In $64$ E. Lima proved that commuting vector fields on surfaces with non-zero Euler characteristic have common zeros. Such statement is empty in dimension $3$, since all the Euler characteristics vanish. Nevertheless,…
We study the nonlinear Helmholtz equation $(\Delta - \lambda^2)u = \pm |u|^{p-1}u$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\lambda > 0$, $p \in \mathbb{N}$ odd, and more generally $(\Delta_g + V - \lambda^2)u = N[u]$, where $\Delta_g$ is the (positive)…
The purpose of this paper is to present some general inequalities for operator concave functions which include some known inequalities as a particular case. Among other things, we prove that if $A\in \mathcal{B}\left( \mathcal{H} \right)$…
Let ${\mathcal M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful semifinite normal trace $\tau$. We show that the symmetrically $\Delta$-normed operator space $E({\mathcal M},\tau)$ corresponding to an arbitrary symmetrically…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian surface. Consider a family of $L^2$ normalized Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions, written in the semiclassical form $-h_j^2\Delta_g \phi_{h_j} = \phi_{h_j}$, whose eigenvalues satisfy $h h_j^{-1} \in (1, 1…

We use spectral embeddings to give upper bounds on the spectral function of the Laplace--Beltrami operator on homogeneous spaces in terms of the volume growth of balls. In the case of compact manifolds, our bounds extend the 1980 lower…
We study pairs $(U,L_0)$, where $U$ is a unitary operator in $H$ and $L_0\subset H$ is a closed subspace, such that $$ P_{L_0}U|_{L_0}:L_0\to L_0 $$ has a singular value decomposition. Abstract characterizations of this condition are given,…
This paper establishes a bivariate Hardy-Sobolev inequality. Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N \geq 3$) be an open domain, $s \in (0,2)$, $\alpha > 1$, $\beta > 1$ with $\alpha + \beta = 2^*(s)$, and $\kappa \in \mathbb{R}$. For any…
In a previous paper ([1]), we associated a holonomy groupoid and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation (M,F). Using these, we construct the associated pseudodifferential calculus. This calculus gives meaning to a Laplace operator of any…
We derive an explicit formula for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the orthogonal Stiefel manifold, viewed as a constraint submanifold of the Euclidean space of real matrices equipped with the Frobenius metric. Using the general framework…
Let $f(x)=x^TAx+2a^Tx+c$ and $h(x)=x^TBx+2b^Tx+d$ be two quadratic functions having symmetric matrices $A$ and $B$. The S-lemma with equality asks when the unsolvability of the system $f(x)<0, h(x)=0$ implies the existence of a real number…
We prove that, under rather general conditions, the 1-cohomology of a von Neumann algebra $M$ with values in a Banach $M$-bimodule satisfying a combination of smoothness and operatorial conditions, vanishes. For instance, we show that if…
The Hurwitz space is the moduli space of pairs $(X,f)$ where $X$ is a compact Riemann surface and $f$ is a meromorphic function on $X$. We study the Laplace operator $\Delta^{|df|^2}$ of the flat singular Riemannian manifold $(X,|df|^2)$.…
We prove a formula for the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on functions for compact naturally reductive homogeneous spaces in terms of eigenvalues of a generalized Casimir operator and spherical representations. We apply this…
Using the embedded gradient vector field method (see P. Birtea, D. Comanescu, Hessian operators on constraint manifolds, J. Nonlinear Science 25, 2015), we present a general formula for the Laplace-Beltrami operator defined on a constraint…
Let $P$ be the isotropic nearest neighbor transition operator on a homogeneous tree. We consider the $\lambda$-eigenfunctions of $P$ for $\lambda$ outside its $\ell^2$ spectrum, i.e., the eigenfunctions with eigenvalue $\gamma=\lambda - 1$…
We consider a continuous coercive Hamiltonian $H$ on the cotangent bundle of the compact connected manifold $M$ which is convex in the momentum. If $u_\lambda:M\to\mathbb R$ is the viscosity solution of the discounted equation $$ \lambda…

It is known (E.L. Green (1997), O. Post (2003)) that for an arbitrary $m\in\mathbb{N}$ one can construct a periodic non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with at least $m$ gaps in the spectrum of the corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator…
