Geometrical Structure of Laplacian Eigenfunctions

We summarize the properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in bounded Euclidean domains with Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin boundary condition. We keep the presentation at a level accessible to scientists from various disciplines ranging from mathematics to physics and computer sciences. The main focus is put onto multiple intricate relations between the shape of a domain and the geometrical structure of eigenfunctions.
