In this paper, we prove a generalization of Reilly's formula in \cite{Reilly}. We apply such general Reilly's formula to give alternative proofs of the Alexandrov's Theorem and the Heintze-Karcher inequality in the hemisphere and in the hyperbolic space. Moreover, we use the general Reilly's formula to prove a new Hein…

In this paper, we extend the Reilly formula for drifting Laplacian operator and apply it to study eigenvalue estimate for drifting Laplacian operators on compact Riemannian manifolds boundary. Our results on eigenvalue estimates extend previous results of Reilly and Choi and Wang.

We prove the Reilly formula for a class of elliptic divergence differential operator $L_Au=div(A\nabla u)$, where $A$ is a (1,1)-Codazzi tensor field. Then we get some estimates for the first positive eigenvalue of the operator.

In this paper, we derive the CR Reilly's formula and its applications to studying of the first eigenvalue estimate for CR Dirichlet eigenvalue problem and embedded p-minimal hypersurfaces. In particular, we obtain the first Dirichlet eigenvalue estimate in a compact pseudohermitian (2n+1)-manifold with boundary and the…

Let Hn denote the (2n + 1)-dimensional (sub-Riemannian) Heisenberg group. In this note, we shall prove an integral identity (see Theorem 1.2) which generalizes a formula obtained in the Seventies by Reilly. Some first applications will be given in Section 4.

In this note we apply the general Reilly formula established in \cite{QX} to the solution of a Neumann boundary value problem to prove an optimal Minkowski type inequality in space forms.

We derive a Reilly-type formula for differential p-forms on a compact manifold with boundary and apply it to give a sharp lower bound of the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian acting on differential forms of an embedded hypersurface of a Riemannian manifold. The equality case of our inequality gives rise to a number of ri…

Study on static perfect fluid space-time geometry and boundary estimates.

New lower bounds of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the weighted $p$-Laplacian are established on compact smooth metric measure spaces with or without boundaries. Under the assumption of positive lower bound for the $m$-Bakry--Émery Ricci curvature, the Escober--Lichnerowicz--Reilly type estimates are proved; under the…

In this paper, we generalize the CR Obata theorem to a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold with a weighted volume measure. More precisely, we first derive the weighted CR Reilly's formula associated with the Witten sub-Laplacian and obtain the corresponding first eigenvalue estimate. With its applications, we obt…

We show that two properly embedded self-shrinkers in Euclidean space that are sufficiently separated at infinity must intersect at a finite point. The proof is based on a localized version of the Reilly formula applied to a suitable f-harmonic function with controlled gradient. In the immersed case, a new direct proof …

More precisely, we first derive the weighted CR Reilly's formula associated with the weighted Kohn Laplacian and obtain the corresponding first eigenvalue estimate. With…

In this article, we first establish the main tool - an integral formula for Riemannian manifolds with multiple boundary components (or without boundary). This formula generalizes Reilly's original formula from \cite{Re2} and the recent result from \cite{QX}. It provides a robust tool for sub-static manifolds regardless…

In this paper, we consider three typical problems on a locally finite connected graph. The first one is to study the Bochner formula for the Laplacian operator on a locally finite connected graph. We use the Bochner formula to derive the Bernstein type estimate of the heat equation. The second is to derive the Reilly t…

Sharp bounds and rigidity theorems for eigenvalues on manifolds.

It is known that planar disks and small spherical caps are the only constant mean curvature graphs whose boundary is a round circle. Usually, the proof invokes the Maximum Principle for elliptic equations. This paper presents a new proof of this result motivated by an article due to Reilly. Our proof utilizes a flux fo…

It is known that by dualizing the Bochner-Lichnerowicz-Weitzenböck formula, one obtains Poincaré-type inequalities on Riemannian manifolds equipped with a density, which satisfy the Bakry-Émery Curvature-Dimension condition (combining a lower bound on its generalized Ricci curvature and an upper bound on its generalize…

New inequalities for submanifolds in curved spaces.

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional closed orientable submanifold in an $N$-dimensional space form. When $1<p \le \frac n2 + 1$, we obtain an upper bound for the first nonzero eigenvalue of the $p$-Laplacian in terms of the mean curvature of $M$ and the curvature of the space form. This generalizes the Reilly inequality for …

Upper bounds for Steklov eigenvalues on curved submanifolds.

Given a positive function $F$ on $\mathbb S^n$ which satisfies a convexity condition, for $1\leq r\leq n$, we define for hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ the $r$-th anisotropic mean curvature function $H_{r; F}$, a generalization of the usual $r$-th mean curvature function. We also define $L_{r; F}$ operator, the li…

It was conjectured by Escobar [J. Funct. Anal. 165 (1999), 101-116] that for an $n$-dimensional ($n\geq 3$) smooth compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, which has nonnegative Ricci curvature and boundary principal curvatures bounded below by $c>0$, the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue is greater than or equal to $…

In this work we generalise various recent results on the evolution and monotonicity of the eigenvalues of certain geometric operators under specified geometric flows.

By means of a family of counter-examples, it is shown that the Reilly upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator for a compact submanifold in Euclidean space does not work for $n$-dimensional compact spacelike submanifolds of Lorentz-Minkowski spacetime $\mathbb{L}^m$, $m\geq n+2$. We develop a new su…
