Dirichlet--Neumann duality for the Basic Spectrum of Riemannian Submersions: A Supersymmetric Perspective

Abstract

This manuscript investigates the spectral geometry of Riemannian submersions whose fibers have a basic mean curvature. By restricting the Laplace--Beltrami operator to the space of basic functions, we reduce the spectral problem on $M$ to the spectral problem for a weighted Laplacian on the base manifold, where the weight is determined by the fiber-volume function $S$. We derive a summation formula for the reciprocal of the basic Dirichlet eigenvalues (Basel-type series). Furthermore, using the framework of Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics (SUSYQM), we establish a supersym\-me\-tric duality relating the basic Dirichlet and Neumann spectra under the trans\-for\-ma\-tion $S\mapsto 1/S$.
