We prove a bound on the heat trace of the Neumann Laplacian on a convex domain that captures the first two terms in its small-time expansion, but is valid for all times and depends on the underlying domain only through very simple geometric…

For a planar domain $\Omega$, we consider the Dirichlet spaces with respect to a base point $\zeta\in\Omega$ and the corresponding kernel functions. It is not known how these kernel functions behave as we vary the base point. In this note,…

We introduce a new variational principle for the study of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacians with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions on planar domains. In contrast to the classical variational principles, its minimizers…
