Pointwise bounds for Steklov eigenfunctions

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let (Omega,g) be a compact, real-analytic Riemannian manifold with real-analytic boundary partialOmega. The harmonic extensions of the boundary Dirchlet-to-Neumann eigenfunctions are called Steklov eigenfunctions. We show that the Steklov eigenfuntions decay exponentially into the interior in terms of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenvalues and give a sharp rate of decay to first order at the boundary. The proof uses the Poisson representation for the Steklov eigenfunctions combined with sharp h-microlocal concentration estimates for the boundary Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenfunctions near the cosphere bundle SpartialOmega. These estimates follow from sharp estimates on the concentration of the FBI transforms of solutions to analytic pseudodifferential equations Pu=0 near the characteristic set sigma(P)=0.
