This expository note explores Laplacian eigenfunction localization for compact domains. We work in the context of a particular numerically determined, localized, low frequency eigenfunction.
Sloshing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are studied for vertical cylinders of constant, finite depth occupied by a two-layer fluid. Two families of eigenfrequencies are obtained in the form expressing them explicitly via the eigenvalues of…
We study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the surfaces of four of the regular polyhedrons: tetrahedron, octahedron, icosahedron and cube. We show two types of eigenfunctions: nonsingular ones that are smooth at vertices,…
Here we investigate the two-parameter high-frequency localization for the eigenfunctions of a Schr\"{o}dinger operator with a singular inverse square potential in high-dimensional balls and spherical shells as the azimuthal quantum number…
We present several applications of mode matching methods in spectral and scattering problems. First, we consider the eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian in a finite cylindrical domain that is split into two subdomains by a…
The torsion function of a convex planar domain has convex level sets, but explicit formulae are known only for rectangles and ellipses. Here we study the torsion function on convex planar domains of high eccentricity. We obtain an…
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…
We show that eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on certain non-compact domains with finite area may localize at infinity--provided there is no extreme level clustering--and thus rule out quantum unique ergodicity for such systems. The…
We consider mass concentration properties of Laplace eigenfunctions $\varphi_\lambda$, that is, smooth functions satisfying the equation $-\Delta \varphi_\lambda = \lambda \varphi_\lambda$, on a smooth closed Riemannian manifold. Using a…
Using the eigen-decomposition method, we investigated the plasmonic modes in a two-dimensional quasicrystalline array of metal nanoparticles. Various properties of the plasmonic modes, such as their symmetry, radiation loss and spatial…
The recent development of spectral method has been praised for its high-order convergence in simulating complex physical problems. The combination of embedded boundary method and spectral method becomes a mainstream way to tackle…
The asymptotic behavior of the first eigenvalues of magnetic Laplacian operators with large magnetic fields and Neumann realization in smooth three-dimensional domains is characterized by model problems inside the domain or on its boundary.…
The possibility that our space is multi - rather than singly - connected has gained a renewed interest after the discovery of the low power for the first multipoles of the CMB by WMAP. To test the possibility that our space is a…
We give a delocalization estimate for eigenfunctions of the discrete Laplacian on large $d+1$-regular graphs, showing that any subset of the graph supporting $\epsilon$ of the $L^2$ mass of an eigenfunction must be large. For graphs…
We study a Dirichlet spectral problem for a second-order elliptic operator with locally periodic coefficients in a thin domain. The boundary of the domain is assumed to be locally periodic. When the thickness of the domain $\varepsilon$…
The spectral properties of the Laplacian operator on ``small-world'' lattices, that is mixtures of unidimensional chains and random graphs structures are investigated numerically and analytically. A transfer matrix formalism including a…
The discrete Laplacian on Euclidean triangulated surfaces is a well-established notion. We introduce discrete Laplacians on spherical and hyperbolic triangulated surfaces. On the one hand, our definitions are close to the Euclidean one in…
It has been empirically observed that eigenfunctions of Laplace's equation $-\Delta \phi = \lambda \phi$ with Neumann boundary conditions sometimes localize near the boundary of the domain if that boundary is rough (say, fractal). This has…
We give an elementary new proof of the hot spots conjecture for L-shaped domains. This result, in addition to a new eigenvalue inequality, allows us to locate the hot spots in Swiss cross translation surfaces. We then prove, in several…
We consider the eigenproblem for the Laplacian inside a three-dimensional revolutional domain diffeomorphic to a solid torus and construct asymptotic eigenvalues and eigenfunctions (quasimodes) of the whispering gallery-type. The whispering…
