In this thesis I demonstrate that isospectral domains, that is domains of differing geometric shapes that possess identical spectra, do not remain isospectral when subject to uniform rotation. One thus *can* hear the shape of a rotating…
We introduce horizontal and vertical motivic invariants of birational maps between rational dominant maps and study their basic properties. As a first application, we show that the (usual) motivic invariants vanish for birational…
In many applied problems one seeks to identify and count the critical points of a particular eigenvalue of a smooth parametric family of self-adjoint matrices, with the parameter space often being known and simple, such as a torus. Among…

In this paper, we show that under certain conditions on the coefficients and initial values, solutions of two different Bernoulli initial-value problems are symmetric to each other either with respect to the t-axis, or the y-axis, or the…
The lower-order cr-invariant variational problem for Legendrian curves in the 3-sphere is studied and its Euler-Lagrange equations are deduced. Closed critical curves are investigated. Closed critical curves with non-constant cr-curvature…
We prove that the curl operator on closed oriented $3$-manifolds, i.e., the square root of the Hodge Laplacian on its coexact spectrum, generically has $1$-dimensional eigenspaces, even along $1$-parameter families of $\mathcal{C}^k$…
The usual treatment of a (first order) classical field theory such as electromagnetism has a little drawback: It has a primary constraint submanifold that arise from the fact that the dynamics is governed by the antisymmetric part of the…
We obtain the simplicity of the first Neumann eigenvalue of convex thin domain with boundary in $R^n$ and compact thin manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature. For convex thin domain in $R^2$, we get the simplicity of the first k…
We investigate the spectral statistics of the asymmetric rotor model (triaxial rigid rotator). The asymmetric top is classically integrable and, according to the Berry-Tabor theory, its spectral statistics should be Poissonian.…
Symmetric kernel matrices are a well-researched topic in the literature of kernel based approximation. In particular stability properties in terms of lower bounds on the smallest eigenvalue of such symmetric kernel matrices are thoroughly…
The relation between symmetry reduction before and after quantization of a field theory is discussed using a toy model: the axisymmetric Klein-Gordon field. We consider three possible notions of symmetry at the quantum level: invariance…
We explicitly evaluate the principal eigenvalue of the extremal Pucci's sup--operator for a class of special plane domains, and we prove that, for fixed area, the eigenvalue is minimal for the most symmetric set.
The analysis of diagonalizable matrices in terms of their so-called isospectral reduction represents a versatile approach to the underlying eigenvalue problem. Starting from a symmetry of the isospectral reduction, we show in the present…
By virtue of a weak comparison principle in small domains we prove axial symmetry in convex and symmetric smooth bounded domains as well as radial symmetry in balls for regular solutions of a class of quasi-linear elliptic systems in…
We study the spectral properties of curl, a linear differential operator of first order acting on differential forms of appropriate degree on an odd-dimensional closed oriented Riemannian manifold. In three dimensions its eigenvalues are…
We study the low-lying eigenvalues of the semiclassical Robin Laplacian in a smooth planar domain symmetric with respect to an axis. In the case when the curvature of the boundary of the domain attains its maximum at exactly two points away…
This work investigates spectrum and root functions (that is, eigen- and associated functions) of a Sturm-Liouville problem involving an abstract linear operator (nonselfadjoint in general) in the equation together with supplementary…
We study stochastic Burgers turbulence without pressure. We first show that the variational derivative of the Burgers equation is dependent on the velocity field, suggesting the existence of an anomaly. The anomaly is created by an operator…
We consider the number of roots of linear combinations of a system of $n$ orthogonal eigenfunctions of a Sturm-Liouville initial value problem with i.i.d. standard Gaussian coefficients. We prove that its distribution inherits the…
