In this paper we deal with spectral optimization for the Robin Laplacian on a family of planar domains admitting parallel coordinates, namely a fixed-width strip built over a smooth closed curve and the exterior of a convex set with a smooth boundary. We show that if the curve length is kept fixed, the first eigenvalue referring to the fixed-width strip is for any value of the Robin parameter maximized by a circular annulus. Furthermore, we prove that the second eigenvalue in the exterior of a convex domain $Omega$ corresponding to a negative Robin parameter does not exceed the analogous quantity for a disk whose boundary has a curvature larger than or equal to the maximum of that for $partialOmega$.
Let $Omega$ be a curvilinear polygon and $Q^gamma_{Omega}$ be the Laplacian in $L^2(Omega)$, $Q^gamma_{Omega}psi=-Delta psi$, with the Robin boundary condition $partial_ u psi=gamma psi$, where $partial_ u$ is the outer normal derivative and $gamma>0$. We are interested in the behavior of the eigenvalues of $Q^gamma_Omega$ as $gamma$ becomes large. We prove that the asymptotics of the first eigenvalues of $Q^gamma_Omega$ is determined at the leading order by those of model operators associated with the vertices: the Robin Laplacians acting on the tangent sectors associated with $partial Omega$. In the particular case of a polygon with straight edges the first eigenpairs are exponentially close to those of the model operators. Finally, we prove a Weyl asymptotics for the eigenvalue counting function of $Q^gamma_Omega$ for a threshold depending on $gamma$, and show that the leading term is the same as for smooth domains.
For a bounded corner domain $Omega$, we consider the Robin Laplacian in $Omega$ with large Robin parameter. Exploiting multiscale analysis and a recursive procedure, we have a precise description of the mechanism giving the ground state of the spectrum. It allows also the study of the bottom of the essential spectrum on the associated tangent structures given by cones. Then we obtain the asymptotic behavior of the principal eigenvalue for this singular limit in any dimension, with remainder estimates. The same method works for the Schrodinger operator in $mathbb{R}^n$ with a strong attractive delta-interaction supported on $partialOmega$. Applications to some Erhlings type estimates and the analysis of the critical temperature of some superconductors are also provided.
We study Riesz means of the eigenvalues of the Heisenberg Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains. We obtain an inequality with a sharp leading term and an additional lower order term, improving the result of Hanson and Laptev.
We study the eigenvalues of the Laplacian with a strong attractive Robin boundary condition in curvilinear polygons. It was known from previous works that the asymptotics of several first eigenvalues is essentially determined by the corner openings, while only rough estimates were available for the next eigenvalues. Under some geometric assumptions, we go beyond the critical eigenvalue number and give a precise asymptotics of any individual eigenvalue by establishing a link with an effective Schrodinger-type operator on the boundary of the domain with boundary conditions at the corners.
We discuss several geometric conditions guaranteeing the finiteness or the infiniteness of the discrete spectrum for Robin Laplacians on conical domains.
