In this paper, we prove that a closed minimal hypersurface in $\SSS$ with $\lambda_1<n$ has Morse index at least $n+4$, providing a partial answer to a conjecture of Perdomo. As a corollary, we re-obtain a partial proof of the famous Urbano…

In this paper we prove two inequalities relating the warping function to various curvature terms, for warped products isometrically immersed in Riemannian manifolds. This extends work of B. Y. Chen for the case of immersions into space…

Extremal spectral properties of Lawson tau-surfaces are investigated. The Lawson tau-surfaces form a two-parametric family of tori or Klein bottles minimally immersed in the standard unitary three-dimensional sphere. A Lawson tau-surface…

We study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the surfaces of four of the regular polyhedrons: tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron and cube. We show two types of eigenfunctions: nonsingular ones that are smooth at vertices,…

We construct many closed, embedded mean curvature self-shrinking surfaces $\Sigma_g^2\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ of high genus $g=2k$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. Each of these shrinking solitons has isometry group equal to the dihedral group on $2g$…

We show that every connected compact or bordered Riemann surface contains a Cantor set whose complement admits a complete conformal minimal immersion in $\mathbb R^3$ with bounded image. The analogous result holds for holomorphic immersions…

We prove that in a closed Riemannian manifold with dimension between $3$ and $7$, either there are minimal hypersurfaces with arbitrarily large area, or there exist uncountably many stable minimal hypersurfaces. Moreover, the latter case…

We discuss the asymptotic lower bound on the inner radius of nodal domains that arise from Laplacian eigenfunctions $ \phi_\lambda $ on a closed Riemannian manifold $ (M,g) $. First, in the real-analytic case we present an improvement of…

We consider critical points of the functionals $\Pi$ and $\Psi$ defined as the global $L^2$-norm of the second fundamental form and mean curvature vector of isometric immersions of compact Riemannian manifolds into a background Riemannian…

Consider an $L^2$-normalized Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunction $e_\lambda$ on a compact, boundary-less Riemannian manifold with $\Delta e_\lambda = -\lambda^2 e_\lambda$. We study eigenfunction triple products \[ \langle e_\lambda e_\mu, e_\nu…

Upper bounds of the first non-trivial eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the Laplace operator of a compact submanifold $M^n$ of Euclidean space $\R^{m+1}$, by means of a new technique, are obtained. Each of the upper bounds of $\lambda_1$ depends on…

Let $M\subset S^{n+1}$ be the hypersurface generated by rotating a hypersurface $M_0$ contained in the interior of the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^{n-k+1}$. More precisely, $M=\{(\sqrt{1-|m|^2}\, y, m):y\in S^k, m\in M_0\}$. We derive the…

Given a compact surface with boundary, we introduce a family of functionals on the space of its Riemannian metrics, defined via eigenvalues of a Steklov-type problem. We prove that each such functional is uniformly bounded from above, and…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold and $\{\phi_\lambda \}$ an $L^2$-normalized sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions, $-\Delta_g\phi_\lambda =\lambda^2 \phi_\lambda$. Given a smooth submanifold $H \subset M$ of codimension…

We examine semiclassical measures for Laplace eigenfunctions on compact hyperbolic $(n+1)$-manifolds. We prove their support must contain the cosphere bundle of a compact immersed totally geodesic submanifold. Our proof adapts the argument…

A compact Riemannian manifold may be immersed into Euclidean space by using high frequency Laplace eigenfunctions. We study the geometry of the manifold viewed as a metric space endowed with the distance function from the ambient Euclidean…

The Laplace-Beltrami operator on (the surface of) a triaxial ellipsoid admits a sequence of real eigenvalues diverging to plus infinity. By introducing ellipsoidal coordinates, this eigenvalue problem for a partial differential operator is…
