In this paper, we mainly study eigenvalue problems of p-Laplacian on domains with an interior hole. Firstly we prove Faber-Krahn-type inequalities, and Cheng-type eigenvalue comparison theorems on manifolds. Secondly, we prove a comparison…

We generalize a classical inequality between the eigenvalues of the Laplacians with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded, planar domains: in 1955, Payne proved that below the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian…

We provide an answer to a question raised by Levine and Weinberger in their $1986$ paper concerning the difference between Dirichlet and Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. More precisely, we show…

Inequalities for the eigenvalues of the (negative) Laplacian subject to mixed boundary conditions on polyhedral and more general bounded domains are established. The eigenvalues subject to a Dirichlet boundary condition on a part of the…

The Faber-Krahn inequality in $\mathbb{R}^2$ states that among all open bounded sets of given area the disk minimizes the first Dirichlet Laplacian eigenvalue. There are numerical evidences that for all $N\ge 3$ the first Dirichlet…

In this paper, we obtain a sharp upper bound for the sum of the first $k$-th eigenvalues for this Dirichlet problem of poly-Laplacian with any order, which is viewed as an extension of the result due to Cheng and Wei (Journal of…

We prove that $\mu_{k+m}^m <\lambda_k^m$, where $\mu_k^m$ ($\lambda_k^m$) are the eigenvalues of $(-\Delta)^m$ on $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^d$, $d\geq 2$, with Neumann (Dirichlet) boundary conditions.

In this paper we investigate the behavior of the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on sets in $\mathbb{R}^N$ whose first eigenvalue is close to the one of the ball with the same volume. In particular in our main Theorem we prove that,…
