This article concerns the number of nodal domains of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on special Riemannian -manifolds, namely nontrivial principal bundles over Riemann surfaces equipped with certain invariant metrics, the Kaluza–Klein metrics. We prove for generic Kaluza–Klein metrics that any Laplacian eigenfunction has exactly two nodal domains unless it is invariant under the action.
We also construct an explicit orthonormal eigenbasis on the flat -torus for which every non-constant eigenfunction has two nodal domains.
Cet article concerne le nombre de domaines nodaux des fonctions propres du Laplacien sur des variétés Riemanniennes Kaluza–Klein en dimension trois, à savoir des variétés qui sont des fibrés -principaux sur des surfaces de Riemann équipées avec une métrique -invariante de type Kaluza–Klein. Pour des métriques génériques de ce type, on prouve que chaque fonction propre possède exactement deux domains nodaux, sauf si elle est invariante par l’action de .
On construit aussi une base orthonormale de fonctions propres explicites du tore plat pour que chaque fonction propre non constante possède exactement deux domaines nodaux.
