The sharp upper bounds for the first positive eigenvalue of the Kohn–Laplacian on compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces

Abstract: Abstract. We give sharp and explicit upper bounds for the first positive eigenvalue λ1( b ) of the Kohn-Laplacian on compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces in C n+1 in terms of their defining functions. As an application, we show that in the family of real ellipsoids, λ1( b ) has a unique maximum value at the CR sphere.

“…For example, in [3] a Lichnerowicz-type estimate for the first positive eigenvalue in terms of the Webster scalar curvature (or Ricci curvature) was established, while the characterization of the equality case in this estimate was treated in [6] and [2], for the higher-dimensional and the three-dimensional cases respectively. In [5], several upper bounds for the first positive eigenvalue of the Kohn Laplacian on the boundaries of certain domains in C 2 were obtained; the bounds are extrinsic, depending on the realization of the CR manifolds as embedded compact real hypersurfaces in C 2 . All of the aforementioned bounds are sharp, with equality holding if (M, θ) is isomorphic to the standard CR sphere.…”

“…The Bergman kernels of the ellipsoids were studied by Hirachi, [13]. The ellipsoids have also been studied in pseudo-Hermitian CR geometry, see [11,12]. The final result of the paper characterizes the ellipsoids which satisfy (1.4).…”
