چکیده

We reduce the calculation of the eigenvalues of an elliptic operator defined on a closed and bounded surface in R to the solution of an elliptic eigenvalue problem in divergence form in R via separation of variables and estimates from semi-classical analysis. By representing the surface implicitly, we solve the latter problem using standard finite element methods on a regular mesh. In an appendix, we discuss the application of these ideas to solving parabolic equations on surfaces and provide a new proof of a result from [GR].

A Level-Set Method for Computing the Eigenvalues of Elliptic Operators Defined on Compact Hypersurfaces

Abstract We demonstrate, through separation of variables and estimates from the semiclassical analysis of the Schrödinger operator, that the eigenvalues of an elliptic operator defined on a compact hypersurface in Rn can be found by solving an elliptic eigenvalue problem in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ Rn. The latter problem is solved using standard finite element methods on the Cartesian grid. We also...

The spectral properties of differential operators with matrix coefficients on elliptic systems with boundary conditions

Let $$(Lv)(t)=sum^{n} _{i,j=1} (-1)^{j} d_{j} left( s^{2alpha}(t) b_{ij}(t) mu(t) d_{i}v(t)right),$$ be a non-selfadjoint differential operator on the Hilbert space $L_{2}(Omega)$ with Dirichlet-type boundary conditions. In continuing of papers [10-12], let the conditions made on the operator $ L$ be sufficiently more general than [11] and [12] as defined in Section $1$. In this paper, we estim...

Asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues of the elliptic operator system

Since the theory of spectral properties of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces is an important field in mathematics, therefore, different techniques are used to study them. In this paper, two types of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces are considered and their spectral properties are investigated with two different and new techniques.

Efficient elliptic curve cryptosystems

Elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) are new generations of public key cryptosystems that have a smaller key size for the same level of security. The exponentiation on elliptic curve is the most important operation in ECC, so when the ECC is put into practice, the major problem is how to enhance the speed of the exponentiation. It is thus of great interest to develop algorithms for exponentiation...
