This paper is concerned with the construction of discrete counterparts of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on Riemannian manifolds that can be effectively used in the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Since existing…

We consider the Laplace operator in a tubular neighbourhood of a conical surface of revolution, subject to an Aharonov-Bohm magnetic field supported on the axis of symmetry and Dirichlet boundary conditions on the boundary of the domain. We…

We prove uniform $L^p$ estimates for resolvents of higher order elliptic self-adjoint differential operators on compact manifolds without boundary, generalizing a corresponding resul of [3] in the case of Laplace-- Beltrami operators on…

We construct a foliation of an asymptotically flat end of a Riemannian manifold by hypersurfaces which are critical points of a natural functional arising in potential theory. These hypersurfaces are perturbations of large coordinate…

We establish dimension-independent estimates related to heat operators e^{tL} on manifolds. We first develop a very general contractivity result for Markov kernels which can be applied to diffusion semigroups. Second, we develop estimates…

We study the fifth term in the asymptotic expansion of the heat operator trace for a partial differential operator of Laplace type on a compact Riemannian manifold with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions.

We perform quantitative spectral analysis of the self-adjoint Dirichlet Laplacian $\mathsf{H}$ on an unbounded, radially symmetric (generalized) parabolic layer $\mathcal{P}\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. It was known before that $\mathsf{H}$ has an…

We establish an entanglement principle for fractional powers of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^n$, $n\ge 2$. More precisely, we prove that if finitely many distinct noninteger powers of $-\Delta_{\mathbb H^n}$,…

We define scattering phases associated to pairs of Laplacians on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, and prove some spectral asymptotics for them. These result are applications of Isozaki-Kitada's constructions which we adapt to this…

We show that, on any asymptotically hyperbolic surface, the essential spectrum of the Lichnerowicz Laplacian $\Delta_L$ contains the ray $[{1/4},+\infty[$. If moreover the scalar curvature is constant then -2 and 0 are infinite dimensional…

We introduce the logarithmic analogue of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on Ahlfors regular metric-measure spaces. This operator is intrinsically defined with spectral properties analogous to those of elliptic pseudo-differential operators on…

On a class of asymptotically conical manifolds, we prove two types of low frequency estimates for the resolvent of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. The first result is a uniform $ L^2 \rightarrow L^2 $ bound for $ \langle r \rangle^{-1} (-…

The main objective of this dissertation is to analyse thoroughly the construction of self-adjoint extensions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator defined on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and the role that quadratic forms play to…

This article gives a simple treatment of the quantum Birkhoff normal form for semiclassical pseudo-differential operators with smooth coefficients. The normal form is applied to describe the discrete spectrum in a generalised non-degenerate…

We prove a resolvent estimate for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a scattering manifold with a hyperbolic trapped set, and as a corollary deduce local smoothing. We use a result of Nonnenmacher-Zworski to provide an estimate near the…

In this paper we provide an integral representation of the fractional Laplace-Beltrami operator for general riemannian manifolds which has several interesting applications. We give two different proofs, in two different scenarios, of…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a spectral problem for the Laplacian in a domain with rapidly oscillating boundary. We consider the case where the eigenvalue of the limit problem is multiple. We construct the leading…

We present a brief survey of the spectral theory and dynamics of infinite volume asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. Beginning with their geometry and examples, we proceed to their spectral and scattering theories, dynamics, and the…

Let $P$ be a Laplace type operator acting on a smooth hermitean vector bundle $V$ of fiber $\mathbb{C}^N$ over a compact Riemannian manifold given locally by $P= - [g^{\mu\nu} u(x)\partial_\mu\partial_\nu + v^\nu(x)\partial_\nu + w(x)]$…
