In this paper, we investigate asymptotics of the continuous graph Laplace operator on a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ admitting an isolated singularity $x$. We show that if the curvature function $\kappa$ doesn't grow too fast near…

We study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the surfaces of four of the regular polyhedrons: tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron and cube. We show two types of eigenfunctions: nonsingular ones that are smooth at vertices,…
