In this paper we obtain a Hadamard type formula for simple eigenvalues and an analog to the Rayleigh-Faber-Krahn inequality for a class of nonlocal eigenvalue problems. Such class of equations include among others, the classical nonlocal…

A sharp lower bound for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the $p$-laplacian in Gaussian space is derived for sets with prescribed generalized torsional rigidity. The result provides an extension of the classical spectral inequality due to…

For a hyponormal operator, C. R. Putnam's inequality gives an upper bound on the norm of its self-commutator. In the special case of a Toeplitz operator with analytic symbol in the Smirnov space of a domain, there is also a geometric lower…

\AA. Pleijel (1956) has proved that in the case of the Laplacian with Dirichlet condition, the equality in the Courant nodal theorem (Courant sharp situation) can only be true for a finite number of eigenvalues when the dimension is $\geq…

We study the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue $\lambda_2(T,\delta\Omega)$ of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on a finite tree $T$ with leaf boundary $\delta\Omega$, under a constraint on the diameter $D$. He and Hua [Calc. Var. PDE, 2022]…

We prove that, if $\Omega$ is an open bounded domain with smooth and connected boundary, for every $p \in (1, + \infty)$ the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the normalized $p$-Laplacian is simple in the sense that two positive eigenfunctions…

In this paper we prove a Faber-Krahn type inequality for the first eigenvalue of the Hermite operator with Robin boundary condition. We prove that the optimal set is an half-space and we also address the equality case in such inequality.

This paper is devoted to the refine analysis of Courant's theorem for the Dirichlet Laplacian. Many papers (and some of them quite recent) have investigated in which cases this inequality in Courant's theorem is an equality: Pleijel,…

We consider the well-known following shape optimization problem: $$\lambda_1(\Omega^*)=\min_{\stackrel{|\Omega|=a} {\Omega\subset{D}}} \lambda_1(\Omega), $$ where $\lambda_1$ denotes the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator with…

We give lower bounds for the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue on connected graphs. These bounds depend on the extrinsic diameter of the boundary and not on the diameter of the graph. We obtain a lower bound which is sharp when the cardinal…

Let $B_2(p)$ be an $n$-dimensional smooth geodesic ball with Ricci curvature $\geq-(n-1)\kappa^2$ for some $\kappa\geq0$. We establish the Sobolev inequality and the uniform Neumann-Poincar\'e inequality on each minimal graph over $B_1(p)$…
