Abstract

Let MnM^n be a n-dimensional compact manifold, with n3n\geq3. For any conformal class C of riemannian metrics on M, we set μkc(M,C)=infgCμ[n2],k(M,g)\Vol(M,g)2n\mu_k^c(M,C)=\inf_{g\in C}\mu_{[\frac n2],k}(M,g)\Vol(M,g)^{\frac2n}, where μp,k(M,g)\mu_{p,k}(M,g) is the k-th eigenvalue of the Hodge laplacian acting on coexact p-forms. We prove that 0<μkc(M,C)μkc(Sn,[gcan])k2nμ1c(Sn,[gcan])0<\mu_k^c(M,C)\leq\mu_k^c(S^n,[g_{can}])\leq k^{\frac2n}\mu_1^c(S^n,[g_{can}]).
