The Dirac operator plays an important role in geometry of spin manifolds. For example, Lichnerowicz deduced the Â-genus vanishing theorem for spin manifolds of positive scalar curvature. In this note we give an upper bound of the greatest lower bound of the spectrum of the Laplacian on universal covering spaces of closed spin manifolds of nonvanishing Â-genus.
