We prove that the real-valued electric potential $q \in L^{\max(2,3 n / 5)}(\Omega)$ of the Dirichlet Laplacian $-\Delta +q$ acting in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \ge 3$, is uniquely determined by the asymptotics of…

The Dirichlet Laplacian between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension in the presence of a magnetic field is considered in the limit when the distance between the hypersurfaces tends to zero. We show that the…

We study the spectrum of phase transitions with prescribed mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds. These phase transitions are solutions to an inhomogeneous semilinear elliptic PDE that give rise to diffuse objects (varifolds) that limit to…

We establish existence and uniqueness results for nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems on n-dimensional time scale domains. Time scales provide a unified framework that encompasses continuous, discrete, and hybrid settings.…

We consider the transmission eigenvalue problem for an impenetrable obstacle with Dirichlet boundary condition surrounded by a thin layer of non-absorbing inhomogeneous material. We derive a rigorous asymptotic expansion for the first…

I discuss a simple toy problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian in a sequence of domains where the contribution of the boundary to the spectral asymptotics is of the same order as the contribution from the interior

So far, the well known two branches of real discrete spectrum of complex PT-symmetric Scarf II potential are kept isolated. Here, we suggest that these two need to be brought together as doublets: $E^n_{\pm}(\lambda)$ with $n=0,1,2...$.…

It is known that the overlap of two energy eigenstates in a decaying quantum system is bounded from above by a function of the energy detuning and the individual decay rates. This is usually traced back to the positive definiteness of an…
