In this expository paper, we explain a formula for the multiplicities of the index of an equivariant transversally elliptic operator on a $G$-manifold. The formula is a sum of integrals over blowups of the strata of the group action and…

We prove a quantitative version of the non-uniform hyperbolicity of the Teichm\"uller geodesic flow. Namely, at each point of any Teichm\"uller flow line, we bound the infinitesimal spectral gap for variations of the Hodge norm along the…

The model problem of a plane angle for a second-order elliptic system subject to Dirichlet, mixed, and Neumann boundary conditions is analyzed. For each boundary condition, the existence of solutions of the form $r^\lambda v$ is reduced to…

The spectrum of a selfadjoint second order elliptic differential operator in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is described in terms of the limiting behavior of Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps, which arise in a multi-dimensional Glazman decomposition and…
