We analyse how the spectrum of the anisotropic Maxwell system with bounded conductivity on a Lipschitz domain is approximated by domain truncation. First we prove a new non-convex enclosure for the spectrum of the Maxwell system, with weak…
We give some theoretical as well as computational results on Laplace and Maxwell constants. Besides the classical de Rham complex we investigate the complex of elasticity and the complex related to the biharmonic equation and general…
In this paper we prove that the second (non-trivial) Neumann eigenvalue of the Laplace operator on smooth domains of R N with prescribed measure m attains its maximum on the union of two disjoint balls of measure m 2. As a consequence, the…
We describe the interplay between electric-magnetic duality and higher symmetry in Maxwell theory. When the fine-structure constant is rational, the theory admits non-invertible symmetries which can be realized as composites of…
In this paper, we obtain optimal upper bounds for all the Neumann eigenvalues in two situations (that are closely related). First we consider a one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem where the density is a function $h(x)$ whose…
Inequalities between the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian have received much attention in the literature, but open problems abound. Here, we study the number of Neumann eigenvalues no greater than the first Dirichlet…
It is proved that if a bounded domain in three dimensions satisfies a certain concavity condition, then the Neumann-Poincar\'e operator on the boundary of the domain or its inversion in a sphere has at least one negative eigenvalue. The…
In this paper, we study the Neumann problem of Monge-Amp\`ere equations in Semi-space. For two dimensional case, we prove that its viscosity convex solutions must be a quadratic polynomial. When the space dimension $n\geq 3$, we show that…
We investigate the best constants for the regional fractional $p$-Poincar\'e inequality and the fractional $p$-Poincar\'e inequality in cylindrical domains. For the special case $p=2$, the result was already known due to…
In this paper, we give a relationship between the eigenvalues of the Hodge Laplacian and the eigenvalues of the Jacobi operator for a free boundary minimal hypersurface of a Euclidean convex body. We then use this relationship to obtain new…
In [SWW16, HW17] it is shown that the difference of the first two eigenvalues of the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary condition on convex domain with diameter $D$ of sphere $\mathbb S^n$ is $\geq 3 \frac{\pi^2}{D^2}$ when $n \geq 3$. We…
We announce a well-posedness result for the Laplace equation in weighted Sobolev spaces on polyhedral domains in $\RR^n$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The weight is the distance to the set of singular boundary points. We give a…
We give an example of a domain in dimension $N \geq 3$, homeomorphic to a ball and with analytic boundary, for which the second eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian has an eigenfunction with a closed nodal surface. The domain is…
It is shown that the set of equations known as Maxwell's equations perfectly describe two very different systems: (1) the usual electromagnetic phenomena in vacuum or in the matter and (2) the deformation of isotropic solid lattices,…
For a given complex square matrix $A$ with constant row sum, we establish two new eigenvalue inclusion sets. Using these bounds, first we derive bounds for the second largest and smallest eigenvalues of adjacency matrices of $k$-regular…
The Duffin-Kemmer form of massless vector field (Maxwell field) is extended to the case of arbitrary pseudo-Riemannian space-time in accordance with the tetrad recipe of Tetrode-Weyl-Fock-Ivanenko. In this approach, the Maxwell equations…
We study boundary value problems for bounded uniform domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, with non-Lipschitz (and possibly fractal) boundaries. We prove Poincar\'e inequalities with trace terms and uniform constants for uniform…
This paper deals with some questions that have received a lot of attention since they were raised by Hejhal and Rackner in their 1992 numerical computations of Maass forms. We establish sharp upper and lower bounds for the…
We consider the torsional rigidity and the principal eigenvalue related to the Laplace operator with Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions. The goal is to find upper and lower bounds to products of suitable powers of the quantities above…
We consider the functional given by the product of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue and the torsional rigidity of planar domains normalized by the area. This scale invariant functional was studied by P\'olya and Szeg\H{o} in 1951 who showed…
