The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ is a non-local operator which depends on the parameter $\alpha$ and recovers the usual Laplacian as $\alpha \to 2$. A numerical method for the fractional Laplacian is proposed, based on the…

We prove an upper bound for the volume-normalized second nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace operator on closed Riemannian manifold, in terms of the conformal volume. This bound provides effective upper bound for a large class of manifolds,…

We prove an entanglement principle for fractional Laplace operators on $\mathbb R^n$ for $n\geq 2$ as follows; if different fractional powers of the Laplace operator acting on several distinct functions on $\mathbb R^n$, which vanish on…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact connected orientable Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge4$ and let $\lambda_{k,p} (g)$ be the $k$-th positive eigenvalue of the Laplacian $\Delta_{g,p}=dd^*+d^*d$ acting on differential forms of degree $p$ on…

We show that the resolvent of the Laplacian on SL(3,$\mathbb{R}$)/SO(3) can be lifted to a meromorphic function on a Riemann surface which is a branched covering of $\mathbb{C}$. The poles of this function are called the resonances of the…

We extend to manifolds endowed with a general geometric structure, the classical notions of gradient as well as Laplace operator, and provide some of their natural properties.

We derive a numerical approximation of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on compact surfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with an axial symmetry. To do so we use a noncommutative Laplace operator defined on the space of finite dimensional…

We give a uniform description of resolvents and complex powers of elliptic semiclassical cone differential operators as the semiclassical parameter $h$ tends to $0$. An example of such an operator is the shifted semiclassical Laplacian…

We study the regularized determinant of the Laplacian as a functional on the space of Mandelstam diagrams (noncompact translation surfaces glued from finite and semi-infinite cylinders). A Mandelstam diagram can be considered as a compact…

We consider a convolution-type operator on vector bundles over metric-measure spaces. This operator extends the analogous convolution Laplacian on functions in our earlier work to vector bundles, and is a natural extension of the graph…
