The fundamental gap is the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator (and the Laplacian, in particular). For horoconvex domains in hyperbolic space, Nguyen, Stancu and Wei conjectured that it is…
We prove the Fundamental Gap Conjecture, which states that the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues (the spectral gap) of a Schr\"odinger operator with convex potential and Dirichlet boundary data on a convex domain is…
In their celebrated work, B. Andrews and J. Clutterbuck proved the fundamental gap (the difference between the first two eigenvalues) conjecture for convex domains in the Euclidean space and conjectured similar results holds for spaces with…
The fundamental gap of a domain is the difference between the first two eigenvalues of the Laplace operator. In a series of recent and celebrated works, it was shown that for convex domains in $\mathbb R^n$ and $\mathbb S^n$ with Dirichlet…
Our main result is that if a generic convex domain in $\R^n$ collapses to a domain in $\R^{n-1}$, then the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Euclidean Laplacian, known as the fundamental gap, diverges. The…
We study the hot spots conjecture for domains in the Gaussian space $(\mathbb{R}^n, (2\pi)^{-n/2} e^{-|x|^2/2} dx)$ for $n \ge 2$. Given a bounded domain $\Omega$ with a piecewise smooth boundary, we consider the first nontrivial…
The fundamental gap conjecture was recently proven by Andrews and Clutterbuck: for any convex domain in $\R^n$ normalized to have unit diameter, the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian is bounded below by…
We give a new lower bound for the first gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ of the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Schr{\"o}dinger operator on a bounded convex domain $\Omega$ in R$^n$ or S$^n$ and greatly sharpens the previous estimates. The new…
The fundamental gap conjecture proved by Andrews and Clutterbuck in 2011 provides the sharp lower bound for the difference between the first two Dirichlet Laplacian eigenvalues in terms of the diameter of a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^N$. The…
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…
In [SWW], S. Seto, L. Wang and G. Wei proved that the gap between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of a convex domain in the unit sphere is at least as large as that for an associated operator on an interval with the same diameter,…
Motivated by an example of Shih, we compute the fundamental gap of a family of convex domains in the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb H^2$, showing that for some of them $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1 < \frac{3\pi^2}{D^2}$, where $D$ is the diameter of…
For the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on convex domains in $\mathbb H^n$, $n\geq 2$, we prove that the product of the fundamental gap with the square of the diameter can be arbitrarily small for domains of any…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a strictly convex domain with smooth boundary and diameter $D$. The fundamental gap conjecture claims that if $V:\bar\Omega\to\mathbb{R}$ is convex, then the spectral gap of the Schr\"odinger operator…
In this paper we establish a gap theorem for the complex geometry of smoothly bounded convex domains which informally says that if the complex geometry near the boundary is close to the complex geometry of the unit ball, then the domain…
We consider the Laplace-Beltrami operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on convex domains in a Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$, and prove that the product of the fundamental gap with the square of the diameter can be arbitrarily small…
The main result of this paper is a sharp upper bound on the first positive eigenvalue of Dirac operators in two dimensional simply connected $C^3$-domains with infinite mass boundary conditions. This bound is given in terms of a conformal…
We obtain Gaussian upper bounds for heat kernels of higher order differential operators with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains in $\R^N$. The bounds exhibit explicitly the nature of the spatial decay of the heat kernel close…
We show that for every $n \geq 2$ and $D > 0$ there exist a convex domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb H^n$ with diameter $D$ and a convex potential $V$ on $\Omega$ such that the fundamental gap of the operator $-\Delta+V$ is strictly smaller…
We show that, for horoconvex domains in the hyperbolic space, the product of their fundamental gap with the square of their diameter has no positive lower bound. The result follows from the study of the fundamental gap of geodesic balls as…
