Summary on Grant Application Form
Spectral theory studies the mathematical models usually arising in wave motion, either in continuum mechanics or in quantum physics, and the abstract analogues. Most of the problems involving partial differential equations cannot be solved analytically. Spectral geometry studies the links between the underlying geometry and the spectral properties of operators, both direct and inverse.

We propose to investigate some long stranding conjectures in spectral geometry, and some new problems, using the method of multipliers commonly associated with the names of Hörmander, Rellich, Pohozhaev and Morawetz. This method leads to identities which are a priori satisfied by eigenfunctions of a boundary value problem, and which can be used to extract the relevant geometric information.
