Universal Bounds for Eigenvalues of the Polyharmonic Operators

چکیده
We study eigenvalues of polyharmonic operators on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary (possibly empty). In particular, we prove a universal inequality for the eigenvalues of the polyharmonic operators on compact domains in a Euclidean space. This inequality controls the kth eigenvalue by the lower eigenvalues, independently of the particular geometry of the domain. Our inequality is sharper than the known Payne-Pólya-Weinberg type inequality and also covers the important Yang inequality on eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian. We also prove universal inequalities for the lower order eigenvalues of the polyharmonic operator on compact domains in a Euclidean space which in the case of the biharmonic operator and the buckling problem strengthen the estimates obtained by Ashbaugh. Finally, we prove universal inequalities for eigenvalues of polyharmonic operators of any order on compact domains in the sphere.

An Approach to Spectral Problems on Riemannian Manifolds
It is shown that eigenvalues of the Laplace–Beltrami operator on a compact Riemannian manifold can be determined as limits of eigenvalues of certain finite-dimensional operators in spaces of polyharmonic functions with singularities. In particular, a bounded set of eigenvalues can be determined using a space of such polyharmonic functions with a fixed set of singularities. It also shown that co...
متن کاملTrace Identities for Commutators, with Applications to the Distribution of Eigenvalues
We prove trace identities for commutators of operators, which are used to derive sum rules and sharp universal bounds for the eigenvalues of periodic Schrödinger operators and Schrödinger operators on immersed manifolds. In particular, we prove bounds on the eigenvalue λN+1 in terms of the lower spectrum, bounds on ratios of means of eigenvalues, and universal monotonicity properties of eigenva...
متن کاملUniversal bounds and semiclassical estimates for eigenvalues
We prove trace inequalities for a self-adjoint operator on an abstract Hilbert space. These inequalities lead to universal bounds on spectral gaps and on moments of eigenvalues {λk} that are analogous to those known for Schrödinger operators and the Dirichlet Laplacian, on which the operators of interest are modeled. In addition we produce inequalities that are new even in the model case. These...
متن کاملA framework of verified eigenvalue bounds for self-adjoint differential operators
For eigenvalue problems of self-adjoint differential operators, a universal framework is proposed to give explicit lower and upper bounds for the eigenvalues. In the case of the Laplacian operator, by applying Crouzeix–Raviart finite elements, an efficient algorithm is developed to bound the eigenvalues for the Laplacian defined in 1D, 2D and 3D spaces. Moreover, for nonconvex domains, for whic...
