D Jakobson, N Nadirashvili, J Toth - Russian Mathematical …, 2001 - iopscience.iop.org
We give an overview of some new and old results on geometric properties of eigenfunctions
of Laplacians on Riemannian manifolds. We discuss properties of nodal sets and critical …

Local and global analysis of eigenfunctions

S Zelditch - arXiv preprint arXiv:0903.3420, 2009 - arxiv.org
This is a survey on eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on Riemannian manifolds (mainly
compact and without boundary). We discuss both local results obtained by analyzing …

Counting nodal lines which touch the boundary of an analytic domain

JA Toth, S Zelditch - Journal of Differential Geometry, 2009 - projecteuclid.org
We consider the zeros on the boundary∂ Ω of a Neumann eigenfunction ϕλj of a real
analytic plane domain Ω. We prove that the number of its boundary zeros is O (λj) where−∆ …

Neumann domains on graphs and manifolds

L Alon, R Band, M Bersudsky… - Analysis and Geometry on …, 2020 - books.google.com
A Laplacian eigenfunction on a manifold or a metric graph imposes a natural partition of the
manifold or the graph. This partition is determined by the gradient vector field of the …

Number of nodal domains and singular points of eigenfunctions of negatively curved surfaces with an isometric involution

J Jung, S Zelditch - Journal of Differential Geometry, 2016 - projecteuclid.org
We prove two types of nodal results for density $1 $ subsequences of an orthonormal basis
$\{\phi_j\} $ of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a negatively curved compact surface $(M …

An introduction to the study of critical points of solutions of elliptic and parabolic equations

R Magnanini - arXiv preprint arXiv:1604.00530, 2016 - arxiv.org
We give a survey at an introductory level of old and recent results in the study of critical
points of solutions of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. To keep the …

Eigenfunctions with infinitely many isolated critical points

L Buhovsky, A Logunov, M Sodin - International Mathematics …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
We construct a Riemannian metric on the 2D torus, such that for infinitely many eigenvalues
of the Laplace–Beltrami operator, a corresponding eigenfunction has infinitely many isolated …

Eigenfunctions with prescribed nodal sets

A Enciso, D Peralta-Salas - Journal of Differential Geometry, 2015 - projecteuclid.org
In this paper we consider the problem of prescribing the nodal set of low-energy
eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Our main result is that, given any separating closed …
