extends to a class…
The central purpose of the present paper is to study boundary behavior of squeezing functions on bounded domains. We prove that the squeezing function of a strongly pseudoconvex domain tends to 1 near the boundary. In fact, such an estimate…
In a domain of the Euclidean space, we estimate from below the distance to the boundary of global maximum points of solutions of elliptic and parabolic equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary values. As reference cases, we first…
In 1947, P\'olya proved that if $n=3,4$ the regular polygon $P_n$ minimizes the principal frequency of an n-gon with given area $\alpha>0$ and suggested that the same holds when $n \ge 5$. In $1951,$ P\'olya & Szeg\"o discussed the…
We prove regularity of solutions of the $\bar\partial$-problem in the H\"older-Zygmund spaces of bounded, strongly $\mathbf C$-linearly convex domains of class $C^{1,1}$. The proofs rely on a new, analytic characterization of said domains…
We show optimal triangulations for piecewise linear (PWL) approximations of indefinite quadratic functions over the plane. Optimal triangulations have minimum triangle density while allowing a PWL approximation that fulfills a prescribed…
We show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in n-dimensional Euclidean space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron (finite or infinite) if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point,…
We study the counting function of Steklov eigenvalues on compact manifolds with boundary and obtain its upper bound involving the leading term of Weyl's law. Our estimate can be viewed as a weakened version of P\'{o}lya's Conjecture in the…
In convex bounded domains in R^n with n >= 3, we establish interior pointwise upper bounds for the Dirichlet Green's function of elliptic operators in the unit ball B(0,1) in R^n, n >= 3, whose principal part is the Laplacian and which…
We consider the magnetic Dirichlet Laplacian with constant magnetic field on domains of finite measure. First, in the case of a disk, we prove that the eigenvalue branches with respect to the field strength behave asymptotically linear with…
Let $\Omega$ be an open set in Euclidean space $\R^m,\, m=2,3,...$, and let $v_{\Omega}$ denote the torsion function for $\Omega$. It is known that $v_{\Omega}$ is bounded if and only if the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian…
The purpose of this article is twofold. First, we prove that the squeezing function approaches 1 near strongly pseudoconvex boundary points of bounded domains in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$. Second, we show that the squeezing function approaches 1…
We prove a general Mosco convergence theorem for bounded Euclidean domains satisfying a set of mild geometric hypotheses. For bounded domains, this notion implies norm-resolvent convergence for the Dirichlet Laplacian which in turn ensures…
