A Lichnerowicz estimate for the first eigenvalue of convex domains in Kähler manifolds

Vincent Guedj, Boris Kolev and Nader Yeganefar

Vol. 6 (2013), No. 5, 1001–1012
Abstract

In this article, we prove a Lichnerowicz estimate for a compact convex domain of a Kähler manifold whose Ricci curvature satisfies Ric k for some constant k > 0. When equality is achieved, the boundary of the domain is totally geodesic and there exists a nontrivial holomorphic vector field.

We show that a ball of sufficiently large radius in complex projective space provides an example of a strongly pseudoconvex domain which is not convex, and for which the Lichnerowicz estimate fails.
