Small eigenvalues of pseudo-Laplacians

Differential Geometry 2025-12-23 v1 Spectral Theory

Abstract

We extend the Otal-Rosas bound on the number of small eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a hyperbolic surface to the small eigenvalues of pseudo-Laplacians. In the process, we extend the work of Colin de Verdi\`ere on the spectral theory of pseudo-Laplacians to hyperbolic surfaces with more than one cusp.
