On the location of spectral edges in $\mathbb{Z}$-periodic media
Periodic $2$nd order ordinary differential operators on $\R$ are known to have the edges of their spectra to occur only at the spectra of periodic and antiperiodic boundary value problems.

Reaction-diffusion problems on time-dependent Riemannian manifolds: stability of periodic solutions
We investigate the stability of time-periodic solutions of semilinear parabolic problems with Neumann boundary conditions. Such problems are posed on compact submanifolds evolving periodically in time.

Isoperimetric inequalities for some integral operators arising in potential theory [PDF]
In this paper we review our previous isoperimetric results for the logarithmic potential and Newton potential operators. The main reason why the results are useful, beyond the intrinsic interest of geometric extremum problems, is that they produce a ...

On the torsion function with Robin or Dirichlet boundary conditions
For $p\in (1,+\infty)$ and $b \in (0, +\infty]$ the $p$-torsion function with Robin boundary conditions associated to an arbitrary open set $\Om \subset \R^m$ satisfies formally the equation $-\Delta_p =1$ in $\Om$ and $|\nabla u|^{p-2} \frac{\partial u}{

On Courant's nodal domain property for linear combinations of eigenfunctions, Part I [PDF]
According to Courant's theorem, an eigenfunction as\-sociated with the $n$-th eigenvalue $\lambda\_n$ has at most $n$ nodal domains. A footnote in the book of Courant and Hilbert, states that the same assertion is true for any linear combination of ...

On the number of nodal domains of the 2D isotropic quantum harmonic oscillator -- an extension of results of A. Stern -- [PDF]
In the case of the sphere and the square, Antonie Stern (1925) claimed in her PhD thesis the existence of an infinite sequence of eigenvalues whose corresponding eigenspaces contain an eigenfunction with two nodal domains. These two statements were given

Boundedness of maximal functions on non-doubling manifolds with ends
Let $M$ be a manifold with ends constructed in \cite{GS} and $\Delta$ be the Laplace-Beltrami operator on $M$. In this note, we show the weak type $(1,1)$ and $L^p$ boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function and of the maximal function ...

Domain deformations and eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian in a Riemannian manifold [PDF]
For any bounded regular domain $\Omega$ of a real analytic Riemannian manifold $M$, we denote by $\lambda_{k}(\Omega)$ the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian of $\Omega$.
