The central problem we consider is the distribution of eigenvalues of closed linear operators which are not selfadjoint, with a focus on those operators which are obtained as perturbations of selfadjoint linear operators. Two methods are…

This article is an expanded version of the plenary talk given by Evans Harrell at QMath98, a meeting in Prague, June 1998. We consider Laplace operators and Schr\"odinger operators with potentials containing curvature on certain regions of…

We use the theory of rectifiable metric spaces to define a Dirichlet energy of Lipschitz functions defined on the support of integral currents. This energy is obtained by integration of the square of the norm of the tangential derivative,…

Let $\Omega$ be a Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb R^n$ $n\geq 2,$ and $L=\mbox{div} (A\nabla\cdot)$ be a second order elliptic operator in divergence form. We establish solvability of the Dirichlet regularity problem with boundary data in…

In this work, we review and extend some well known results for the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet $p-$Laplace operator to a more general class of monotone quasilinear elliptic operators. As an application we obtain some homogenization results…

We deal with homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary-value problems for anisotropic elliptic operators of p-Laplace type. They emerge as Euler-Lagrange equations of integral functionals of the Calculus of Variations built upon possibly…

Second order nonlinear eigenvalue problems are considered for which the spectrum is an interval. The boundary conditions are of Robin and Dirichlet type. The shape and the number of solutions are discussed by means of a phase plane…

We deal with a linear hyperbolic differential operator of the second order on a bounded planar domain with a smooth boundary. We establish a well-posedness result in case where a mixed, Dirichlet-Neumann, condition is prescribed on the…

In this paper we are interested in integro-differential elliptic and parabolic equations involving nonlocal operators with order less than one, and a gradient term whose coercivity growth makes it the leading term in the equation. We obtain…

In this article we consider the Dirichlet problem on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\bf R}^d$ with respect to a second-order elliptic differential operator in divergence form. We do not assume a divergence condition as in the pioneering…

This paper gives a framework to produce the lower bound of eigenvalues defined in a Hilbert space by the eigenvalues defined in another Hilbert space. The method is based on using the max-min principle for the eigenvalue problems.

The dependence on the domain is studied for the Dirichlet eigenvalues of an elliptic operator considered in bounded domains. Their proximity is measured by a norm of the difference of two orthogonal projectors corresponding to the reference…
