About a Pólya-Schiffer inequality

Bodo Dittmar, Maren Hantke (2011)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

Similarity:

For simply connected planar domains with the maximal conformal radius 1 it was proven in 1954 by G. Pólya and M. Schiffer that for the eigenvalues λ of the fixed membrane for any n the following inequality holds [...] where λ(o) are the eigenvalues of the unit disk. The aim of the paper is to give a sharper version of this inequality and for the sum of all reciprocals to derive formulas which allow in some cases to calculate exactly this sum.

Existence of multiple principal eigenvalues for some indefinite linear eigenvalue problems

J. Fleckinger, J. Hernández, F. Thélin (2004)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We study the existence of principal eigenvalues for differential operators of second order which are not necessarily in divergence form. We obtain results concerning multiplicity of principal eigenvalues in both the variational and the general case. Our approach uses systematically the Krein-Rutman theorem and fixed point arguments for the spectral radius of some associated problems. We also use a variational characterization for both the self-adjoint and the general case.

Extension of Díaz-Saá's inequality in R and application to a system of p-Laplacian.

Karim Chaïb (2002)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to extend the Díaz-Saá’s inequality for the unbounded domains as RN. The proof is based on the Picone’s identity which is very useful in problems involving p-Laplacian. In a second part, we study some properties of the first eigenvalue for a system of p-Laplacian. We use Díaz-Saá’s inequality to prove uniqueness and Egorov’s theorem for the isolation. These results generalize J. Fleckinger, R. F. Manásevich, N. M. Stavrakakis...
