Comparison Results, Exit Time Moments, And Eigenvalues On Riemannian Manifolds With A Lower Ricci Curvature Bound

Spectral Theory 2017-06-14 v2

Abstract

We study the relationship between the geometry of smoothly bounded domains in complete Riemannian manifolds and the associated sequence of L1L^1-norms of exit time moments for Brownian motion. We establish bounds for Dirichlet eigenvalues and, for closed manifolds, we establish a comparison result for elements of the moment sequence.
