On multiplicity bounds for Schrödinger eigenvalues on Riemannian surfaces

Gerasim Kokarev

Vol. 7 (2014), No. 6, 1397–1420
Abstract

A classical result by Cheng in 1976, improved later by Besson and Nadirashvili, says that the multiplicities of the eigenvalues of the Schrödinger operator (Δg + ν), where ν is C-smooth, on a compact Riemannian surface M are bounded in terms of the eigenvalue index and the genus of M. We prove that these multiplicity bounds hold for an Lp-potential ν, where p > 1. We also discuss similar multiplicity bounds for Laplace eigenvalues on singular Riemannian surfaces.
