Spectral problems with the wrong sign on the Poincaré disk
Let $\mathbb{D}$ denote the open unit disk in $\mathbb{C}$ equipped with the Poincaré metric $g$ of negative scalar curvature $-1$. Denote by $\Delta_g = \mathrm{Tr}_g(\nabla^g d) = - d^{\ast_g} d$ ...

Controlling the Second Eigenvalue of a Schrödinger Operator
Consider a bounded domain $\Omega$ (with smooth boundary) in some Riemannian $n$-manifold $M^n$.
Let $L$ be the operator
$$
L=\Delta+V
$$
where $\Delta$ is the Laplace-beltrami operator on $M$ (so is ...

Convergence of metric and eigenvalues on a tubular neighbourhood
Background:
Consider the sphere $S^2$ with the round metric $g$ and let $\gamma$ be one half of a great circle of length $\pi.$ Let $T_\epsilon$ denote a geodesically convex tube around $\gamma$ of ...

Log of heat kernel for positive time
A well-known theorem by Varadhan relates the logarithm of the heat kernel on a manifold and the geodesic distance function. In particular, if $d(x,y)$ is geodesic distance from $x$ to $y$ and $p(t,x,...

One question about Schrodinger Semigroups-(B. Simon)
This question comes from the paper: B. Simon, Schrodinger Semigroups, Bull. A.M.S., (1982) Vol. 7 (3).
On the Theorem C.3.4(subsolution estimate) of the paper, it says that: Let $Hu=Eu$ and $u\in L^...

Convergence of metric implies convergence of eigenvalues?
Consider the metric $g_\varepsilon=d\theta^2 + \varepsilon^2 \sin(\theta)^2 \, d\varphi^2$ on the hemisphere $S^2_+.$ I had two naive questions:
Does $g_\varepsilon$ converge to the flat metric on ...

Hessian estimates of eigenfunctions without Bochner
let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. Consider the Dirichlet eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Laplacian on $\Omega$, that are, the $\lambda_i>0$ and $\phi_i\in H^{1}_0(...
