We prove that in a Riemannian manifold $M$, each function whose Hessian is proportional the metric tensor yields a weighted monotonicity theorem. Such function appears in the Euclidean space, the round sphere $S^n$ and the hyperbolic space…

We consider the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega,\sigma)$ of the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions on a compact Riemannian manifold $\Omega$ with smooth boundary, $\sigma\in\bf R$ being the Robin boundary parameter. When $\sigma>0$…
