Torsional rigidity and isospectral planar sets

Joseph Comer, Patrick McDonald

We prove that a certain pair of isospectral planar sets are distinguished by torsional rigidity.

Extremizing Temperature Functions of Rods with Robin Boundary Conditions

Jeffrey J. Langford, Patrick McDonald

We compare the solutions of two one-dimensional Poisson problems on an interval with Robin boundary conditions, one with given data, and one where the data has been symmetrized. Wh…

Comparison Results, Exit Time Moments, And Eigenvalues On Riemannian Manifolds With A Lower Ricci Curvature Bound

Don Colladay, Jeffrey J. Langford, Patrick McDonald

We study the relationship between the geometry of smoothly bounded domains in complete Riemannian manifolds and the associated sequence of -norms of exit time moments for Brow…

Exit Time Moments and Eigenvalue Estimates

Emily B. Dryden, Jeffrey J. Langford, Patrick McDonald

We study estimates involving the principal Dirichlet eigenvalue associated to a smoothly bounded domain in a complete Riemannian manifold and L1-norms of exit time moments of Brown…

Torsional Rigidity, Isospectrality and Quantum Graphs

Don Colladay, Leon Kaganovskiy, Patrick McDonald

We study torsional rigidity for graph and quantum graph analogs of well-known pairs of isospectral non-isometric planar domains. We prove that such isospectral pairs are distinguis…

Heat content determines planar triangles

Reed Meyerson, Patrick McDonald

We prove that heat content determines planar triangles.
