In this article we determine bounds on the maximal order of vanishing for eigenfunctions of a generalized Dirichlet-to-Neumann map (which is associated with fractional Schr\"odinger equations) on a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold,…

A sufficient condition for the infinite dimensionality of the Bergman space of a pseudoconvex domain is given. This condition holds on any pseudoconvex domain that has at least one smooth boundary point of finite type in the sense of…

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…

We show that as the ratio between the first Dirichlet eigenvalues of a convex domain and of the ball with the same volume becomes large, the same must happen to the corresponding ratio of isoperimetric constants. The proof is based on the…

On a convex bounded Euclidean domain, the ground state for the Laplacian with Neumann boundary conditions is a constant, while the Dirichlet ground state is log-concave. The Robin eigenvalue problem can be considered as interpolating…

We say that a bounded domain $\Omega$ is optimal for the first positive curl eigenvalue $\mu_1(\Omega)$ if $\mu_1(\Omega)\leq \mu_1(\Omega')$ for any domain $\Omega'$ with the same volume. In spite of the fact that $\mu_1(\Omega)$ is…

We investigate existence and uniqueness of maximal plurisubharmonic functions on bounded domains with boundary data that are not assumed to be continuous or bounded. The result is applied to approximate (possibly unbounded from above)…

Neumann domains of Laplacian eigenfunctions form a natural counterpart of nodal domains. The restriction of an eigenfunction to one of its nodal domains is the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of that domain. This simple observation is…
