PPW and Chitti type inequalities for the Robin Laplacian operator
arXiv:1402.2338
Abstract
In this paper, we prove two results for the Robin eigenvalue problem. One is an upper bound for the ratio of the first two eigenvalues which can be used to recover the PPW conjecture proved by M.S.Ashbaugh and R.D.Benguria, the other is a reverse Holder inequality for the first eigenfunction which is a natural generalization of Chiti's reverse Holder inequality for the first eigenfunction of Dirichlet Laplacian.
