We study perturbations of the eigenvalue problem for the negative Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential and Robin boundary condition. First we consider the case of a sublinear perturbation and then of a superlinear…
We prove the existence of an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{S}^2$ for which the first positive eigenvalue of the Laplacian with Neumann boundary condition exceeds that of the geodesic disk having the same area. This example holds for large…
We show that the spectrum of a Schr\"odinger eigenvalue problem posed on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ with non-negative potential can be approached by that of Robin eigenvalue problems with constant positive boundary parameter posed on…
We consider Laplace's equation in a periodically perforated domain with Robin boundary conditions on the holes, where the Robin coefficient is scaled proportionally to the inverse total surface area of the performations. We identify a…
The eigenvalue problem for the p-Laplace operator with p>1 on planar domains with the zero Dirichlet boundary condition is considered. The Constrained Descent Method and the Constrained Mountain Pass Algorithm are used in the Sobolev space…
We consider a Schr\"odinger operator H with a non-vanishing radial magnetic field B=dA and Dirichlet boundary conditions on the unit disk. We assume growth conditions on B near the boundary which guarantee in particular the compactness of…
This work deals with theoretical and numerical aspects related to the behavior of the Steklov-Lam\'e eigenvalues on variable domains. After establishing the eigenstructure for the disk, we prove that for a certain class of Lam\'e…
In 1996 Erdoes showed that among planar domains of fixed area, the smallest principal eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian with a constant magnetic field is uniquely achieved on the disk. We establish a quantitative version of this…
We consider elliptic operators with measurable coefficients and Robin boundary conditions on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and show that the first eigenfunction $v$ satisfies $v(x) \ge \delta > 0$ for all $x \in…
In this paper we prove an optimal upper bound for the first eigenvalue of a Robin-Neumann boundary value problem for the p-Laplacian operator in domains with convex holes. An analogous estimate is obtained for the corresponding torsional…
The first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on a surface can be viewed as a functional on the space of Riemannian metrics of a given area. Critical points of this functional are called extremal metrics. The only known extremal metrics are a round…
The main purpose of this work is to establish some logarithmic estimates of optimal type in the Hardy-Sobolev space $H^{k, \infty}; k \in {\mathbb{N}}^*$ of an annular domain. These results are considered as a continuation of a previous…

We study the problem of maximizing the $k$-th eigenvalue functional over the class of absolutely continuous measures on a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $m\geq 3$. For dimensions $3 \leq m \leq 6$, we generalize the work of…
We write down a Robin boundary term for general relativity. The construction relies on the Neumann result of arXiv:1605.01603 in an essential way. This is unlike in mechanics and (polynomial) field theory, where two formulations of the…
In this paper we look for the domains minimizing the h-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplacian $\lambda$ h with a constraint on the diameter. Existence of an optimal domain is easily obtained, and is attained at a constant width body. In…
