Given a compact convex planar domain $\Omega$ with non-empty interior, the classical Neumann's configuration constant $c_{\mathbb{R}}(\Omega)$ is the norm of the Neumann-Poincar\'e operator $K_\Omega$ acting on the space of continuous…

In this paper we prove a sharp lower bound for the first nontrivial Neumann eigenvalue $\mu_1(\Omega)$ for the $p$-Laplace operator in a Lipschitz, bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\R^n$. Our estimate does not require any convexity assumption on…

Theorem (uniformization). Let X be a compact Kahler manifold of dimension n with large, residually finite and nonamenable fundamental group. Then its universal covering is a bounded domain in the n-dimensional affine space.

Relativizing an idea from multiplicity theory, we say that an element x of a von Neumann algebra M is n-divisible if (W*(x)' cap M) unitally contains a factor of type I_n. We decide the density of the n-divisible operators, for various n,…

We study the regularity of minimizers to the composite membrane problem in the plane (ie given a domain omega and a positive number A, smaller than the measure of omega, minimize the first Dirichlet eigenvalue for the Schrodinger operator…

We prove that the elastic Neumann--Poincar\'e operator defined on the smooth boundary of a bounded domain in three dimensions, which is known to be non-compact, is in fact polynomially compact. As a consequence, we prove that the spectrum…

In this paper we discuss compactness of the canonical solution operator to d-bar on weigthed L^2- spaces on C^n. For this purpose we apply ideas which were used for the Witten Laplacian in the real case and various methods of spectral…

Let $T$ be a $C_0$--contraction on a separable Hilbert space. We assume that $I_H-T^*T$ is compact. For a function $f$ holomorphic in the unit disk $\DD$ and continuous on $\bar\DD$, we show that $f(T)$ is compact if and only if $f$…

In this paper we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the canonical solution operator to $\overline \partial $ restricted to radial symmetric Bergman spaces to be a Hilbert-Schmidt operator. We also discuss compactness of the…

Denote by $N_{\cal N} (\Omega,\lambda)$ the counting function of the spectrum of the Neumann problem in the domain $\Omega$ on the plane. G. P\'olya conjectured that $N_{\cal N} (\Omega,\lambda) \ge (4\pi)^{-1} |\Omega| \lambda$. We prove…

We investigate the properties of the Cheeger sets of rotationally invariant, bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. For a rotationally invariant Cheeger set $C$, the free boundary $\partial C \cap \Omega$ consists of pieces of…

In this paper, we mainly study the necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness and compactness of Toeplitz operators on weighted Bergman spaces over a tubular domains by using the Carlson measures on tubular domains. We also…

We show that for $f$ a continuous function on the closed polydisc $\bar{\mathbb{D}^n}$ with $n\geq 2$, the Hankel operator $H_{f}$ is compact on the Bergman space of $\mathbb{D}^n$ if and only if there is a decomposition $f=h+g$, where $h$…

Let $(\Omega,K_{\Omega})$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb C^d$ with the Kobayashi metric $K_{\Omega}$. In this paper we prove that $m$-convexity is a necessary condition for $(\Omega, K_{\Omega})$ to be CAT(0) if $d=2$. Moreover, when…

Given any $n \geq 2$, we show that if $\Omega \subsetneq \mathbb{R}^n$ is an open convex domain (e.g. a half-space), and $u : \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ is a solution to the minimal surface equation which agrees with a linear function on…

For a compact Riemannian surface $(M,g)$ with non-empty boundary $\Gamma$, the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator (DtN-map) $\Lambda_g:C^\infty(\Gamma)\to C^\infty(\Gamma)$ is defined by $\Lambda_gf=\left.\frac{\partial…
