We prove a Hardy inequality for uniformly elliptic operators subject to Dirichlet or mixed boundary conditions on domains $\Omega$ with piecewiese smooth boundary in arbitrary Riemannian Manifolds (M, g). Employing an approach of E.B.…

We continue our previous study of improved Hardy, Rellich and Uncertainty principle inequalities on a Riemannian manifold $M$, started in \cite{Kombe-Ozaydin}. In the present paper we prove new weighted Hardy-Poincar\'e, Rellich type…

We use the averaged variational principle introduced in a recent article on graph spectra [7] to obtain upper bounds for sums of eigenvalues of several partial differential operators of interest in geometric analysis, which are analogues of…

It is shown that eigenvalues of Laplace-Beltrami operators on compact Riemannian manifolds can be determined as limits of eigenvalues of certain finite-dimensional operators in spaces of polyharmonic functions with singularities. In…

We obtain the sharp version of the uncertainty principle recently introduced in [47], and improved by [13], relating the size of the zero set of a continuous function having zero mean and the optimal transport cost between the mass of the…

This paper studies the uncertainty principle for spherical $h$-harmonic expansions on the unit sphere of $\mathbb{R}^d$ associated with a weight function invariant under a general finite reflection group, which is in full analogy with the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\widehat{G}$ denote its dual group, equipped with a Haar measure. A variant of the uncertainty principle states that for any $S \subset G$ and $\Sigma \subset \widehat{G}$, there exists a…

We study the asymptotic growth of the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on singular Riemannian manifolds, where all geometrical invariants appearing in classical spectral asymptotics are unbounded, and the total volume can be…

The purpose of this paper is to develop a Fourier uncertainty principle on compact Riemannian manifolds and contrast the underlying ideas with those arising in the setting of locally compact abelian groups. The key obstacle is the growth of…

We establish anisotropic uncertainty principles (UPs) for general metaplectic operators acting on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$, including degenerate cases associated with symplectic matrices whose $B$-block has nontrivial kernel. In this setting,…

The uncertainty principle is fundamentally rooted in the algebraic asymmetry between observables. We introduce a new class of uncertainty relations grounded in the resource theory of asymmetry, where incompatibility is quantified by an…
