Upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues of warped products

Abstract

We obtain upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues of warped products Ω×hΣ\Omega\times_h\Sigma, where Ω\Omega is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and Σ\Sigma is a closed Riemannian manifold. These bounds involve the volume of Ω\Omega and of Ω\partial\Omega as well as the eigenvalues of the Laplace operator on the fiber Σ\Sigma and the LpL^p-norm of the warping function hh. The bounds are very different depending on the dimension nn of the fiber Σ\Sigma and the value of pp. In some cases, we obtain optimal upper bounds and stability estimates.
