Abstract

In this paper, we study the eigenvalue problem of poly-drifting Laplacian and get a general inequality for lower order eigenvalues on compact smooth metric measure spaces with boundary (possibly empty). Applying this general inequality, we obtain some universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues for the eigenvalue problem of poly-drifting Laplacian on bounded connected domains in Euclidean spaces or unit spheres. Moreover, we separately get some universal inequalities for the eigenvalue problem of poly-drifting Laplacian on bounded connected domains in the Gaussian and cylinder shrinking solitons.
