In this paper, we investigate eigenvalues of Laplacian on a bounded domain in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and obtain a sharper lower bound for the sum of its eigenvalues, which gives an improvement of results due to A. D. Melas [15].…

We study spectral properties of Dirichlet Laplacian on the conical layer of the opening angle $\pi-2\theta$ and thickness equal to $\pi$. We demonstrate that below the continuum threshold which is equal to one there is an infinite sequence…

We prove that for an embedded minimal surface $\Sigma$ in $S^3$, the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator $\lambda_1$ satisfies $\lambda_1\geq 1+\epsilon_g$, where $\epsilon_g>0$ is a constant depending only on the genus $g$ of…
