Large dimension behavior of the Hessian eigenvalues of the unit balls

Analysis of PDEs 2025-09-23 v3

Abstract

We show that a sequence of kk-Hessian eigenvalues of the unit ball in Rn{\mathbb R}^n stays bounded as long as the ratio n/kn/k stays bounded. Moreover, we identify their growth of order at least (21/k)(2-1/k) in n/kn/k. In the case k=nk=n, we show that the Monge--Amp\`ere eigenvalues of the unit balls tend to 44 in the large dimension limit.
