We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the second nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian on $S^m$. For $S^{2}$, the second nonzero eigenvalue becomes maximal as the surface degenerates to two disjoint spheres, by a result of…
Results are obtained for two minimization problems: $$I_k(c)=\inf \{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{open, convex in}\ \mathbb{R}^m,\ \mathcal{T}(\Omega)= c \},$$ and $$J_k(c)=\inf\{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{quasi-open in}\…

We consider the following eigenvalue optimization problem: Given a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\R^n$ and numbers $\alpha\geq 0$, $A\in [0,|\Omega|]$, find a subset $D\subset\Omega$ of area $A$ for which the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of…
We prove a lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the sub-Laplacian on sub-Riemannian manifolds with transverse symmetries. When the manifold is of H-type, we obtain a corresponding rigidity result: If the optimal lower bound for the first…
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,…
