| dc.description | We consider the pseudodifferential operators $H_{m,Ω}$ associated by the prescriptions of quantum mechanics to the Klein-Gordon Hamiltonian $\sqrt{|{\bf P}|^2+m^2}$ when restricted to a compact domain $Ω$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$. When the mass $m$ is 0 the operator $H_{0,Ω}$ coincides with the generator of the Cauchy stochastic process with a killing condition on $\partial Ω$. (The operator $H_{0,Ω}$ is sometimes called the {\it fractional Laplacian} with power 1/2, cf. \cite{Gie}.) We prove several universal inequalities for the eigenvalues $0 < β_1 < β_2 \le >...$ of $H_{m,Ω}$ and their means $\overline{β_k} := \frac{1}{k} \sum_{\ell=1}^k{β_\ell}$. Among the inequalities proved are: {\overline{β_k}} \ge {\rm cst.} (\frac{k}{|Ω|})^{1/d} for an explicit, optimal "semiclassical" constant, and, for any dimension $d \ge 2$ and any $k$: β_{k+1} \le \frac{d+1}{d-1} \overline{β_k}. Furthermore, when $d \ge 2$ and $k \ge 2j$, \frac{\overlineβ_{k}}{\overlineβ_{j}} \leq \frac{d}{2^{1/d}(d-1)}(\frac{k}{j})^{\frac{1}{d}}. Finally, we present some analogous estimates allowing for an external potential energy field, i.e, $H_{m,Ω}+ V(\bf x)$, for $V(\bf x)$ in certain function classes. | |
