Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open set of $\mathbb R^{n}$, $n\ge 2$. In this paper we mainly study some properties of the second Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_{2}(p,\Omega)$ of the anisotropic $p$-Laplacian \[ -\mathcal Q_{p}u:=-\textrm{div}…

We consider the Hodge Laplacian $\Delta$ on the Heisenberg group $H_n$, endowed with a left-invariant and U(n)-invariant Riemannian metric. For $0\le k\le 2n+1$, let $\Delta_k$ denote the Hodge Laplacian restricted to $k$-forms. Our first…
