We study a discrete and continuous version of the spectral Dirichlet problem in an open bounded connected set $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, in dimension $d\geq 2$. More precisely, consider the simple random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ killed…

We call internal-wave billiard the dynamical system of a point particle that moves freely inside a planar domain (the table) and is reflected by its boundary according to this rule: reflections are standard Fresnel reflections but with the…

In this text we study billiards on ovals and investigate some consequences of a rotational symmetry of the boundary on the dynamics. As it simplifies some calculations, the symmetry helps to obtain the results. We focus on periodic orbits…

We prove that every eigenvalue of a Robin problem with boundary parameter $\alpha$ on a sufficiently smooth domain behaves asymptotically like $-\alpha^2$ as $\alpha \to \infty$. This generalises an existing result for the first eigenvalue.
