For all convex co-compact hyperbolic surfaces, we prove the existence of an essential spectral gap, that is a strip beyond the unitarity axis in which the Selberg zeta function has only finitely many zeroes. We make no assumption on the…

We establish a resonance free strip for codimension 2 symplectic normally hyperbolic trapped sets with smooth incoming/outgoing tails. An important application is wave decay on Kerr and Kerr-de Sitter black holes. We recover the optimal…

Given a negatively curved compact Riemannian surface $X$, we give an explicit estimate, valid with high probability as the degree goes to infinity, of the first non-trivial eigenvalue of the Laplacian on random Riemannian covers of $X$. The…

A coupling method and an analytic one allow us to prove new lower bounds for the spectral gap of reversible diffusions on compact manifolds. Those bounds are based on the a notion of curvature of the diffusion, like the coarse Ricci…

In this note we show that the recent work of Magee, Puder and van Handel [MPvH25] can be applied to obtain an optimal spectral gap result with polynomial error rate for uniformly random covers of closed hyperbolic surfaces. Let $X$ be a…

We prove the existence of a resonance free region in scattering by a strictly convex obstacle with the Robin boundary condition. More precisely, we show that the scattering resonances lie below a cubic curve which is the same as in the case…

We present a spectral method for parabolic partial differential equations with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. The region {\Omega} for the problem is assumed to be simply-connected and bounded, and its boundary is assumed to be a smooth…

Let $(X,g)$ be a complete noncompact geometrically finite surface with pinched negative curvature $-b^2\leq K_g \leq -1$. Let $\lambda_0(\widetilde{X})$ denote the bottom of the $L^2-$spectrum of the Laplacian on the universal cover…

Let $X$ be a closed, connected, oriented surface of genus $g$, with a hyperbolic metric chosen at random according to the Weil--Petersson measure on the moduli space of Riemannian metrics. Let $\lambda_1=\lambda_1(X)$ bethe first non-zero…

In this paper, we study the problem of scattering by several strictly convex obstacles, with smooth boundary and satisfying a non eclipse condition. We show, in dimension 2 only, the existence of a spectral gap for the meromorphic…

We prove that every family of coverings of any infinite-area, convex cocompact hyperbolic surface has uniform spectral gap, provided that the associated Schreier graphs form a family of two-sided expanders. This extends the results of…

We consider the linear water-wave problem in a periodic channel which consists of infinitely many identical containers connected with apertures of width $\epsilon$. Motivated by applications to surface wave propagation phenomena, we study…

In this paper, we investigate uniform spectral gaps for Weil-Petersson random hyperbolic surfaces with not many cusps. We show that if $n=O(g^\alpha)$ where $\alpha\in \left[0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$, then for any $\epsilon>0$, a random cusped…

It is shown that the transparency of opaque material with negative permittivity exhibits resonant behavior. The resonance occurs as a result of the excitation of the surface waves at slab boundaries. Dramatic field amplification of the…

With analytical (generalized Mie scattering) and numerical (integral-equation-based) considerations we show the existence of strong resonances in the scattering response of small spheres with lossless impedance boundary. With increasing…

We prove that if $X$ is a finite area non-compact hyperbolic surface, then for any $\epsilon>0$, with probability tending to one as $n\to\infty$, a uniformly random degree $n$ Riemannian cover of $X$ has no eigenvalues of the Laplacian in…

We establish a spectral gap for resonances of the Laplacian of random Schottky surfaces, which is optimal according to a conjecture of Jakobson and Naud.

In the spirit of Otal and Croke, we prove that a negatively-curved asymptotically hyperbolic surface is boundary distance rigid, where the distance between two points on the boundary at infinity is defined by a renormalized quantity.

Using expander graphs, we construct a sequence of smooth compact surfaces with boundary of perimeter N, and with the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue uniformly bounded away from zero. This answers a question which was raised in [9]. The…

We study the spectrum of complete noncompact manifolds with bounded curvature and positive injectivity radius. We give general conditions which imply that their essential spectrum has an arbitrarily large finite number of gaps. In…
