On the CR Analogue of Reilly Formula and Yau Eigenvalue Conjecture

Abstract

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 first eigenvalue estimate of the tangential sublaplacian on closed oriented embedded p-minimal hypersurfaces in a closed pseudohermitian (2n+1)-manifold of vanishing torsion.
