Lower bound for the first eigenvalue of $p-$Laplacian and applications in asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein manifolds

Abstract

This paper investigates the first Dirichlet eigenvalue for the $p$-Laplacian in Riemannian manifolds. Firstly, we establish a lower bound for this eigenvalue under the condition that the domain includes a specific function which fulfills certain criteria related to divergence and gradient conditions. In the subsequent section, we introduce an enhanced lower bound for the eigenvalue, which is linked to the distance function defined in the domain. As a practical application, we provide an estimation for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of geodesic balls with large radius in asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein manifolds.
