In the present paper, we study the variational properties of Steklov transmission eigenvalues, which can be seen as eigenvalues of the sum of two Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators on two different sides of a given curve contained in a surface.…

We obtain upper and lower bounds for Steklov eigenvalues of submanifolds with prescribed boundary in Euclidean space. A very general upper bound is proved, which depends only on the geometry of the fixed boundary and on the measure of the…

We study the biharmonic Steklov eigenvalue problem on a compact Riemannian manifold $\Omega$ with smooth boundary. We give a computable, sharp lower bound of the first eigenvalue of this problem, which depends only on the dimension, a lower…

In this paper we prove that given a volume, among all domains with smooth boundary in rank-1 symmetric spaces of noncompact type, geodesic balls maximizes the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue. We also prove a comparison result for the first…

We prove several results about the multiplicity of the first Steklov eigenvalues on compact surfaces with boundary. We improve some bounds on the multiplicity, especially for the first eigenvalue, and we prove they are sharp on some…

We show several results comparing sharp eigenvalue bounds for the first Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces under change of the topology. Among others, we obtain strict monotonicity in the genus. Combined with results of the second named author…

In a recent paper A. Fraser and R. Schoen have proved the existence of free boundary minimal surfaces $\Sigma\_n$ in $B^3$ which have genus $0$ and $n$ boundary components, for all $ n \geq 3$. For large $n$, we give an independent…

We show that an embedded minimal annulus $\Sigma^2 \subset B^3$ which intersects $\partial B^3$ orthogonally and is invariant under reflection through the coordinate planes is the critical catenoid. The proof uses nodal domain arguments and…

In this article, we give computable lower bounds for the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue $\sigma_1$ of a compact connected 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ with several cylindrical boundary components. These estimates show how the…

We consider a maximization problem for eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on surfaces of revolution in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with two prescribed boundary components. For every $j$, we show that there is a surface $\Sigma_j$ which…

In this paper we obtain an analogue of Toponogov theorem in dimension 3 for compact manifolds $M^3$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary $\partial M$. Here we obtain a sharp upper bound for the length…

We employ min-max techniques to show that the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$ contains embedded free boundary minimal surfaces with connected boundary and arbitrary genus.

We study compactly free boundary minimal submanifolds in spherical caps $\Br$ and their geometric spectral properties. Following the foundational work of Fraser-Schoen \cite{FS2012}, Lima-Menezes \cite{LM23} established the connection…

We prove that among all doubly connected domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form $B_1\backslash \overline{B_2}$, where $B_1$ and $B_2$ are open balls of fixed radii such that $\overline{B_2}\subset B_1$, the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue…

We consider an eigenvalue problem for the biharmonic operator with Steklov-type boundary conditions. We obtain it as a limiting Neumann problem for the biharmonic operator in a process of mass concentration at the boundary. We study the…

We prove two upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues of a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The first involves the volume of the manifold and of its boundary, as well as packing and volume growth constants of the boundary and its…

We prove the existence of metrics maximizing the first eigenvalue normalized by area on closed, non-orientable surfaces assuming two spectral gap conditions. These spectral gap conditions are proved by the authors in \cite{MS3}.

We consider free boundary minimal submanifolds in geodesic balls in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^n$ and in the round upper hemisphere $\mathbb S^n_+$. Recently, Lima and Menezes have found a connection between free boundary minimal…

In this paper we study a Steklov-Robin eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian in annular domains. More precisely, we consider $\Omega=\Omega_0 \setminus \overline{B}_{r}$, where $B_{r}$ is the ball centered at the origin with radius $r>0$ and…

In recent work with Kusner, we developed a method, based on the equivariant optimization of Laplace and Steklov eigenvalues, for producing minimal surfaces of prescribed topology in low-dimensional balls and spheres. We used the method to…
