Reilly inequality for Varifolds

Differential Geometry 2025-07-14 v1

Abstract

The famous Reilly inequality gives an upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian defined on compact submanifolds of the Euclidean space in terms of the L2L^2-norm of the mean curvature vector. In this paper, we generalize this inequality in a Varifold context. In particular we generalize it for the class of H(2)H(2) varifolds and for polygons and we analyse the equality case.
