Recently, the first named author together with Xinan Ma \cite{ma2015neumann}, have proved the existence of the Neumann problems for Hessian equations.

Many challenging image processing tasks can be described by an ill-posed linear inverse problem: deblurring, deconvolution, inpainting, compressed sensing, and superresolution all lie in this framework. Traditional inverse problem solvers minimize a cost function consisting of a data-fit term, which measures how well a…

In this paper, we prove long time existence and convergence results for a class of general curvature flows with Neumann boundary condition. This is the first result for the Neumann boundary problem of non Monge-Ampere type curvature equations. Our method also works for the corresponding elliptic setting.

In this paper, we prove the existence of a classical solution to a Neumann boundary problem for Hessian equations in uniformly convex domain. The methods depend upon the established of a priori derivative estimates up to second order. So we give a affirmative answer to a conjecture of N. Trudinger in 1986.

In this paper, we mainly study eigenvalue problems of p-Laplacian on domains with an interior hole. Firstly we prove Faber-Krahn-type inequalities, and Cheng-type eigenvalue comparison theorems on manifolds. Secondly, we prove a comparison theorem for eigenvalues with inner Dirichlet and outer Neumann boundary in minim…

In this note, we investigate upper bounds of the Neumann eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian of a bounded domain (with smooth boundary) in a given complete (not compact a priori) Riemannian manifold with Ricci bounded below . For this, we use test functions for the Rayleigh quotient subordinated to a family of open se…

We derive gradient and second order {\em a priori} estimates for solutions of the Neumann problem for a general class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. These estimates yield regularity and existence results.

The Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for differential forms on a Riemannian manifold with boundary is a generalization of the classical Dirichlet-to-Neumann map which arises in the problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography. We synthesize the two different approaches to defining this operator by giving an invariant definition …

Inequalities between the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian have received much attention in the literature, but open problems abound. Here, we study the number of Neumann eigenvalues no greater than the first Dirichlet eigenvalue. Based on a combination of analytical and numerical results, we conjecture…

We prove Li-Yau-Kröger type bounds for Neumann-type eigenvalues of the poly-harmonic operator and of the biharmonic operator on bounded domains in a Euclidean space. We also prove sharp estimates for lower order eigenvalues of a biharmonic Steklov problem and of the Laplacian, which directly implies two sharp Reilly-ty…

We establish sharp regularity and Fredholm theorems for the \bar{\partial}_b-Neumann problem on domains satisfying some non-generic geometric conditions. We use these domains to construct explicit examples of bad behaviour of the Kohn Laplacian: it is not always hypoelliptic up to the boundary, its partial inverse is n…

We study the learnability of a class of compact operators known as Schatten--von Neumann operators. These operators between infinite-dimensional function spaces play a central role in a variety of applications in learning theory and inverse problems. We address the question of sample complexity of learning Schatten-von…

Making use of its smooth structure only, out of a connected oriented smooth $4$-manifold a von Neumann algebra is constructed.
