Minimization of the k-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian

D Bucur - Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 2012 - Springer
For every k ∈ N, we prove the existence of a quasi-open set minimizing the k-th eigenvalue
of the Dirichlet Laplacian among all sets of prescribed Lebesgue measure. Moreover, we …

Dirichlet boundary conditions. This problem corresponds to finding the ellipse centred at the …

Comparing the spectrum of Schrödinger operators on quantum graphs

P Bifulco, J Kerner - Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2024 - ams.org
We study Schrödinger operators on compact finite metric graphs subject to $\delta $-
coupling and standard boundary conditions. We compare the $ n $-th eigenvalues of those …

On the lowest eigenvalue of Laplace operators with mixed boundary conditions

H Kovařík - The Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2014 - Springer
In this paper we consider a Robin-type Laplace operator on bounded domains. We study the
dependence of its lowest eigenvalue on the boundary conditions and its asymptotic …
