Abstract

We discuss the behavior of (λ1.p(M))1/p(\lambda_{1. p}(M))^{1/p} with respect to the Gromov-Hausdorff topology and the variable pp, where λ1,p(M)\lambda_{1, p}(M) is the first positive eigenvalue of the pp-Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold MM. Applications include new estimates for the first eigenvalues of the pp-Laplacian on Riemannian manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bounds, and isoperimetric inequalities on Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces. We also establish a new Lichnerowicz-Obata type theorem.
