As global ocean general circulation models are run at eddy-permitting resolutions, reproducing accurate growth rates of baroclinic instabilities is a major concern when choosing a discretization of the equations of motion. From this…

We investigate the discrete spectrum of the Hamiltonian describing a quantum particle living in the two-dimensional curved strip. We impose the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on opposite sides of the strip. The existence of the…

We shall prove that under some volume growth condition, the essential spectrum of the Laplacian contains the interval $[(n-1)^2K/4, \infty)$ if an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold has an end and the average of the part of the Ricci…

We prove an inequality that generalizes the Fan-Taussky-Todd discrete analog of the Wirtinger inequality. It is equivalent to an estimate on the spectral gap of a weighted discrete Laplacian on the circle. The proof uses a geometric…

We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubular neighbourhoods of complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds immersed in the Euclidean space. We show that the essential spectrum coincides with the spectrum of a planar tube provided that the…

We analyze the buckling of a rigid thin membrane floating on a dense fluid substrate. The interplay of curvature and substrate energy is known to create wrinkling at a characteristic wavelength $\lambda$, which localizes into a fold at…

We derive a number of spectral results for Dirac operators in geometrically nontrivial regions in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^3$ of tube or layer shapes with a zigzag type boundary using the corresponding properties of the Dirichlet…

We make a spectral analysis of discrete Schroedinger operators on the half-line, subject to complex Robin-type boundary couplings and complex-valued potentials. First, optimal spectral enclosures are obtained for summable potentials.…

We generalize Brendle's geometric inequality considered in \cite{B} to static manifolds. The inequality bounds the integral of inverse mean curvature of an embedded mean-convex hypersurface by geometric data of the horizon. As a…

We study Hardy-type inequalities associated to the quadratic form of the shifted Laplacian $-\Delta_{\mathbb H^N}-(N-1)^2/4$ on the hyperbolic space ${\mathbb H}^N$, $(N-1)^2/4$ being, as it is well-known, the bottom of the $L^2$-spectrum…

Let P be a linear, second order, elliptic operator satisfying a Hardy inequality with potential W (i.e. $P-W\geq0$) and best constant $\alpha$. We give conditions so that the spectrum of $W^{-1}P$ is $[\alpha,\infty)$. We apply this to…

We extend the celebrated rigidity of the sharp first spectral gap under $Ric\ge0$ to compact infinitesimally Hilbertian spaces with non-negative (weak, also called synthetic) Ricci curvature and bounded (synthetic) dimension i.e. to…

The Hardy Inequality (HI) for potentials with countably many singularities of the form $V=\sum_{k\in \mathbf{Z}}\frac{1}{|x-a_k|^2}$ is not a trivial issue. In principle, the more singular poles are, the less the Hardy constant is: it is…

Nature is intrinsically heterogeneous, and remarkable phenomena can only be observed in the presence of intrinsically nonlinear heterogeneities. Spontaneous pattern formation in nature has fascinated humankind for centuries, and the…

We investigate the existence of closed planar loops with prescribed curvature. Our approach is variational, and relies on a Hardy type inequality and its associated functional space.

We prove a rigidity result for certain critical Z/2 eigensections of the Laplacian on S^2 associated to a flat real line bundle determined by a branch-point configuration. More precisely, we show that every minimal non-degenerate critical…

We consider three-dimensional Einstein gravity in Euclidean signature with a finite boundary of torus topology endowed with an induced metric of fixed conformal class and a constant trace of extrinsic curvature $K$. For vanishing, positive,…

We study fine properties of the principal frequency of clamped plates in the (possibly singular) setting of metric measure spaces verifying the RCD(0,N) condition, i.e., infinitesimally Hilbertian spaces with non-negative Ricci curvature…

Rayleigh-Bloch waves are guided acoustic waves propagating along a periodic line of inclusions placed inside an open, infinite medium. Below the sound cone, they are transversely evanescent on both sides of the line of inclusions. Guidance…

Consider two domains connected by a thin tube: it can be shown that the resolvent of the Dirichlet Laplacian is continuous with respect to the channel section parameter. This in particular implies the continuity of isolated simple…
