On the first eigenvalue estimate for sub-Laplacian and Kohn Laplacian and Rigidity Theorems on pseudo-Hermitian CR manifolds
In this talk, I will present a CR-version of Lichnerowicz--Obata type theorem in a closed pseudo-Hermitian CR manifolds. It includes the lower bound estimates for the first positive eigenvalue for the both sub-Laplacian and Kohn Laplacian. I will also provide Obata type theorem associated to the sub-Laplacian and Kohn Laplacian on a closed pseudo-Hermitian manifold. As an application, we give some rigidity theorem when lower bound of eigenvalue is achieved. This is based on a joint work with X. Wang and a joint work with Duong N. Son and Wang. I will also talk about some ongoing work in this topic.
