Abstract: | In this paper, we prove that for a bounded domain in a rank- symmetric space, the first non-zero Neumann eigenvalue where denotes the geodesic ball of radius such that ![\begin{equation*}vol(\Omega )=vol(B(r_{1}))\end{equation*}](http://www.ams.org/tran/1996-348-10/S0002-9947-96-01682-0/gif-abstract/img8.gif)
and equality holds iff . This result generalises the works of Szego, Weinberger and Ashbaugh-Benguria for bounded domains in the spaces of constant curvature. |
