Equation of the fixed membrane in the n-dimensional space: some remarks on the maxima of the eigenfunctions subjected to various norms
We show in this paper that the sequence {max|uk|}, where the uk are the eigenfunctions of the problem Δu+λu=0 in D⊂Rn and u=0 on ∂D, is not bounded generally if one imposes the norm ∫Du2p(x)dx=1, p=(1),2,3,…. The same holds with the norm ∫D|gradu|2pdx=1 when n>4p−1. On the other hand, if D⊂R2, re...

description | We show in this paper that the sequence {max|uk|}, where the uk are the eigenfunctions of the problem Δu+λu=0 in D⊂Rn and u=0 on ∂D, is not bounded generally if one imposes the norm ∫Du2p(x)dx=1, p=(1),2,3,…. The same holds with the norm ∫D|gradu|2pdx=1 when n>4p−1. On the other hand, if D⊂R2, resp. R3 the norm ∫D|gradu|2dx=1 implies max|uk|→k→∞0, resp. max|uk|=0(1). |
