Abstract

In the first part, we derive monotonicity of the normalized spectra for the second-order Steklov problem and two fourth-order Steklov problems on the 22-dimensional geodesic disks with respect to the geodesic radius in the sphere and the hyperbolic space. The normalizations are made using four natural geometric factors. As corollaries, we get Escobar-type bounds for Steklov eigenvalues on 22-dimensional geodesic disks with varying curvature in space forms. We also get two monotonicity results for higher-dimensional cases. In the second part, we obtain some sharp bounds concerning the spectra of the two fourth-order Steklov problems on warped product manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature and a strictly convex boundary. In particular, we confirm Qiaoling Wang and Changyu Xia's conjecture (2018) on the sharp lower bound of the first non-zero eigenvalue of a fourth-order Steklov problem in the case of 33-dimensional warped product manifolds.
