We study the spectral zeta functions of the Laplacian on fractal sets which are locally self-similar fractafolds, in the sense of Strichartz. These functions are known to meromorphically extend to the entire complex plane, and the locations…

We give upper bounds on the eigenvalues of the differential form Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold. The proof uses Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below. We also construct differential form Laplacians on Alexandrov spaces.…

We prove that, given any knot $\gamma$ in a compact 3-manifold M, there exists a Riemannian metric on M such that there is a complex-valued eigenfunction u of the Laplacian, corresponding to the first nontrivial eigenvalue, whose nodal set…

We develop eigenvalue estimates for the Laplacians on discrete and metric graphs using different types of boundary conditions at the vertices of the metric graph. Via an explicit correspondence of the equilateral metric and discrete graph…

Ten sharp lower estimates of the first non-trivial eigenvalue of Laplacian on compact Riemannian manifolds are reviewed and compared. An improved variational formula, a general common estimate, and a new sharp one are added. The best lower…

Let M be a closed compact n-dimensional manifold with n odd. We calculate the first and second variations of the zeta-regularized determinants det^\prime\Lambda and det L as the metric on M varies, where \Delta denotes the Laplacian on…

In this paper, we first give a convenient formula for bi-Laplacian on a sphere and the complete description of its eigenvalues, buckling eigenvalues, and their corresponding eigenfunctions. We then show that the radial (or rotationally…

On a given closed connected manifold of dimension two, or greater, we consider the squared $L^2$-norm of the scalar curvature functional over the space of constant volume Riemannian metrics. We prove that its critical points have constant…

We investigate stability and local minimizing properties of the Riemannian functional defined by the L^p norm of the curvature tensor on the space of Riemannian metrics on a closed manifold. Riemannian metrics with constant curvature and…

We show that any generalised smooth distribution on a smooth manifold, possibly of non-constant rank, admits a Riemannian metric. Using such a metric, we attach a Laplace operator to any smooth distribution as such. When the underlying…

We study Laplace eigenvalues $\lambda_k$ on K\"ahler manifolds as functionals on the space of K\"ahler metrics with cohomologous K\"ahler forms. We introduce a natural notion of a $\lambda_k$-extremal K\"ahler metric and obtain necessary…

For each degree p, we construct on any closed manifold a family of Riemannian metrics, with fixed volume such that any positive eigenvalues of the rough and Hodge Laplacians acting on differential p-forms converge to zero. In particular, on…

We consider a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and a metric that is singular at the boundary. The associated Laplace-Beltrami operator is of the form of a Grushin operator plus a singular potential. In a supercritical parameter…

This paper concerns the concentration of Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact two-dimensional Riemannian manifold with strictly geodesically concave boundary. We link three inequalities which bound the concentration in…

We study the Laplacian on a metrized graph, and its eigenfunctions.

We study transnormal and isoparametric functions on closed Riemannian 4-manifolds and establish fundamental restrictions on their topology and geometry. In particular, we show that such manifolds cannot be endowed with negatively curved…

In this paper, we present a novel approach to investigate the existence of multiple critical points for a class of nonsmooth functionals. This method provides a robust framework to analyze the existence of solutions for problems involving…

We investigate rigidity and stability properties of critical points of quadratic curvature functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics. We show it is possible to "gauge" the Euler-Lagrange equations, in a self-adjoint fashion, to become…

In this paper, we study the overdetermined problem for the p-Laplacian equation on a compact Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature. By introducing a new P-function which is related to the first nonzero eigenvalue for…

A spherical conical metric $g$ on a surface $\Sigma$ is a metric of constant curvature $1$ with finitely many isolated conical singularities. The uniformization problem for such metrics remains largely open when at least one of the cone…
