Lower bounds for the length of the second fundamental form via the first eigenvalue of the \(p\)-Laplacian (Q6155682)

Let \((M^n,g)\) be an \(n\)-dimensional closed minimal submanifold in \(\mathbb S^m\), the unit \(m\)-sphere, and \(u\) be an eigenfunction of the \(p\)-Laplacian operator on \(M^n\) associated to the eigenvalue \(\lambda\). The authors prove that \[ \int_{M^n}(S+\alpha_{n,p}\lambda^{p/2}-n)|\nabla u|^{2(p-1)}d\mu_g\ge 0, \] where \(p>2\), \(\alpha_{n,p}\) is an explicit constant relying on \(n,p\), and \(S\) represents the squared norm of the second fundamental form. Also, they prove an analogous result when \(M^n\) is a compact minimal submanifold in \(\mathbb S^m\).
