We demonstrate lower bounds for the eigenvalues of compact Bakry-Emery manifolds with and without boundary. The lower bounds for the first eigenvalue rely on a generalised maximum principle which allows gradient estimates in the Riemannian…

For almost all Riemannian metrics (in the $C^\infty$ Baire sense) on a compact manifold with boundary $(M^{n+1},\partial M)$, $3\leq (n + 1)\leq 7$, we prove that, for any open subset $V$ of $\partial M$, there exists a compact, properly…
