چکیده
We prove sharp upper and lower bounds for the nodal length of Steklov eigenfunctions on real-analytic Riemannian surfaces with boundary. The argument involves frequency function methods for harmonic functions in the interior of the surface as well as the construction of exponentially accurate approximations for the Steklov eigenfunctions near the boundary.

Local and Global Analysis of Eigenfunctions on Riemannian Manifolds
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 eigenfunctions on small balls, and global results obtained by wave equation methods. Among the main topics are nodal sets, quantum limits, and L norms of global eigenfunctions. The emphasis is on the connection between the behavio...
متن کاملA Local Volume Estimate for Nodal Domains of Laplace Eigenfunctions
Let M either be a closed real analytic Riemannian manifold or a closed C∞-Riemannian surface. We estimate from below the volume of a nodal domain component in an arbitrary ball, provided that this component enters the ball deeply enough. The proof combines a generalized form of Hadamard’s Three Circles Theorem due to Nadirashvili, Rapid Growth of Eigenfunctions in Narrow Domains and the Donnell...
متن کاملNodal Sets of Steklov
We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in Rn – the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map Λ. For a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω ⊂ Rn, this map associates to each function u defined on the boundary ∂Ω, the normal derivative of the harmonic function on Ω with boundary data u. Under the assumption that the domain Ω is C2, we prove a do...
متن کاملPark City Lectures on Eigenfuntions
These lectures are devoted to nodal geometry of eigenfunctions φλ of the Laplacian ∆g of a Riemannian manifold (M, g) of dimension m and to the associated problems on L norms of eigenfunctions. The manifolds are generally assumed to be compact, although the problems can also be posed on non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. The emphasis of these lectures is on real analytic Riemannian mani...
متن کاملOscillation Estimates of Eigenfunctions via the Combinatorics of Noncrossing Partitions
We study oscillations in the eigenfunctions for a fractional Schrödinger operator on the real line. An argument in the spirit of Courant’s nodal domain theorem applies to an associated local problem in the upper half plane and provides a bound on the number of nodal domains for the extensions of the eigenfunctions. Using the combinatorial properties of noncrossing partitions, we turn the nodal ...
