For any bounded regular domain $\Omega$ of a real analytic Riemannian manifold $M$, we denote by $\lambda_{k}(\Omega)$ the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian of $\Omega$. In this paper, we consider $\lambda_k$ and as a functional…

Let $\Omega$ be some domain in the hyperbolic space $\Hn$ (with $n\ge 2$) and $S_1$ the geodesic ball that has the same first Dirichlet eigenvalue as $\Omega$. We prove the Payne-P\'olya-Weinberger conjecture for $\Hn$, i.e., that the…
