Abstract

We consider the torsion function for the Dirichlet Laplacian −∆, and for the Schr¨odinger operator −∆ + V on an open set Ω ⊂ R m of finite Lebesgue measure 0 < |Ω| < ∞ with a real-valued, non-negative, measurable potential V. We investigate the efficiency and the phenomenon of localisation for the torsion function, and their interplay with the geometry of the first Dirichlet eigenfunction.
