Denote with $\mu_{1}(\Omega;e^{h\left(|x|\right)})$ the first nontrivial eigenvalue of the Neumann problem \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{lll} -\text{div}\left(e^{h\left(|x|\right)}\nabla u\right) =\mu e^{h\left(|x|\right)}u &…
We show that, on any asymptotically hyperbolic surface, the essential spectrum of the Lichnerowicz Laplacian $\Delta_L$ contains the ray $[{1/4},+\infty[$. If moreover the scalar curvature is constant then -2 and 0 are infinite dimensional…
An eigenvalue problem relevant for non-linear sigma model with singular metric is considered. We prove the existence of a non-degenerate pure point spectrum for all finite values of the size R of the system. In the infrared (IR) regime…
The spectrum of the singular indefinite Sturm-Liouville operator $$A=\text{\rm sgn}(\cdot)\bigl(-\tfrac{d^2}{dx^2}+q\bigr)$$ with a real potential $q\in L^1(\mathbb R)$ covers the whole real line and, in addition, non-real eigenvalues may…
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…
We consider the Laplacian on a class of smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{\nu}$, $\nu\ge 2$, with attractive Robin boundary conditions: \[ Q^\Omega_\alpha u=-\Delta u, \quad \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\alpha u \text{ on }…
We study the eigenvalue problem $-u"+V(z)u=\lambda u$ in the complex plane with the boundary condition that $u(z)$ decays to zero as $z$ tends to infinity along the two rays $\arg z=-\frac{\pi}{2} \pm \frac{2\pi}{m+2}$, where…
Let $\mathbb{M}$ denote a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature $K_{\mathbb{M}} \leq k$ and Ricci curvature $\text{Ric}_{\mathbb{M}} \geq (n-1)K$, where $k,K \in \mathbb{R}$. Then for a bounded domain…
We provide bounds for the sequence of eigenvalues $\{\lambda_i(\Omega)\}_i$ of the Dirichlet problem $$ L_\Delta u=\lambda u\ \ {\rm in}\ \, \Omega,\quad\quad u=0\ \ {\rm in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^N\setminus \Omega,$$ where $L_\Delta$ is the…
In this paper, we study the relationship between the type problem and the asymptotic behaviour of the first (Dirichlet) eigenvalues $\lambda_1(B_r)$ of ``balls'' $B_r:=\{\rho<r\}$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ as $r\rightarrow…
In this paper we consider nodal radial solutions of the problem $$ \begin{cases} -\Delta u=|u|^{2^*-2}u+\lambda u&\text{ in }B,\\ u=0&\text{ on }\partial B \end{cases} $$ where $2^*=\frac{2N}{N-2}$ with $3\le N\le6$ and $B$ is the unit ball…
The eigenvalue problem for the p-Laplace operator with Robin boundary condition is considered in this paper. A Faber-Krahn type inequality is proved. More precisely, it is shown that amongst all the domains of fixed volume, the ball has the…
In this article we characterize the $\mathrm{L}^\infty$ eigenvalue problem associated to the Rayleigh quotient $\left.{\|\nabla u\|_{\mathrm{L}^\infty}}\middle/{\|u\|_\infty}\right.$ and relate it to a divergence-form PDE, similarly to what…
We consider the problem of minimising the $n^{th}-$eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$. Although for $n=1,2$ and a positive boundary parameter $\alpha$ it is known that the minimisers do not depend on $\alpha$, we…
The main result of the present paper consists in a quantitative estimate of unique continuation at the boundary for solutions to the wave equation. Such estimate is the sharp quantitative counterpart of the following strong unique…
In this paper we study the $\Gamma$-limit, as $p\to 1$, of the functional $$ J_{p}(u)=\frac{\displaystyle\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^p + \beta\int_{ \partial \Omega} |u|^p}{\displaystyle \int_\Omega |u|^p}, $$ where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded…
Let $M$ be a closed hypersurface in a noncompact rank-1 symmetric space $(\bar{\mathbb{M}}, ds^2)$ with $-4 \leq K_{\bar{\mathbb{M}}} \leq -1,$ or in a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold $\mathbb{M}$ such that $0 \leq…
The paper is devoted to the study of some properties of the first eigenvalue of the anisotropic $p$-Laplace operator with Robin boundary condition involving a function $\beta$ which in general is not constant. In particular we obtain sharp…
We study the inverse Robin problem for the Schr\"odinger equation in a half-space. The potential is assumed to be compactly supported. We first solve the direct problem for dimensions two and three. We then show that the Robin-to-Robin map…
