We study operators of the form $$ L=\sum_{|\alpha|,|\beta|\le n} D^\alpha c_{\alpha,\beta} D^\beta, x\in\mathbb R^n $$ provided that the coefficients of the main symbol corresponding to the indices $|\alpha|=|\beta|=m$ are continuous while…
Take an open domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ whose boundary may be composed of pieces of different dimensions. For instance, $\Omega$ can be a ball on $\mathbb R^3$, minus one of its diameters $D$, or $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^3$ could…

We consider eigenfunctions of a semiclassical Schr{\"o}dinger operator on an interval, with a single-well type potential and Dirichlet boundary conditions. We give upper/lower bounds on the L^2 density of the eigenfunctions that are uniform…
We consider the operator ${\mathcal A}_h=-\Delta+iV$ in the semi-classical $h\rightarrow 0$, where $V$ is a smooth real potential with no critical points. We obtain both the left margin of the spectrum, as well as resolvent estimates on the…
This work is about global H\"older regularity for solutions to elliptic partial differential equations subject to mixed boundary conditions on irregular domains. There are two main results. In the first, we show that if the domain of the…
