Abstract

We prove a weak version of the Perdomo Conjecture, namely, there is a positive constant δ(n)>0\delta(n)>0 depending only on nn such that on any closed embedded, non-totally geodesic, minimal hypersurface MnM^n in Sn+1\mathbb{S}^{n+1}, MSδ(n)Vol(Mn),\int_{M}S \geq \delta(n){\rm Vol}(M^n), where SS is the squared length of the second fundamental form of MnM^n. The Perdomo Conjecture asserts that δ(n)=n\delta(n)=n which is still open in general. As byproducts, we also obtain some integral inequalities and Simons-type pinching results on closed embedded (or immersed) minimal hypersurfaces, with the first positive eigenvalue λ1(M)\lambda_1(M) of the Laplacian involved.
