The Faber-Krahn deficit $\delta\lambda$ of an open bounded set $\Omega$ is the normalized gap between the values that the first Dirichlet Laplacian eigenvalue achieves on $\Omega$ and on the ball having same measure as $\Omega$. For any…

Polygon spaces have been studied extensively, and yet missing from the literature is a simple property that every polygon has: dimension. This is distinct (possibly) from the dimension of the ambient space in which the polygon lives. A…

We consider an elastic manifold of internal dimension $d$ and length $L$ pinned in a $N$ dimensional random potential and confined by an additional parabolic potential of curvature $\mu$. We are interested in the mean spectral density…

For any integer $n\geq 2$, we prove that for any large enough integer $d$, with large probability the injectivity radius of a random degree $d$ complex hypersurface in $\C P^n$ is larger than $d^{-\frac{1}2(3n+2)}$. Here the hypersurface is…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $$-\frac{d^2}{d x^2} + V \qquad \mbox{on an interval}~~[a,b]~\mbox{with Dirichlet boundary conditions},$$ where $V$ is bounded from below and prove a lower bound on the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ in…

Let $(M^{n}, g)$ be a closed connected Einstein space, $n=dim M ,$ and $\kappa_{0} $ be the lower bound of the sectional curvature. In this paper, we prove Udo Simon's conjecture: on closed Einstein spaces, $n\geq 3,$ there is no eigenvalue…

We introduce the $R$ cut-off covering spectrum and the cut-off covering spectrum of a complete length space or Riemannian manifold. The spectra measure the sizes of localized holes in the space and are defined using covering spaces called…

We discuss the definition and measurability questions of random fractals and find under certain conditions a formula for upper and lower Minkowski dimensions. For the case of a random self-similar set we obtain the packing dimension.

It is proved that the set of scattering amplitudes $\{A(\beta, \alpha, k)\}_{\forall \alpha \in S^2}$, known for all $\beta\in S^2$, where $S^2$ is the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^3$, $k>0$ is fixed, $k^2$ is not a Dirichlet eigenvalue of…

Let $\lambda_2(G)$ and $\kappa'(G)$ be the second largest eigenvalue and the edge-connectivity of a graph $G$, respectively. Let $d$ be a positive integer at least 3. For $t=1$ or 2, Cioaba proved sharp upper bounds for $\lambda_2(G)$ in a…

Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. Let b>0 be the number of connected components of its boundary. For manifolds of dimension at least 3, we prove that it is possible to obtain an arbitrarily large (b+1)-th Steklov…

A key quantity that occurs in the error analysis of several numerical methods for eigenvalue problems is the distance between the eigenvalue of interest and the next nearest eigenvalue. When we are interested in the smallest or fundamental…

We provide bounds on the sizes of the gaps -- defined broadly -- in the set $\{k_1\beta_1 + \ldots + k_n\beta_n \mbox{ (mod 1)} : k_i \in \mathbb Z \cap (0,Q^\frac{1}{n}]\}$ for generic $\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_n \in \mathbb R^m$ and all…

We define generic ensembles of infinite trees. These are limits as $N\to\infty$ of ensembles of finite trees of fixed size $N$, defined in terms of a set of branching weights. Among these ensembles are those supported on trees with vertices…

Let $\Lb$ be a lattice in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $E$ and let $\Lb'$ be a Minkowskian sublattice of $\Lb$, that is, a sublattice having a basis made of representatives for the Minkowski successive minima of $\Lb$. We consider the…

We investigate the dimension of the set of points in the d-torus which have the property that their orbit under rotation by some alpha hits a fixed closed target A more often than expected for all finite initial portions. An upper bound for…

Consider a 2-plane $P \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ and let $D$ be a bounded region in $P$ with a piecewise-smooth boundary. Let $I(D)$ be the infimum of areas of all piecewise-smooth isotropic surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with the same boundary as…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonempty boundary and $n\geq 2$. Assume that ${\mathrm{Ric}(M)\ge (n-1)K}$ for some ${K>0}$ and that $\partial M$ has nonnegative mean curvature with respect to the outward…

For Riemannian submersions, we establish some estimates for the spectrum of the total space in terms of the spectrum of the base space and the geometry of the fibers. In particular, for Riemannian submersions of complete manifolds with…

We study the $L^2$ spectral gap of a large system of strongly coupled diffusions on unbounded state space and subject to a double-well potential. This system can be seen as a spatially discrete approximation of the stochastic Allen-Cahn…
