We study the eigenvalue problem for the Neumann-Laplace operator in conformal regular planar domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$. Conformal regular domains support the Poincar\'e inequality and this allows us to estimate the variation of the…

We prove that on convex domains, first mixed Laplace eigenfunctions have no interior critical points if the Dirichlet region is connected and sufficiently small. We also find two seemingly new estimates on the first mixed eigenvalue to give…

We analyze a pair of reflected Brownian motions in a planar domain $D$, for which the increments of both processes form mirror images of each other when the processes are not on the boundary. We show that for $D$ in a class of smooth convex…

In this paper we analyze the behavior of solutions of the Neumann problem posed in a thin domain of the type $R^\epsilon = \{(x_1,x_2) \in \R^2 \; | \; x_1 \in (0,1), \, - \, \epsilon \, b(x_1) < x_2 < \epsilon \, G(x_1,…
