The book is a collection of lecture notes and survey papers based on the mini-courses given by leading experts at the 2015 Seminaire de Mathematiques Superieures on Geometric and Computational Spectral Theory, held from June 15-26, 2015, at the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The volume covers a broad variety of topics in spectral theory, highlighting its connections to differential geometry, mathematical physics and numerical analysis, bringing together the theoretical and computational approaches to spectral theory, and emphasizing the...

In 2012, the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques was at the center of many interesting developments in geometric and spectral analysis, with a thematic program on Geometric Analysis and Spectral Theory followed by a thematic year on Moduli Spaces, Extremality and Global Invariants. This volume contains original contributions as well as useful survey articles of recent developments by participants from three of the workshops organized during these programs: Geometry of Eigenvalues and Eigenfunctions, held from June 4-8, 2012; Manifolds of Metrics and Probabilistic Methods in Geometry and...
