Accepted by Annals of Global Analysis and Geometry", "categories": [ "math.DG", "math.CV" ], "abstract": "Suppose $(M,g_0)$ is a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary of dimension $n\\geq 3$. Using the Yamabe flow, we obtain estimate for the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian of $g_0$ with negative scalar curvature in terms of the Yamabe metric in its conformal class. On the other hand, we prove that the first eigenvalue of some geometric operators on a compact Riemannian manifold is nondecreasing along the unnormalized Yamabe flow under suitable curvature assumption. Similar results are obtained for manifolds with boundary and for CR manifold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-03-21T08:01:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "first eigenvalue", "geometric operators", "compact riemannian manifold", "first nonzero eigenvalue", "suitable curvature assumption" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
