We consider the Laplacian on a class of smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{\nu}$, $\nu\ge 2$, with attractive Robin boundary conditions: \[ Q^\Omega_\alpha u=-\Delta u, \quad \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\alpha u \text{ on }…

The sum of the first $n \geq 1$ eigenvalues of the Laplacian is shown to be maximal among triangles for the equilateral triangle, maximal among parallelograms for the square, and maximal among ellipses for the disk, provided the ratio…

Let $B_1$ be a ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$ centred at the origin and $B_0$ be a smaller ball compactly contained in $B_1$. For $p\in(1, \infty)$, using the shape derivative method, we show that the first eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian in…

In this article, we study the asymptotics of Dirichlet eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ in bounded open Lipschitz sets in the small order limit $s \to 0^+$. While it is easy to see that all…

We study the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of the Laplacian in a $n$-dimensional convex domain. For domains of a fixed inner radius, estimates of Chiti imply that the ratio of the $L^2$-norm and $L^{\infty}$-norm of the eigenfunction is…

Comparing Neumann and Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq\Rbb^n$ is a topic that goes back at least to the work of P\'olya \cite{polya}. We study the effect of the isoperimetric ratio of $\Omega$ on…

Here is one of the results obtained in this paper: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain, let $q>1$, with $q<{{n+2}\over {n-2}}$ if $n\geq 3$ and let $\lambda_1$ be the first eigenvalue of the problem $$\cases{-\Delta…

We consider the problem of minimising the $n^{th}-$eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$. Although for $n=1,2$ and a positive boundary parameter $\alpha$ it is known that the minimisers do not depend on $\alpha$, we…

Let $B_1$ be a ball of radius $r_1$ in $S^n(\Hy^n)$, and let $B_0$ be a smaller ball of radius $r_0$ such that $\bar{B_0}\subset B_1$. For $S^n$ we consider $r_1< \pi$. Let $u$ be a solution of the problem $-\La u =1$ in $\Om :=…

For all functions on an arbitrary open set $\Omega\subset\R^3$ with zero boundary values, we prove the optimal bound \[ \sup_{\Omega}|u| \leq (2\pi)^{-1/2} \left(\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2 \,dx\, \int_{\Omega}|\Delta u|^2 \,dx\right)^{1/4}.…

The aim of this paper is to establish two results about multiplicity of solutions to problems involving the $1-$Laplacian operator, with nonlinearities with critical growth. To be more specific, we study the following problem $$ \left\{…
