Bounds for the Least Laplacian Eigenvalue of a Signed Graph

A signed graph is a graph with a sign attached to each edge. This paper extends some fundamental concepts of the Laplacian matrices from graphs to signed graphs. In particular, the relationships between the least Laplacian eigenvalue and the unbalancedness of a signed graph are investigated.     

Harmonic Calculus on Fractals - A Measure Geometric Approach I

Differentiation of functions w.r.t. finite atomless measures with compact support on the real line is introduced. The related harmonic calculus is similar to that of the classical Lebesgue case. As an application we obtain the Weyl exponent for the spectral asymptotics of the Laplacians w.r.t. linear Cantor-type measures with arbitrary weights.

Precise bounds and asymptotics for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of triangles and rhombi

We study the asymptotic expansion of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of certain families of triangles and of rhombi as a singular limit is approached. In certain cases, which include isosceles and right triangles, we obtain the exact value of all the coefficients of the unbounded terms in the asymptotic expansion as the angle opening approaches zero, plus the constant term and estimates on the remainder. For rhombi and other triangle families such as isosceles triangles where now the angle opening approaches π, we have the first two terms plus bounds on the remainder. These results are based on new upper and lower bounds for these domains whose asymptotic expansions coincide up to the orders mentioned. Apart from being accurate near the singular limits considered, our lower bounds for the rhombus improve upon the bound by Hooker and Protter for angles up to approximately 22° and in the range (31°,54°). These results also show that the asymptotic expansion around the degenerate case of the isosceles triangle with vanishing angle opening depends on the path used to approach it.     

Semi-classical limit of the bottom of spectrum of a Schrödinger operator on a path space over a compact Riemannian manifold

We determine the limit of the bottom of spectrum of Schrödinger operators with variable coefficients on Wiener spaces and path spaces over finite-dimensional compact Riemannian manifolds in the semi-classical limit. These are extensions of the results in [S. Aida, Semiclassical limit of the lowest eigenvalue of a Schrödinger operator on a Wiener space, J. Funct. Anal. 203 (2) (2003) 401-424]. The problem on path spaces over Riemannian manifolds is considered as a problem on Wiener spaces by using Ito's map. However the coefficient operator is not a bounded linear operator and the dependence on the path is not continuous in the uniform convergence topology if the Riemannian curvature tensor on the underling manifold is not equal to 0. The difficulties are solved by using unitary transformations of the Schrödinger operators by approximate ground state functions and estimates in the rough path analysis.

The Physical Basis of the VSEPR Model

The VSEPR model is a consequence of the correlation of same-spin electrons resulting from the operation of the Pauli exclusion principle. Although the VSEPR rules can be interpreted in terms of an orbital model they do not provide the physical basis for the model.     

Regularity of Viscosity Solutions of the Biased Infinity Laplacian Equation

In this paper, we are interested in the regularity estimates of the nonnegative viscosity super solution of the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation $$∆^β_∞u = 0,$$ where $β ∈ \mathbb{R}$ is a fixed constant and $∆^β_∞u := ∆^N_∞u + β|Du|,$ which arises from the random game named biased tug-of-war. By studying directly the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation, we construct the appropriate exponential cones as barrier functions to establish a key estimate. Based on this estimate, we obtain the Harnack inequality, Hopf boundary point lemma, Lipschitz estimate and the Liouville property etc.     

Curvature invariants, differential operators and local homogeneity

We first prove that a Riemannian manifold with globally constant additive Weyl invariants is locally homogeneous. Then we use this result to show that a manifold whose Laplacian commutes with all invariant differential operators is a locally homogeneous space.
