摘要
A general formula for the lower bound of the first eigenvalue on compact Riemannian manifolds is presented. The formula improves the main known sharp estimates including Lichnerowicz’s estimate and Zhong-Yang’s estimate. Moreover, the results are extended to the noncompact manifolds. The study is based on the probabilistic approach (i.e. the coupling method).
