On the vanishing of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on tori
Abstract
Consider an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a torus. How small can its L2-norm be on small balls? We provide partial answers to this question by exploiting the distribution of integer points on spheres, basic properties of polynomials, and Nazarov--Tur\'an type estimates for exponential polynomials. Applications to quantum limits and control theory are given.
