We consider the dependence of non-zero Steklov eigenvalues on smooth perturbations of the domain boundary. We prove that these eigenvalues are generically simple under such boundary perturbations. This result complements our previous work…
I'm sorry that there is a gap in this paper.
Using expander graphs, we construct a sequence of smooth compact surfaces with boundary of perimeter N, and with the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue uniformly bounded away from zero. This answers a question which was raised in [9]. The…
For a compact, connected, orientable Riemannian manifold with $b$ boundary components, we obtain geometric lower bounds for the low Steklov eigenvalues, namely $\sigma_k$, $1\le k\le b-1$. Our results complement earlier results, which apply…
Let $G$ be a graph of genus $g$ with boundary $\delta\Omega$. For $g=0$, Lin and Zhao [J. Lond. Math. Soc. 112 (2025), Paper No. e70238] proved an upper bound for the first (non-trivial) Steklov eigenvalue of $(G, \delta\Omega )$, and they…
We prove that every plane passing through the origin divides an embedded compact free boundary minimal surface of the euclidean $3$-ball in exactly two connected surfaces. We also show that if a region in the ball has mean convex boundary…
We prove the existence of embedded non planar free boundary minimal disks into rotationally symmetric ellipsoids of $\mathbb{R}^3$. The construction relies on the optimization of combinations of first and second Steklov eigenvalues…
We prove that among all doubly connected domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form $B_1\backslash \overline{B_2}$, where $B_1$ and $B_2$ are open balls of fixed radii such that $\overline{B_2}\subset B_1$, the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue…
In this paper, we study the first eigenvalue of the Laplace--Beltrami operator on the Lawson minimal surfaces $\xi_{m,k}$ embedded in the unit three-sphere $\mathbb{S}^3$. Motivated by Yau's conjecture on the first eigenvalue of closed…
The Steklov eigenvalue problem was introduced over a century ago, and its discrete form attracted interest recently. Let $D$ and $\delta \Omega$ be the maximum vertex degree and the set of vertices of degree one in a graph $\mathcal{G}$…
We construct free boundary minimal surfaces (FBMS) embedded in the unit ball in the Euclidean three-space which are compact, lie arbitrarily close to the boundary unit sphere, are of genus zero, and their boundary has an arbitrarily large…
We prove the existence of metrics maximizing the first eigenvalue normalized by area on closed, non-orientable surfaces assuming two spectral gap conditions. These spectral gap conditions are proved by the authors in \cite{MS3}.
We prove that the Almgren-Pitts 6-width of the unit 3-ball is less than $2\pi$. We also prove that there exists a free boundary minimal surface in the unit 3-ball that has genus at most 1, index at most 5, area less than $2\pi$, and is not…
Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We obtain the upper bound of the harmonic mean of the first $m$ nonzero Neumann eigenvalues and Steklov eigenvalues involving the conformal volume and relative…
In this article, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for the harmonic mean of the first $(n-1)$ nonzero Steklov eigenvalues on bounded domains in $n$-dimensional Hyperbolic space. Our approach to prove this result also gives a similar…
Let $M_g$ be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we show that for any $\epsilon>0$, as genus $g$ goes to infinity, a generic surface $X\in M_g$ satisfies that the first…
We prove that compact 3-manifolds $M$ of constant curvature +1 with boundary a minimal surface are locally naturally parametrized by the conformal class of the boundary metric $\gamma$ in the Teichmuller space of $\partial M$, when…
In this work, we consider $M=(\mathbb{B}^3_r,\bar{g})$ as the Euclidean three-ball with radius $r$ equipped with the metric $\bar{g}=e^{2h}\left\langle , \right\rangle$ conformal to the Euclidean metric. We show that if a free boundary CMC…
We obtain sharp upper bounds for the first two nonzero Steklov eigenvalues among bounded domains in Euclidean spaces of dimension $d \geq 7$ under a natural normalization involving volume and boundary measure. These bounds are derived from…
We show that an embedded minimal annulus $\Sigma^2 \subset B^3$ which intersects $\partial B^3$ orthogonally and is invariant under reflection through the coordinate planes is the critical catenoid. The proof uses nodal domain arguments and…
