For any Lipschitz domain we construct an arbitrarily small, localized perturbation which splits the spectrum of the Laplacian into simple eigenvalues. We use for this purpose a Hadamard's formula and spectral stability results.

We consider the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on an open, bounded, connected set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^2$ boundary, with a Neumann boundary condition or a Robin boundary condition. We obtain upper bounds for those eigenvalues that have a…

We generalize a classical inequality between the eigenvalues of the Laplacians with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded, planar domains: in 1955, Payne proved that below the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian…

The magnetic Laplacian on a planar domain under a strong constant magnetic field has eigenvalues close to the Landau levels. We study the case when the domain is a disc and the spectrum consists of branches of eigenvalues of one dimensional…

We establish the solvability of the $L^p$-Dirichlet and $L^{p^\prime}$-Neumann problems for the Laplacian for $p\in (\frac{n}{n-1}-\varepsilon,\frac{2n}{n-1}]$ for some $\varepsilon>0$ in $2$-sided chord-arc domains with unbounded boundary…
