A lower bound for the principal eigenvalue of fully nonlinear elliptic operators
Dpto. de Matemáticas, FCEyN, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina. |
In this article we present a new technique to obtain a lower bound for the principal Dirichlet eigenvalue of a fully nonlinear elliptic operator. We illustrate the construction of an appropriate radial function required to obtain the bound in several examples. In particular we use our results to prove that
| $ \lim_{p\to \infty}\lambda_{1,p}(\Omega) = \lambda_{1,\infty}(\Omega) = \left(\frac{\pi}{2R}\right)^2 $ |
where
| $ R $ |
| $ \Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^n $ |
| $ \lambda_{1,p}(\Omega) $ |
| $ \lambda_{1,\infty}(\Omega) $ |
| $ p $ |
