Inequalities for eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem

In this paper we study eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem on compact domains in complete manifolds. For complete manifolds admitting special functions, we prove universal inequalities for eigenvalues of clamped plate problem independent of the domains of Payne?CPólya?CWeinberger?CYang type. These manifolds include Hadamard manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below, a class of warped product manifolds, the product of Euclidean spaces with any complete manifolds and manifolds admitting eigenmaps to a sphere. In the case of warped product manifolds, our result implies a universal inequality on hyperbolic space proved by Cheng?CYang. We also strengthen an inequality for eigenvalues of clamped plate problem on submanifolds in a Euclidean space obtained recently by Cheng, Ichikawa and Mametsuka.

Estimates for eigenvalues of Laplacian operator with any order

Let D be a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. Assume that 0 ＜ λ1 ≤λ2 ≤ … ≤ λκ ≤ … are the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian operator with any order l{(-△)lu=λu, in D u=(δ)u/(δ)(→n)=…(δ)l-1u/(δ)(→n)l-1=0,on (δ)D.Then we obtain an upper bound of the (k 1)-th eigenvalue λκ 1 in terms of the first k eigenvalues.k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi) ≤ 1/n[4l(n 2l-2)]1/2{k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi)1/2λil-1/l k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi)1/2λ1/li}1/2.This ineguality is independent of the domain D. Furthermore, for any l ≥ 3 the above inequality is better than all the known results. Our rusults are the natural generalization of inequalities corresponding to the case l = 2 considered by Qing-Ming Cheng and Hong-Cang Yang. When l = 1, our inequalities imply a weaker form of Yang inequalities. We aslo reprove an implication claimed by Cheng and Yang.

Estimates for eigenvalues of the poly-Laplacian with any order in a unit sphere

In this paper we study eigenvalues of the poly-Laplacian with any order on a domain in an n-dimensional unit sphere and obtain estimates for eigenvalues. In particular, the optimal result of Cheng and Yang (Math Ann 331:445–460, 2005) is included in our ones. In order to prove our results, we introduce 2(l + 1) functions a _i and b _i , for i = 0, 1, . . . , l and two operators μ and η. First of all, we study properties of functions a _i and b _i and the operators μ and η. By making use of these properties and introducing k free constants, we obtain estimates for eigenvalues.     

Bounding eigenvalues of clamped plates

Zusammenfassung Es wird ein Verfahren zur Berechnung von oberen und unteren Schranken für die Eigenwerte einer eingespannten Platte beliebiger Form dargestellt. Die Methode besteht darin, exakte Partikulärlösungen der Plattengleichung ( ² u=u) zu konstruieren, welche die Randbedingungen des Plattenproblems approximativ erfüllen. Der Abstand zwischen dem Eigenwert der Partikulärlösung und einem Eigenwert des Plattenproblems kann dann mit Hilfe eines Lemmas vonMoler undPayne abgeschätzt werden.Als Beispiele wurden die ersten Eigenwerte der quadratischen Platte sowie einiger elliptischer Platten berechnet. Für eine spezielle elliptische Platte sind die ersten vier Eigenwerte angegeben.     

Universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of self-adjoint operators and the poly-Laplacian

In this paper, we first establish an abstract inequality for lower order eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space which generalizes and extends the recent results of Cheng et al. （Calc. Var. Partial Differential Equations, 38, 409-416 （2010））. Then, making use of it, we obtain some universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of the biharmonic operator on manifolds admitting some speciM functions. Moreover, we derive a universal inequality for lower order eigenvalues of the poly-Laplacian with any order on the Euclidean space.     

Estimates for eigenvalues of stochastic matrices

It is well-known that the eigenvalues of stochastic matrices lie in the unit circle and at least one of them has the value one. Let {1, r 2 , ··· , r N } be the eigenvalues of stochastic matrix X of size N × N . We will present in this paper a simple necessary and sufficient condition for X such that |r j | < 1, j = 2, ··· , N . Moreover, such condition can be very quickly examined by using some search algorithms from graph theory.     

Estimates for eigenvalues on Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we investigate eigenvalues of the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of Laplacian on a bounded domain Ω in an n-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold M. When M is an n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn, the conjecture of Pólya is well known: the kth eigenvalue λk of the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of Laplacian satisfies

     

Inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of second order elliptic operators in divergence form on Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet eigenvalue problems of second order elliptic operators in divergence form on bounded domains of complete Riemannian manifolds. We discuss the cases of submanifolds immersed in a Euclidean space, Riemannian manifolds admitting spherical eigenmaps, and Riemannian manifolds which admit l functions ${f_\alpha : M \longrightarrow \mathbb{R}}$ such that ${\langle \nabla f_\alpha, \nabla f_\beta \rangle = \delta_{\alpha \beta}}$ and Δf _α = 0, where ? is the gradient operator. Some inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of these problems are established. As applications of these results, we obtain some universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian problem. In particular, the universal inequality for eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a unit sphere is optimal.

For an n  -dimensional compact submanifold Mⁿ$M^n$ in the Euclidean space R^N${\mathbf{R}}^N$, we study estimates for eigenvalues of the Paneitz operator on Mⁿ$M^n$. Our estimates for eigenvalues are sharp.     

Upper and lower bounds for higher order eigenvalues of some semilinear elliptic equations

We prove upper and lower bounds on the eigenvalues (as the norm of the eigenfunction tends to zero) in bifurcation problems for a class of semilinear elliptic equations in bounded domains of R^N. It is shown that these bounds are computable in terms of the eigenvalues of the associated linear equation.     

Estimates for eigenvalues of quasilinear elliptic systems

In this paper we introduce the generalized eigenvalues of a quasilinear elliptic system of resonant type. We prove the existence of infinitely many continuous eigencurves, which are obtained by variational methods. For the one-dimensional problem, we obtain an hyperbolic type function defining a region which contains all the generalized eigenvalues (variational or not), and the proof is based on a suitable generalization of Lyapunov's inequality for systems of ordinary differential equations. We also obtain a family of curves bounding by above the kth variational eigencurve.     

Estimates for the inverse of a matrix and bounds for eigenvalues

This paper gives new bounds for the relationship between the diagonal elements of a square matrix and the corresponding diagonal elements of the matrix inverse, as well as bounds for the eigenvalues of the matrix. The results given here generalize those of Ostrowski and Ky Fan, and have their origin in engineering application.     

Two lower order nonconforming quadrilateral elements for the Reissner-Mindlin plate

This paper generalizes two nonconforming rectangular elements of the Reissner-Mindlin plate to the quadrilateral mesh. The first quadrilateral element uses the usual conforming bilinear element to approximate both components of the rotation, and the modified nonconforming rotated Q ₁ element enriched with the intersected term on each element to approximate the displacement, whereas the second one uses the enriched modified nonconforming rotated Q ₁ element to approximate both the rotation and the displacement. Both elements employ a more complicated shear force space to overcome the shear force locking, which will be described in detail in the introduction. We prove that both methods converge at optimal rates uniformly in the plate thickness t and the mesh distortion parameter in both the H ¹-and the L ²-norms, and consequently they are locking free.
