Eigenvalues of the Kählerian Dirac operator (Q5949961)

Let \(M\) be a closed Kähler spin manifold of dimension \(n=2m>2\), let \(D\) be the Dirac operator on \(M\), let \(\Delta\) be the scalar Laplace-Beltrami operator, let \(\kappa\) be the minimum of the scalar curvature, let \(k=int({N\over{2^m+1}})\), let \(c={1\over{8(2^m+1)^2}}\), and let \(d={1\over{2(2^m+1)}}\). The authors establish the following comparison results for the \(N^{th}\) non-negative eigenvalue \(\lambda_N(D)\) in relation to the \(j^{th}\) eigenvalue \(\lambda_j(\Delta)\): \[ \lambda_N(D)^2\geq{{m+1}\over m}\biggl\{ {\kappa\over 4}+c\lambda_{k+1}(\Delta)\biggr\} \] \[ {1\over N}\sum_{i=1}^N\lambda_i(D)^2-{1\over{m+1}}\Biggl\{ {1\over N}\sum_{i=1}^N\lambda_i(D)\Biggl\}^2 \geq{\kappa\over 4}+d\Biggl\{{1\over k}\sum_{j=1}^k\lambda_j(\Delta)\Biggr\} +c\lambda_{k+1}(\Delta). \] The proof uses a modified connection acting on the spinor bundle and a general spectral comparison method.
