If the boundary of a domain in three dimensions is smooth enough, then the decay rate of the eigenvalues of the Neumann-Poincar\'e operator is known and it is optimal. In this paper, we deal with domains with less regular boundaries and…

We find an asymptotic expression for the first eigenvalue of the biharmonic operator on a long thin rectangle. This is done by finding lower and upper bounds which become increasingly accurate with increasing length. The lower bound is…

We consider two-dimensional waveguide with a rectangular obstacle symmetric about the axis of the waveguie. We study the behaviour of the Neumann eigenvalues located below the first threshold when the sides of the obstacle approach the…

We give bounds on the first non-zero eigenvalue of the scalar Laplacian for both the Page and the Chen-LeBrun-Weber Einstein metrics. One notable feature is that these bounds are obtained without explicit knowledge of the metrics or…

Our main result is that if a generic convex domain in $\R^n$ collapses to a domain in $\R^{n-1}$, then the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Euclidean Laplacian, known as the fundamental gap, diverges. The…

We consider the buckling eigenvalue problem for a clamped plate in the annulus. We identify the first eigenvalue in dependence of the inner radius, and study the number of nodal domains of the corresponding eigenfunctions. Moreover, in…

In this paper, we prove sharp isoperimetric inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of Neumann Laplacian on bounded domains in both compact and noncompact rank-1 symmetric spaces. Our results generalize the work of Wang and Xia for bounded…

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 $\delta$…

We try to present an estimate relating the first Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of a compact bordered Riemannian surface.

We investigate symmetry properties of the first nontrivial eigenfunctions of the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$, where $s \in (0,1)$, in an $N$-dimensional ball with nonlocal Neumann boundary conditions. By means of a spectral stability…

We prove several results about the multiplicity of the first Steklov eigenvalues on compact surfaces with boundary. We improve some bounds on the multiplicity, especially for the first eigenvalue, and we prove they are sharp on some…

Let $(M,\theta)$ be a compact strictly pseudoconvex pseudohermitian manifold which is CR embedded into a complex space. In an earlier paper, Lin and the authors gave several sharp upper bounds for the first positive eigenvalue $\lambda_1$…

We find the Courant-sharp Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on some 2-rep-tile domains. In $\R^{2}$ the domains we consider are the isosceles right triangle and the rectangle with edge ratio $\sqrt{2}$ (also known as the A4 paper). In…

The eigenvalue bounds obtained earlier [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 31 (1998) 963] for smooth transformations of the form V(x) = g(x^2) + f(1/x^2) are extended to N-dimensions. In particular a simple formula is derived which bounds the…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a classical solution to a Neumann boundary problem for Hessian equations in uniformly convex domain. The methods depend upon the established of a priori derivative estimates up to second order. So we…

We obtain sharp lower bounds for the first eigenvalue of four types of eigenvalue problem defined by the bi-Laplace operator on compact manifolds with boundary and determine all the eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions of a…

We study an eigenvalue problem for the infinity-Laplacian on bounded domains. We prove the existence of the principal eigenvalue and a corresponding positive eigenfunction. The work also contains existence results when the parameter, in the…

We consider the Neumann eigenvalue problem for Laplacian on a bounded multi-connected domain contained in simply connected space forms. Under certain symmetry assumptions on the domain, we prove Szeg\"{o}-Weinberger type inequalities for…

We prove that there exists a bounded convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbf{R}^3$ of fixed volume that minimizes the first positive curl eigenvalue among all other bounded convex domains of the same volume. We show that this optimal domain…
