Abstract

For a compact Riemannian manifold M immersed into a higher dimensional manifold which can be chosen to be a Euclidean space, a unit sphere, or even a projective space, we successfully give several upper bounds in terms of the norm of the mean curvature vector of M for the first non-zero eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian (1 < p < +∞) on M. This result can be seen as an extension of Reilly’s bound for the first non-zero closed eigenvalue of the Laplace operator.
