Abstract: In our previous work we introduced, for a Riemannian surface S, the quantity Lambda(S):=infFlambda0(F), where lambda0(F) denotes the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of F and the infimum is taken over all compact subsurfaces F of S with smooth boundary and abelian fundamental group. A result of Brooks implies Lambda(S)gelambda0(ildeS), the bottom of the spectrum of the universal cover ildeS. In this paper, we discuss the strictness of the inequality. Moreover, in the case of curvature bounds, we relate Lambda(S) with the systole, improving a result by the last named author.
