We prove that the nodal set (zero set) of a solution of a generalized Dirac equation on a Riemannian manifold has codimension 2 at least. If the underlying manifold is a surface, then the nodal set is discrete. We obtain a quick proof of…

We study global obstructions to the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor on a Riemannian 3-manifold. As a topological obstruction, we first show that if the 3-manifold is closed, then certain choices of the eigenvalues are prohibited: in…

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…

Under suitable invertibility hypothesis, the spectrum of the Dirac operator on certain open spin Riemannian manifolds is discrete, and obeys a growth law depending qualitatively on the (in)finiteness of the volume.
