A well known conjecture of Yau states that the first eigenvalue of every closed minimal hypersurface $M^n$ in the unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$ is just its dimension $n$. The present paper shows that Yau conjecture is true for minimal…

In this paper we exhibit deformations of the hemisphere $S^{n+1}_+$, $n\geq 2$, for which the ambient Ricci curvature lower bound $\text{Ric}\geq n $ and the minimality of the boundary are preserved, but the first Laplace eigenvalue of the…

This is a continuation of Tang and Yan, which investigated the first eigenvalues of minimal isoparametric hypersurfaces with $g=4$ distinct principal curvatures and focal submanifolds in unit spheres. For the focal submanifolds with $g=6$,…

We consider a solution f of a certain Dirichlet Problem on a domain in $S^{(n+1)}$ whose boundary is a minimal hypersurface and we prove a Poincare type inequality for f. One have equality iff Yau's conjecture about the first non-zero…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed embedded minimal hypersurface in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{m+1}$ and let $\Lambda=\max\limits_{\Sigma}|A|$ be the norm of its second fundamental form. In this work we prove that the first eigenvalue of the…

In this article, we prove that for an embedded minimal hypersurface $\Sigma^{m}$ in $S^{m+1}$, the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the Laplacian operator on $\Sigma$ satisfies: $$\lambda_1> \frac{m}{2}+G(m, |A|_{\max}, |A|_{\min} ) ,$$…

In this short note we extend an estimate due to J. Simons on the first stability eigenvalue of minimal hypersurfaces in spheres to the singular setting. Specifically, we show that any singular minimal hypersurface in $S^{n+1}$, which is not…

Suppose that $\Sigma^n\subset\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ is a closed embedded minimal hypersurface. We prove that the first non-zero eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the induced Laplace-Beltrami operator on $\Sigma$ satisfies $\lambda_1 \geq \frac{n}{2}+…

I'm sorry that there is a gap in this paper.

In this paper we present an approximation result concerning the first eigenvalue of the 1-Laplacian operator. More precisely, for $\Omega$ a bounded regular open domain, we consider a minimisation of the functional ${\ds \int_\Omega}|\nabla…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B(0,1) \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$, such that $u(0)=0$. Nadirashvili conjectured that there exists a positive constant $c$, depending on the dimension $n$ only, such that $H^{n-1}(\{u=0…

An integral inequality for the singular p-laplacian is established for 3/2<p<2. As consequence, lower bounds for the first eigenvalue of the p-laplacian are obtained for minimal submanifolds and prescribed scalar curvature submanifolds in…

For a given bounded domain $\Omega\subset {\Bbb R}^n$ with $C^1$-smooth boundary, we prove the P\'olya conjecture for the Neumann eigenvalues. In other words, we prove that \begin{eqnarray*} \mu_{k+1}\le \frac{(2\pi)^2k^{2/n}}{(\omega_n…

Recently, for any n>1, Carlotto and Schulz showed the existence of a minimal embedding in the 2n-dimensional unit sphere. In this paper, we show that the stability index of these embedded minimal hypersurfaces is at least n^2+4n+3. We also…

In this paper, we study the Calabi-Yau conjectures for complete minimal hypersurfaces $\Sigma^{n}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ in dimensions $n\ge 3$. These conjectures ask whether a complete minimal hypersurface must be unbounded, and more…

In this note, we investigate the well-known Yau rigidity theorem for minimal submanifolds in spheres. Using the parameter method of Yau and the DDVV inequality verified by Lu, Ge and Tang, we prove that if $M$ is an $n$-dimensional oriented…
