报告摘要：
This is a continued development of our recent work [Cao et al. arXiv:1902.05798, 2019] on the geometric structures of Laplacian eigenfunctions and their applications to inverse scattering problems. We studied in [Cao et al. arXiv:1902.05798, 2019] the analytic behaviour of the Laplacian eigenfunctions at a point where two nodal or generalised singular lines intersect. The results reveal an important intriguing property that the vanishing order of the eigenfunction at the intersecting point is closely related to the rationality of the intersecting angle. In the current paper, we continue this development in three dimensions and study the analytic behaviours of the Laplacian eigenfunctions at places where nodal or generalised singular planes intersect. Compared with the two-dimensional case, the geometric situation is much more complicated, so is the analysis: the intersection of two planes generates an edge corner, whereas the intersection of more than three planes generates a vertex corner. We provide a systematic and comprehensive characterisation of the relation between the analytic behaviours of an eigenfunction at a corner point and the geometric quantities of that corner for all these geometric cases. Moreover, we apply our spectral results to establish some novel unique identifiability results for the geometric inverse problems of recovering the shape as well as the (possible) surface impedance coefficient by the associated scattering far-field measurements.
