چکیده

We consider Laplace operators and Schrödinger operators with potentials containing curvature on certain regions of nontrivial topology, especially closed curves, annular domains, and shells. Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed on any boundaries. Under suitable assumptions we prove that the fundamental eigenvalue is maximized when the geometry is round. We also comment on the use of coordinate transformations for these operators and mention some open problems. c ©1998 by the authors.

Isoperimetric Inequalities for the Eigenvalues of Natural Schrödinger Operators on Surfaces

This paper deals with eigenvalue optimization problems for a family of natural Schrödinger operators arising in some geometrical or physical contexts. These operators, whose potentials are quadratic in curvature, are considered on closed surfaces immersed in space forms and we look for geometries that maximize the eigenvalues. We show that under suitable assumptions on the potential, the first ...

Nonlocal Robin Laplacians and Some Remarks on a Paper by Filonov

The aim of this paper is twofold: First, we characterize an essentially optimal class of boundary operators Θ which give rise to self-adjoint Laplacians −∆Θ,Ω in L (Ω; dx) with (nonlocal and local) Robin-type boundary conditions on bounded Lipschitz domains Ω ⊂ R, n ∈ N, n ≥ 2. Second, we extend Friedlander’s inequalities between Neumann and Dirichlet Laplacian eigenvalues to those between nonl...

Eigenvalue Bounds for Schrödinger Operators with Complex Potentials. Iii

We discuss the eigenvalues Ej of Schrödinger operators −∆ + V in L(R) with complex potentials V ∈ L, p < ∞. We show that (A) ReEj → ∞ implies ImEj → 0, and (B) ReEj → E ∈ [0,∞) implies (ImEj) ∈ l for some q depending on p. We prove quantitative versions of (A) and (B) in terms of the L-norm of V .

Inverse Eigenvalue Problems for Perturbed Spherical Schrödinger Operators

We investigate the eigenvalues of perturbed spherical Schrödinger operators under the assumption that the perturbation q(x) satisfies xq(x) ∈ L1(0, 1). We show that the square roots of eigenvalues are given by the square roots of the unperturbed eigenvalues up to an decaying error depending on the behavior of q(x) near x = 0. Furthermore, we provide sets of spectral data which uniquely determin...

Eigenvalue Bounds for the Fractional Laplacian: a Review

We review some recent results on eigenvalues of fractional Laplacians and fractional Schrödinger operators. We discuss, in particular, Lieb–Thirring inequalities and their generalizations, as well as semi-classical asymptotics.
