Geodesics and Nodal Sets of Laplace Eigenfunctions on Hyperbolic Manifolds

چکیده
Let X be a manifold equipped with a complete Riemannian metric of constant negative curvature and finite volume. We demonstrate the finiteness of the collection of totally geodesic immersed hypersurfaces in X that lie in the zero-level set of an arbitrary Laplace eigenfunction. For surfaces, we show that the number can be bounded just in terms of the area of the surface. We also provide constructions of geodesics in hyperbolic surfaces that lie in a nodal set but that do not lie in the fixed point set of a reflection symmetry.

Park 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 کاملNorms of Geodesic Restrictions for Eigenfunctions on Hyperbolic Surfaces and Representation Theory
We consider restrictions along closed geodesics and geodesic circles for eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a compact hyperbolic Riemann surface. We obtain a non-trivial bound on the L-norm of such restrictions as the eigenvalue tends to infinity. We use methods from the theory of automorphic functions and in particular the uniqueness of invariant functionals on irreducible unit...

متن کاملLocal 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...
