We show that as the ratio between the first Dirichlet eigenvalues of a convex domain and of the ball with the same volume becomes large, the same must happen to the corresponding ratio of isoperimetric constants. The proof is based on the…
A standard Hilbert-space proof of Dirichlet's principle is simplified, using an observation that a certain form of min-problem has unique solution, at a specified point. This solves Dirichlet's problem, after it is recast in the required…
We consider singular perturbed eigenvalue problem for Laplace operator in a two-dimensional domain. In the boundary we select a set depending on a character small parameter and consisting of a great number of small disjoint parts. On this…
In this paper, we study a first Dirichlet eigenfunction of the weighted $p$-Laplacian on a bounded domain in a complete weighted Riemannian manifold. By constructing gradient estimates for a first eigenfunction, we obtain some relationships…
Here we study the Dirichlet problem for first order linear and quasi-linear hyperbolic PDEs on a simply connected bounded domain of $\R^2$, where the domain has an interior outflow set and a mere inflow boundary. By means of a Lyapunov…
This paper investigates the link between the Maximum Principle and the sign of the (generalized) principal eigenvalue for elliptic operators in unbounded domains. Our approach covers the cases of Dirichlet, Neumann, and (indefinite) Robin…
In this paper, we discuss initial-boundary value problems for linear diffusion equation with multiple time-fractional derivatives. By means of the Mittag-Leffler function and the eigenfunction expansion, we reduce the problem to an integral…

We are concerned with the Dirichlet energy of mappings defined on domains in the complex plane. The motivation behind our questions, however, comes from more general energy integrals of mathematical models of Hyperelasticity. The Dirichlet…
We study the eigenvalue problem for the $p$-Laplacian on K\"ahler manifolds. Our first result is a lower bound for the first nonzero eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian on compact K\"ahler manifolds in terms of dimension, diameter, and lower…
In [LS], it is shown shown that the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian restricted to the space of invariant functions on a toric K\"ahler manifold (i.e. $\lambda_1^\mathbb{T}$, the invariant first eigenvalue) is an unbounded function of the…
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…
In this paper, we apply our minimax theory ([4], [5], [6]) with the one developed by A. Moameni in [2] to formalize a general scheme giving the multiplicity of critical points. Here is a sample of application of the scheme to a critical…
It is developed the theory of the boundary behavior of homeomorphic solutions of the Beltrami equations ${\bar{\partial}}f=\mu\,{\partial}f$ of the Sobolev class $W^{1,1}_{\rm loc}$ with respect to prime ends of domains. On this basis,…
In this work, we show the existence of an unbounded sequence of minimax eigenvalues for the logarithmic $p$-Laplacian via the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-cohomological index of Fadell and Rabinowitz. As an application of these minimax eigenvalues and…
We focus on three different convexity principles for local and nonlocal variational integrals. We prove various generalizations of them, as well as their equivalences. Some applications to nonlinear eigenvalue problems and Hardy-type…
We study the Dirichlet problem on a bounded convex domain of $\mathbb R^N$, with zero boundary data, for truncated Laplacians ${\mathcal P}_k^\pm$, with $k<N$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition (Theorem 1) in terms of the…
This paper investigates properties of complex-valued eigenvalue trajectories for the interior transmission problem parametrized by the index of refraction for homogeneous media. Our theoretical analysis for the unit disk shows that the only…
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…
In this work, we consider a mixed local and nonlocal Dirichlet problem with supercritical nonlinearity. We first establish a multiplicity result for the problem \begin{equation} Lu=|u|^{p-2}u+\mu|u|^{q-2}u~~\text{in}~~\Omega,~~~~~…
