In this text we describe the spectral nature (pure point or continuous) of a self-similar Sturm-Liouville operator on the line or the half-line. This is motivated by the more general problem of understanding the spectrum of Laplace…
We characterize the essential spectrum of the plasmonic problem for polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}^3$. The description is particularly simple for convex polyhedra and permittivities $\epsilon < - 1$. The plasmonic problem is interpreted as a…
We prove a generalization of the Expander Mixing Lemma for arbitrary (finite) simplicial complexes. The original lemma states that concentration of the Laplace spectrum of a graph implies combinatorial expansion (which is also referred to…
It is shown that solutions of the Neumann problem for the Poisson equation in an arbitrary convex $n$-dimensional domain are uniformly Lipschitz. Applications of this result to some aspects of regularity of solutions to the Neumann problem…

We study spectral properties of Dirichlet Laplacian on the conical layer of the opening angle $\pi-2\theta$ and thickness equal to $\pi$. We demonstrate that below the continuum threshold which is equal to one there is an infinite sequence…
Consider the Laplacian in a straight planar strip of width $\,d\,$, with the Neumann boundary condition at a segment of length $\,2a\,$ of one of the boundaries, and Dirichlet otherwise. For small enough $\,a\,$ this operator has a single…
The Neumann-Poincar\'e (NP) operator naturally appears in the context of metamaterials as it may be used to represent the solutions of elliptic transmission problems via potentiel theory. In particular, its spectral properties are closely…
In this paper we consider a family of Riemannian manifolds, not necessarily complete, with curvature conditions in a neighborhood of a ray. Under these conditions we obtain that the essential spectrum of the Laplacian contains an interval.…
We solve the Kato square root problem for general elliptic operators and systems with measurable and complex coefficients on any domain of the Euclidean space. The operators are subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. We also allow…
