Eigenvalues of Laplacian and eigenvalues of curvature operator
Let $(M^n,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold (without boundary). The symmetries of the curvature $R$ of (the Levi-Civita connection associated to) $g$ allow one to realise $R$ as a self-adjoint (...

Spectrum of Laplace-Beltrami with piecewise constant coefficients
By the Laplace-Beltrami with piecewise constant coefficients I means the operator $-div (f\, \nabla .)$ in the 2-sphere. Where $f$ is a piecewise constant function that takes two values $1$ and $a>...

Laplacian eigenvalue problem for systems coupled along the boundary
I am looking for references on eigenvalue problems for systems of the following type:
Let $\Omega$ be the region enclosed by a right triangle with legs $\Gamma_1$, $\Gamma_2$, and hypotenuse $\...

First eigenvalue of the spherical cap
Let $S$ be the round $n$-sphere of radius $R$ in Euclidean space, and let $r$ be the intrinsic distance from the north pole. Further, let $U(r)$ be the spherical cap of intrinsic radius r. (So $U(0)$ ...

Eigenvalues of Laplace operator
Assume that $(M,g)$ is a Riemannian manifold.
Is there any relation between the sequence of eigenvalues of Laplace operator acting on the space of smooth functions and the sequence of eigenvalues of ...
