Measure Upper Bounds of Nodal Sets of Robin Eigenfunctions

2018 
In this paper, we obtain the upper bounds for the Hausdorff measures of nodal sets of eigenfunctions with the Robin boundary conditions, i.e., \begin{equation*} {\left\{\begin{array}{l} \triangle u+\lambda u=0,\quad in\quad \Omega,\\ u_{\nu}+\mu u=0,\quad on\quad\partial\Omega, \end{array} \right.} \end{equation*} where the domain $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, $u_{\nu}$ means the derivative of $u$ along the outer normal direction of $\partial\Omega$. We show that, if $\Omega$ is bounded and analytic, and the corresponding eigenvalue $\lambda$ is large enough,then the measure upper bounds for the nodal sets of eigenfunctions are $C\sqrt{\lambda}$, where $C$ is a positive constant depending only on $n$ and $\Omega$ but not on $\mu$ We also show that, if $\partial\Omega$ is $C^{\infty}$ smooth and $\partial\Omega\setminus\Gamma$ is piecewise analytic, where $\Gamma\subseteq\partial\Omega$ is a union of some $n-2$ dimensional submanifolds of $\partial\Omega$, $\mu>0$, and $\lambda$ is large enough, then the corresponding measure upper bounds for the nodal sets of $u$ are $C(\sqrt{\lambda}+\mu^{\alpha}+\mu^{-c\alpha})$ for some positive number $\alpha$, where $c$ is a positive constant depending only on $n$, and $C$ is a positive constant depending on $n$, $\Omega$, $\Gamma$ and $\alpha$.
