On any compact Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ of dimension $n$, the $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions ${\phi_{\lambda}}$ satisfy $||\phi_{\lambda}||_{\infty} \leq C \lambda^{\frac{n-1}{2}}$ where $-\Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda^2…
In the recent work arXiv:1311.3999, the authors proved that real analytic manifolds $(M, g)$ with maximal eigenfunction growth must have a self-focal point p whose first return map has an invariant L1 measure on $S^*_p M$. In this addendum…
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold and $\{\phi_h\}$ an $L^2$-normalized sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions, $-h^2\Delta_g\phi_h=\phi_h$. Given a smooth submanifold $H \subset M$ of codimension $k\geq 1$, we find conditions…
Let $(M,g)$ be a two-dimensional compact boundaryless Riemannian manifold with Laplacian, $\Delta_g$. If $e_\lambda$ are the associated eigenfunctions of $\sqrt{-\Delta_g}$ so that $-\Delta_g e_\lambda = \lambda^2 e_\lambda$, then it has…
This work concerns $L^p$ norms of high energy Laplace eigenfunctions, $(-\Delta_g-\lambda^2)\phi_\lambda=0$, $\|\phi_\lambda\|_{L^2}=1$. In 1988, Sogge gave optimal estimates on the growth of $\|\phi_\lambda\|_{L^p}$ for a general compact…
We study the growth of Laplacian eigenfunctions $ -\Delta \phi_k = \lambda_k \phi_k$ on compact manifolds $(M,g)$. H\"ormander proved sharp polynomial bounds on $\| \phi_k\|_{L^{\infty}}$ which are attained on the sphere. On a `generic'…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ without boundary, we estimate the Lebesgue norm of Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions when restricted to a wide variety of subsets $\Gamma$ of $M$. The sets $\Gamma$ that we consider are Borel…
Several rigidity results are proved for critical points of natural Riemannian functionals on the space of metrics on 3-manifolds. Two of these results are as follows. Let (N, g) be a complete Riemannian 3-manifold, satisfying one of the…
Let $(M,g)$ be a non-compact riemannian $n$-manifold with bounded geometry at order $k\geq\frac{n}{2}$. We show that if the spectrum of the Laplacian starts with $q+1$ discrete eigenvalues isolated from the essential spectrum, and if the…
Given a metrically complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with smooth nonempty boundary and assuming that one of its curvatures is subject to a certain bound, we address the problem of whether it is possibile to realize $(M,g)$ as a domain…

Let $(M,g)$ be an $n$-dimensional compact boudaryless Riemannian manifold with nonpositive sectional curvature, then our conclusion is that we can give improved estimates for the $L^p$ norms of the restrictions of eigenfunctions to smooth…
Analysis of non-compact manifolds almost always requires some controlled behavior at infinity. Without such, one neither can show, nor expect, strong properties. On the other hand, such assumptions restrict the possible applications and…

If $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for improved $L^p(M)$-norms of eigenfunctions for all $2<p\ne p_c=\tfrac{2(n+1)}{n-1}$, the critical exponent. Since improved…
