We develop the complex scaling method for the Dirichlet Laplacian in a domain with asymptotically cylindrical end. We define resonances as discrete eigenvalues of non-selfadjoint operators, obtained as deformations of the selfadjoint Dirichlet Laplacian $Δ$ by means of the complex scaling. The resonances are identified with the poles of the resolvent matrix elements $((Δ-μ)^{-1}F, G)$ meromorphic continuation in $μ$ across the essential spectrum of $Δ$, where $F$ and $G$ are elements of an explicitly given set of partial analytic vectors. It turns out that the Dirichlet Laplacian has no singular continuous spectrum, and its eigenvalues can accumulate only at threshold values of the spectral parameter.
The aim of the paper is to derive spectral estimates on the eigenvalue moments of the magnetic Dirichlet Laplacian defined on the two-dimensional disk with a radially symmetric magnetic field.
We develop the complex scaling for a manifold with an asymptotically cylindrical end under an assumption on the analyticity of the metric with respect to the axial coordinate of the end. We allow for arbitrarily slow convergence of the metric to its limit at infinity, and prove a variant of the Aguilar-Balslev-Combes theorem for the Laplacian $Δ$ on functions. In the case of a manifold with (noncompact) boundary it is either the Dirichlet or the Neumann Laplacian. We introduce resonances as the discrete non-real eigenvalues of non-selfadjoint operators, obtained as deformations of the Laplacia…
We study the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on an unbounded twisted tube with twisting velocity exploding to infinity. If the tube cross section does not intersect the axis of rotation, then its spectrum is purely discrete under some additional conditions on the twisting velocity (D.Krejcirik, 2015). In the current work we prove a Berezin type upper bound for the eigenvalue moments.
We perform quantitative spectral analysis of the self-adjoint Dirichlet Laplacian $\mathsf{H}$ on an unbounded, radially symmetric (generalized) parabolic layer $\mathcal{P}\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. It was known before that $\mathsf{H}$ has an infinite number of eigenvalues below the threshold of its essential spectrum. In the present paper, we find the discrete spectrum asymptotics for $\mathsf{H}$ by means of a consecutive reduction to the analogous asymptotic problem for an effective one-dimensional Schrödinger operator on the half-line with the potential the behaviour of which far away from th…
Inequalities for the eigenvalues of the (negative) Laplacian subject to mixed boundary conditions on polyhedral and more general bounded domains are established. The eigenvalues subject to a Dirichlet boundary condition on a part of the boundary and a Neumann boundary condition on the remainder of the boundary are estimated in terms of either Dirichlet or Neumann eigenvalues. The results complement several classical inequalities between Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues due to Pólya, Payne, Levine and Weinberger, Friedlander, and others.
In this paper, we study eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of $p$-Laplacians with Dirichlet boundary condition on graphs. We characterize the first eigenfunction (and the maximum eigenfunction for a bipartite graph) via the sign condition. By the uniqueness of the first eigenfunction of $p$-Laplacian, as $p\to 1,$ we identify the Cheeger constant of a symmetric graph with that of the quotient graph. By this approach, we calculate various Cheeger constants of spherically symmetric graphs.
By Birman and Skvortsov it is known that if $\Omegasf$ is a planar curvilinear polygon with $n$ non-convex corners then the Laplace operator with domain $H^2(\Omegasf)\cap H^1_0(\Omegasf)$ is a closed symmetric operator with deficiency indices $(n,n)$. Here we provide a Kre\uın-type resolvent formula for any self-adjoint extensions of such an operator, i.e. for the set of self-adjoint non-Friedrichs Dirichlet Laplacians on $\Omegasf$, and show that any element in this set is the norm resolvent limit of a suitable sequence of Friedrichs-Dirichlet Laplacians with $n$ point interactions.
We consider the Calderòn problem in an infinite cylindrical domain, whose cross section is a bounded domain of the plane. We prove log-log stability in the determination of the isotropic periodic conductivity coefficient from partial Dirichlet data and partial Neumann boundary observations of the solution.

This paper is devoted to studying the stability of p-Laplacian wave equations with strong damping in non-cylindrical domains. The method of proof based on some estimates for time-varying coefficients rising from moving boundary and a modified Kormonik inequality. Meanwhile, by selecting appropriate auxiliary functions, finally we obtain the polynomial stability (p > 2) and exponential stability (p = 2) for such systems in some unbounded development domains.
We study the survival probability of a particle diffusing in a two-dimensional domain, bounded by a smooth absorbing boundary. The short-time expansion of this quantity depends on the geometric characteristics of the boundary, whilst its long-time asymptotics is governed by the lowest eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian defined on the domain. We present a simple algorithm for calculation of the short-time expansion for an arbitrary "star-shaped" domain. The coefficients are expressed in terms of powers of boundary curvature, integrated around the circumference of the domain. Based on this ex…
In this paper we continue our study of the Laplacian on manifolds with axial analytic asymptotically cylindrical ends initiated in~arXiv:1003.2538. By using the complex scaling method and the Phragmén-Lindelöf principle we prove exponential decay of the eigenfunctions corresponding to the non-threshold eigenvalues of the Laplacian on functions. In the case of a manifold with (non-compact) boundary it is either the Dirichlet Laplacian or the Neumann Laplacian. We show that the rate of exponential decay of an eigenfunction is prescribed by the distance from the corresponding eigenvalue to the ne…
This paper is dedicated to the classical Hadamard formula for asymptotics of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet-Laplacian under perturbations of the boundary. We prove that the Hadamard formula still holds for $C^1$-domains with $C^1$-perturbations. We also derive an optimal estimate for the remainder term in the $C^{1,α}$-case. Furthermore, if the boundary is merely Lipschitz, we show that the Hadamard formula is not valid.

The existence of at least two solutions to superlinear integral equation in cone is proved using the Krasnosielskii Fixed Point Theorem. The result is applied to the Dirichlet BVPs with the fractional Laplacian.
In the present paper we obtain growth monotonicity estimates of the principal Dirichlet-Laplacian eigenvalue in bounded non-Lipschitz domains. The proposed method is based on composition operators generated by quasiconformal mappings and their applications to weighted Sobolev inequalities.
We prove the attainability of the best constant in the fractional Hardy--Sobolev inequality with boundary singularity for the Spectral Dirichlet Laplacian. The main assumption is the average concavity of the boundary at the origin.
We establish an upper bound of the sum of the eigenvalues for the Dirichlet problem of the fractional Laplacian. Our result is obtained by a subtle computation of the Rayleigh quotient for specific functions.
We prove nonlinear lower bounds and commutator estimates for the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian in bounded domains. The applications include bounds for linear drift-diffusion equations with nonlocal dissipation and global existence of weak solutions of critical surface quasi-geostrophic equations.
We consider an optimal control problem governed by a class of boundary value problem with the spectral Dirichlet fractional Laplacian. Some sufficient condition for the existence of optimal processes is stated. The proof of the main result relies on variational structure of the problem. To show that boundary value problem with the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian has a weak solution we employ the renowned Ky Fan Theorem.
We consider a spectral stability estimate by Burenkov and Lamberti concerning the variation of the eigenvalues of second order uniformly elliptic operators on variable open sets in the N-dimensional euclidean space, and we prove that it is sharp for any dimension N. This is done by studying the eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian on special open sets inscribed in suitable spherical cones.
We study spectral stability estimates of the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian in non-convex domains $Ω\subset\mathbb R^2$. With the help of these estimates we obtain asymptotically sharp inequalities of ratios of eigenvalues in the frameworks of the Payne-Pólya-Weinberger inequalities. These estimates are equivalent to spectral gap estimates of the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian in non-convex domains in terms of conformal (hyperbolic) geometry.
We construct Green functions of Dirichlet boundary value problems for sub-Laplacians on certain unbounded domains of a prototype Heisenberg-type group (prototype H-type group, in short). We also present solutions in an explicit form of the Dirichlet problem for the sub-Laplacian with non-zero boundary datum on half-space, quadrant-space, etc, as well as in a strip.
We consider Dirichlet Laplacian in a thin curved three-dimensional rod. The rod is finite. Its cross-section is constant and small, and rotates along the reference curve in an arbitrary way. We find a two-parametric set of the eigenvalues of such operator and construct their complete asymptotic expansions. We show that this two-parametric set contains any prescribed number of the first eigenvalues of the considered operator. We obtain the complete asymptotic expansions for the eigenfunctions associated with these first eigenvalues.
Local and global properties of minimal solutions for the heat equation generated by the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian negatively perturbed by Hardy's potentials on open subsets of $\R^d$ are analyzed. As a byproduct we obtain instantaneous blow-up of nonnegative solutions in the supercritical case.
We consider the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a domain in R^d and study the effect that performing a scaling in one direction has on the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions as a function of the scaling parameter around zero. This generalizes our previous results in two dimensions and, as in that case, allows us to obtain an approximation for Dirichlet eigenvalues for a large class of domains, under very mild assumptions. As an application, we derive a three--term asymptotic expansion for the first eigenvalue of d-dimensional ellipsoids.
In this paper, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for lower order eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on bounded domains of a Euclidean space which strengthens the well-known Ashbaugh-Beguria inequality conjectured by Payne-Pólya-Weinberger on the ratio of the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues and makes an important step toward the proof of a conjecture by Ashbaugh-Benguria.
In this paper we analyze the asymptotic behavior of the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian $(-Δ_{\mathbb R^{n+k}})^{s}$, with $s\in (0, 1)$, on bounded domains in $\mathbb R^{n+k}$ that become unbounded in the last $k$-directions. A dimension reduction phenomenon is observed and described via $Γ$-convergence.
We present a result of existence of infinitely many solutions for the Dirichlet problem involving the p-Laplacian in annular domains, when $p\leq N$, contouring the failure of compactness of $W^{1,p}(Ω)$ in $C^0(\barΩ)$ applying a variable change.
We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in the half-plane with constant magnetic field. Due to the translational invariance this operator admits a fiber decomposition and a family of dis- persion curves, that are real analytic functions. Each of them is simple and monotically decreasing from positive infinity to a finite value, which is the corresponding Landau level. These finite limits are thresholds in the purely absolutely continuous spectrum of the magnetic Laplacian. We prove a limiting absorption principle for this operator both outside and at the thresholds. Finally, we establish analytic …
We identify explicitly the fractional power spaces for the $L^2$ Dirichlet Laplacian and Dirichlet Stokes operators using the theory of real interpolation. The results are not new, but we hope that our arguments are relatively accessible.
In this paper we study the nonlinear Dirichlet problem involving p(x)-Laplacian (hemivariational inequality) with nonsmooth potential. By using nonsmooth critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals due to Chang and the properties of variational Sobolev spaces, we establish conditions which ensure the existence of solution for our problem.
Given an Euclidean domain with very mild regularity properties, we prove that there exist perturbations of the Dirichlet Laplacian of the form $-(I+S_ε)Δ$ with $\|S_ε\|_{L^2\to L^2}\leq ε$ whose high energy eigenfunctions are quantum uniquely ergodic (QUE). Moreover, if we impose stronger regularity on the domain, the same result holds with $\|S_ε\|_{L^2\to H^γ}\leq ε$ for $γ>0$ depending on the domain. We also give a proof of a local Weyl law for domains with rough boundaries.
We study the relationship between the symbol of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated with a connection Laplacian, and the geometry on and near the boundary. As a consequence, we show that the geometric data on the boundary, and when the dimension of the base is greater than two all corresponding normal derivatives, are determined by the symbol.
In this paper, we prove the upper and lower bounds for normal derivatives of spectral clusters $u=χ_λ^s f$ of Dirichlet Laplacian $Δ_M$, $$c_s λ\|u\|_{L^2(M)} \leq \| \partial_νu \|_{L^2(\partial M)} \leq C_s λ\|u\|_{L^2(M)} $$ where the upper bound is true for any Riemannian manifold, and the lower bound is true for some small $0<s<s_M$, where $s_M$ depends on the manifold only, provided that $M$ has no trapped geodesics (see Theorem \ref{Thm3} for a precise statement), which generalizes the early results for single eigenfunctions by Hassell and Tao.
In the whole space $\mathbb R^d$, linear estimates for heat semi-group in Besov spaces are well established, which are estimates of $L^p$-$L^q$ type, maximal regularity, e.t.c. This paper is concerned with such estimates for semi-group generated by the Dirichlet Laplacian of fractional order in terms of the Besov spaces on an arbitrary open set of $\mathbb R^d$.
We give a direct proof of the sharp two-sided estimates, recently established in [4,9], for the Dirichlet heat kernel of the fractional Laplacian with gradient perturbation in $C^{1, 1}$ open sets by using Duhamel formula. We also obtain a gradient estimate for the Dirichlet heat kernel. Our assumption on the open set is slightly weaker in that we only require $D$ to be $C^{1,θ}$ for some $θ\in (α/2, 1]$.
The article is an attempt to investigate the issues of asymptotic analysis for problems involving fractional Laplacian where the domains tend to become unbounded in one-direction. Motivated from the pioneering work on second order elliptic problems by Chipot and Rougirel, where the force functions are considered on the cross section of domains, we prove the non-local counterpart of their result. Furthermore, recently Yeressian established a weighted estimate for solutions of nonlocal Dirichlet problems which exhibit the asymptotic behavior. The case whens= 1=2 was also treated as an example to…
