We prove a sharp comparison, with Obata-type rigidity, for all Neumann eigenvalues of one-dimensional $\mathrm{CD}(1,2)$ spaces against the Legendre model, under a convexity condition on the density. It follows that minimizers of the $k$-th Laplace eigenvalue among closed surfaces of Gaussian curvature at least $1$ cannot collapse in the measured Gromov-Hausdorff completion, for every $k\ge2$. We also give a variational proof that smooth minimizers are round.
For $n\leq 18$, we prove that any smooth immersion of the $n$-torus into the closed unit ball in $\mathbb R^q$ has a point at which the spherical average of $\lvert II(v,v)\rvert^2$ is at least $3n/(n+2)$. This answers a question of Petrunin in these dimensions. The proof combines the scalar curvature obstruction for t...
We establish lower bounds for sums of reciprocals of Laplacian eigenvalues for bounded Euclidean domains, spheres and surfaces. For bounded Euclidean domains, we recover a sharp inequality that extends Bucur and Henrot’s upper bound on the second Neumann eigenvalue. For spheres and surfaces, we obtain new Li- and Yau-t...

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a bounded convex domain that is thin around a chosen diameter segment. We compare its Neumann spectrum with the spectrum of that segment weighted by the $(n-1)$-dimensional volumes of its perpendicular sections. We prove an $O(\varepsilon^2)$ comparison of the mean-zero inverse operato...
We prove \emph{a priori} interior $L^2$ bounds for the second fundamental form of area-minimizing currents modulo $2$ in every dimension $n\geq 2$ and arbitrary codimension. The bounds depend only on the dimension, codimension, and an upper bound for the mass. As a corollary, we show that area-minimizing surfaces modul...
We derive optimized upper bounds for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of a bounded domain under lower bounds for the conformal Ricci tensor of Shen and Ye. The method also yields sharp estimates for the bottom spectrum on complete noncompact manifolds, a four-dimensional application involving $Q$-curvature, and local and...
We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the harmonic mean of the first $n$ nonzero Neumann eigenvalues of the Witten-Laplacian on origin-symmetric Lipschitz domains in space forms, endowed with radial log-concave measures. The main novelty is that we establish the sharp harmonic mean inequality under general radi...
