This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of the principal eigenvalue $\lambda(D)$ of the elliptic eigenvalue problem \[ -D\Delta_{M}u - a\langle \nabla_M f, \nabla_M u\rangle_g + c u = \lambda(D)u, \] posed on a closed orientable Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, in the small-diffusion limit $D \to 0^+$. Under the assumption that $f$ is a Morse function on $M$, we establish that the limiting value $\lim_{D\to 0}\lambda(D)$ is completely characterized by the critical points of $f$ and the associated Riemannian Hessian, specifically through the values of $c$ and the Riemannian Hessian eigenvalues at those points.
For immersions of a closed $2h$-dimensional manifold $\Sigma$ into $\mathbb R^m$, we consider curvature energies that are invariant under ambient isometries and dilations, with the principal term $\int_{\Sigma} \big|\nabla^{(h-1)} \vec{\mathrm{I\!I}}\big|_g^2\,d\text{vol}_g$ and lower-order submanifold invariants. Foll...
We study the quadrature surface free boundary problem on a compact Riemannian manifold $(\M,g)$ of dimension $N \geq 2$. Given a positive source $f \in L^2_g(\M)$ with compact support $K$, and $k>0$, one seeks a domain $\Omega \supset K$ on which the overdetermined problem $-\Delta_g u = f$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ and $|\na...
We establish interior maximal $L^{q_c}$-regularity for bounded strong solutions of $u_t-\Delta u+|Du|^\gamma=f$ in $\mathbb{T}^d\times(0,T)$, where $d\geq 2$, $\gamma>2$, and $q_c=(d+2)(\gamma-1)/\gamma$. The estimates are uniform for uniformly bounded families of solutions whose source terms range over a bounded, unif...
We establish local Hamilton-type gradient estimates for positive $C^{2,1}$ solutions of $u_t=\Delta u^m$ on complete Riemannian manifolds whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below. For every fixed $m>1$ and every fixed $0<m<1$, there exist $\beta=\beta(m,n)>0$ and $C=C(m,n)>0$ such that a solution $0<u\leqslant A$ in...
In this paper, let $u\in C^4(B_{10})$ with $D^2u\geq -KI$ define a $2$-admissible graph $M=\{(x,u(x)):x\in B_{10}\}\subset\R^{n+1}$ satisfying \[ \sigma_2(\kappa[u])=f(x). \] We prove an interior curvature estimate depending on the Lipschitz norm of the right-hand sides. The proof combines a shifted Jacobi inequality f...
We study spectral and variational properties of the (possibly) fractional Dirichlet Laplacian $\left(-\Delta_{n+k}\right)^s\!$, $s>0$, on bounded subsets of $\mathbb R^n\times\mathbb R^k$ whose extent in one or more directions becomes much larger than in the remaining ones. We first investigate the asymptotic behaviour...
