We consider the problem of minimizing or maximizing the quantity [Formula: see text] on the class of open sets of prescribed Lebesgue measure. Here [Formula: see text] is fixed, [Formula: see text] denotes the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on [Formula: see text], while [Formula: see text] is the torsional rigidity of [Formula: see text]. The optimization problem above is considered in the class of all domains [Formula: see text], in the class of convex domains [Formula: see text], and in the class of thin domains. The full Blaschke–Santaló diagram for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is obtained in dimension one, while for higher dimensions we provide some bounds.

AbstractWe show a Lichnerowicz-Obata type estimate for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian of n-dimensional closed Riemannian manifolds with an almost parallel p-form ($$2\le p \le n/2$$ 2 ≤ p ≤ n / 2 ) in $$L^2$$ L 2 -sense, and give a Gromov-Hausdorff approximation to a product $$S^{n-p}\times X$$ S n - p × X under some pinching conditions when $$2\le p<n/2$$ 2 ≤ p < n / 2 .

We give some estimates of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian for compact and non-compact submanifold immersed in the Euclidean space by using the square length of the second fundamental form of the submanifold merely. Then some spherical theorems and a nonimmersibility theorem of Chern and Kuiper type can be obtained.

AbstractWe consider a 1-parameter family of hyperbolic surfaces M(t) of genus ν which degenerate as t → 0 and we obtain a precise estimate of λAs a direct application, we obtain that the quotientTo prove our results we use in an essential way the geometry of hyperbolic surfaces which is very well known. We show that an eigenfunction for λ

The purpose of this short paper is to give a variation on the classical Donsker–Varadhan inequality, which bounds the first eigenvalue of a second-order elliptic operator on a bounded domain Ω by the largest mean first exit time of the associated drift–diffusion process via λ 1 ≥ 1 sup x ∈ Ω E x τ Ω c . Instead of looking at the mean of the first exit time, we study quantiles: let d p , ∂ Ω : Ω → R ≥ 0 be the smallest time t such that the likelihood of exiting within that time is p , then λ 1 ≥ log ( 1 / p ) sup x ∈ Ω d p , ∂ Ω ( x ) . Moreover, as p → 0 , this lower bound converges to λ 1 .
