Sur une surface riemannienne compacte analytique réelle, nous estimons l’aire du domaine sur lequel une fonction propre du laplacien est positive.

Sur une variété riemannienne compacte de dimension n, nous estimons le rapport entre le minimum et le maximum d’une fonction propre du laplacien.

On a two-dimensional compact real analytic Riemannian manifold we estimate the volume of the set on which the eigenfunction of the Laplace-Beltrami operator is positive.

On an n-dimensional compact smooth Riemannian manifold, we estimate the relation between supremum and infimum of an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator.
