A Steklov eigenvalue estimate for affine connections and its application to substatic triples

Differential Geometry 2025-04-11 v1

Abstract

Choi-Wang obtained a lower bound of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on closed minimal hypersurfaces. On minimal hypersurfaces with boundary, Fraser-Li established an inequality giving a lower bound of the first Steklov eigenvalue as a counterpart of the Choi-Wang type inequality. These inequalities were shown under lower bounds of the Ricci curvature. In this paper, under non-negative Ricci curvature associated with an affine connection introduced by Wylie-Yeroshkin, we give a generalization of Fraser-Li type inequality. Our results hold not only for weighted manifolds under non-negative 11-weighted Ricci curvature but also for substatic triples.
