The purpose of this paper is to study complete $$\lambda $$ -surfaces in Euclidean space $${\mathbb {R}}^3$$ . A complete classification for 2-dimensional complete $$\lambda $$ -surfaces in Euclidean space $$\mathbb R^3$$ with constant squared norm of the second fundamental form is given, which confirms a conjecture of Guang (Self-shrinkers and translating solitons of mean curvature flow, 2016, p 74).

It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for \(\mathcal {L}\)-operator, we give a complete classification for 2-dimensional complete self-shrinkers with constant squared norm of the second fundamental form in \(\mathbb R^3\). Ding and Xin (Trans Am Math Soc 366:5067–5085, 2014) have proved this result under the assumption of polynomial volume growth, which is removed in our theorem.

In this paper, we introduce a special class of hypersurfaces which are called $$\lambda $$ -hypersurfaces related to a weighted volume preserving mean curvature flow in the Euclidean space. We prove that $$\lambda $$ -hypersurfaces are critical points of the weighted area functional for the weighted volume-preserving variations. Furthermore, we classify complete $$\lambda $$ -hypersurfaces with polynomial area growth and $$H-\lambda \ge 0$$ . The classification result generalizes the results of Huisken (J Differ Geom 31:285–299, 1990) and Colding and Minicozzi (Ann Math 175:755–833, 2012).

Since $n$-dimensional $\lambda$-hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb {R}^{n+1}$ are critical points of the weighted area functional for the weighted volume-preserving variations, in this paper, we study the rigidity properties of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces. We give a gap theorem of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces with polynomial area growth. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for $\mathcal L$ of $\lambda$-hypersurfaces, we prove a rigidity theorem of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces., Comment: Comments are welcome

In this paper, we study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space and prove that an $n$-dimensional complete self-shrinker with polynomial volume growth in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is isometric to either $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $S^{n}(\sqrt{n})$, or $\mathbb{R}^{n-m}\times S^m (\sqrt{m})$, $1\leq m\leq n-1$, if the squared norm $S$ of the second fundamental form is constant and satisfies $S, Comment: All comments are welcome

In this paper, we investigate an eigenvalue problem for a biharmonic operator on a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space, which is also called a buckling problem. We introduce a new method to construct ``nice'' trial functions and we derive a universal inequality for higher eigenvalues of the buckling problem by making use of the trial functions. Thus, we give an affirmative answer for the problem on universal bounds for eigenvalues of the buckling problem, which was proposed by Payne, Polya and Weinberger in [14] and this problem has been mentioned again by Ashbaugh in [1].

Let Ω be a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space R n . We study eigenvalues of an eigenvalue problem of a system of elliptic equations: { Δ u + α grad ( div u ) = − σ u , in Ω , u | ∂ Ω = 0 . Estimates for eigenvalues of the above eigenvalue problem are obtained. Furthermore, we obtain an upper bound on the ( k + 1 ) th eigenvalue σ k + 1 . We also obtain sharp lower bound for the first eigenvalue of two kinds of eigenvalue problems of the biharmonic operator on compact manifolds with boundary and positive Ricci curvature.

In this paper, we study eigenvalues of Laplacian with any order on a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space and obtain estimates for eigenvalues, which are the Yang-type inequalities. In particular, the sharper result of Yang is included here. Furthermore, for lower order eigenvalues, we obtain two sharper inequalities. As a consequence, a proof of results announced by Ashbaugh [1] is also given.

Let D be a connected bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space R n . Assume that 0 < λ 1 < λ 2 ≤ ··· ≤λ k ≤··· are eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem or an eigenvalue problem for the Dirichlet biharmonic operator: Then, we give an upper bound of the (k+1)-th eigenvalue λ k+1 in terms of the first k eigenvalues, which is independent of the domain D, that is, we prove the following: Further, a more explicit inequality of eigenvalues is also obtained.

In this paper we investigate three-dimensional complete minimal hypersurfaces with constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0). We prove that if the scalar curvature of a such hypersurface is bounded from below, then its Gauss-Kronecker curvature vanishes identically. Examples of complete minimal hypersurfaces which are not totally geodesic in the Euclidean space E4 and the hyperbolic space H4(c) with vanishing Gauss-Kronecker curvature are also presented. It is also proved that totally umbilical hypersurfaces are the only complete hypersurfaces with non-zero constant mean curvature and with zero quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature is bounded from below. In particular, we classify complete hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature and with constant quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature r satisfies r≥ ⅔c.

In this paper, we prove that n-dimensional complete and connected submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector H in the (n+p)-dimensional Euclidean space En+p are the totally geodesic Euclidean space En, the totally umbilical sphere Sn (c) or the generalized cylinder Sn− 1 (c) ×E1 if the second fundamental form h satisfies 2≤n2|H|2/ (n− 1).

For an $n$-dimensional compact submanifold $M^n$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbf R^{N}$, we study estimates for eigenvalues of the Paneitz operator on $M^n$. Our estimates for eigenvalues are sharp., 16 pages

It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. By introducing a generalized maximum principle for $\mathcal{L}$-operator, we give estimates on supremum and infimum of the squared norm of the second fundamental form of self-shrinkers without assumption on \emph{polynomial volume growth}, which is assumed in Cao and Li. Thus, we can obtain the rigidity theorems on complete self-shrinkers without assumption on \emph{polynomial volume growth}. For complete proper self-shrinkers of dimension 2 and 3, we give a classification of them under assumption of constant squared norm of the second fundamental form., Comment: 10 pages, a revised version

In this paper, we study eigenvalues of the poly-Laplacian with arbitrary order on a bounded domain in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and obtain a lower bound for eigenvalues, which gives an important improvement of results due to Levine and Protter. In particular, the result of Melas is included here.

For a compact spin manifold M isometrically embedded into Euclidean space, we derive the extrinsic estimates from above and below for eigenvalues of the square of the Dirac operator, which depend on the second fundamental form of the embedding. We also show the bounds of the ratio of the eigenvalues. Since the unit sphere and the projective spaces admit the standard embedding into Euclidean spaces, we also obtain the corresponding results for their compact spin submanifolds.

In this paper, we study eigenvalues of the closed eigenvalue problem of the differential operator $ L$, which is introduced by Colding and Minicozzi in [4], on an $n$-dimensional compact self-shrinker in ${R}^{n+p}$. Estimates for eigenvalues of the differential operator $ L$ are obtained. Our estimates for eigenvalues of the differential operator $ L$ are sharp. Furthermore, we also study the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of the differential operator $ L$ on a bounded domain with a piecewise smooth boundary in an $n$-dimensional complete self-shrinker in $ {R}^{n+p}$. For Euclidean space $ {R}^{n}$, the differential operator $ L$ becomes the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in stochastic analysis. Hence, we also give estimates for eigenvalues of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator., 21 pages, a final version, accepted for publication in Communications in Contemporary Mathematics

In this paper, we investigate universal inequalities for eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem on a bounded domain in an -dimensional hyperbolic space. It is well known that, for a bounded domain in the -dimensional Euclidean space, Payne, Polya and Weinberger (1955), Hook (1990) and Chen and Qian (1990) studied universal inequalities for eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem. Recently, Cheng and Yang (2006) have derived the Yang-type universal inequality for eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem on a bounded domain in the -dimensional Euclidean space, which is sharper than the other ones. For a domain in a unit sphere, Wang and Xia (2007) have also given a universal inequality for eigenvalues. For a bounded domain in the -dimensional hyperbolic space, although many mathematicians want to obtain a universal inequality for eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem, there are no results on universal inequalities for eigenvalues. The main reason that one could not derive a universal inequality is that one cannot find appropriate trial functions. In this paper, by constructing ``nice'' trial functions, we obtain a universal inequality for eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem on a bounded domain in the hyperbolic space. Furthermore, we can prove that if the first eigenvalue of the clamped plate problem tends to when the domain tends to the hyperbolic space, then all of the eigenvalues tend to .
