In this short note, we show the rigidity of a trace estimate for Steklov eigenvalues with respect to functions in our previous work (Trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. J. Differential Equations 261 (2016), no. 3, 2026--2040.).…

We study eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\RR^n$ with piecewise smooth boundary. We bound the distance between an arbitrary parameter $E > 0$ and the spectrum $\{E_j \}$ in terms of…
