Abstract: In this paper, we study the spectrum of the weighted Laplacian (also called Bakry-Emery or Witten Laplacian) $L_{s}igma$ on a compact, connected, smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ endowed with a measure $sigmad{v}_g$. First, we obtain upper bounds for the $k-$th eigenvalue of $L_{sigma}$ which are consistent with the power of $k$ in Weyl's formula. These bounds depend on integral norms of the density $sigma$, and in the second part of the article, we give examples showing that this dependence is, in some sense, sharp. As a corollary, we get bounds for the eigenvalues of Laplace type operators, such as the Schr"{o}dinger operator or the Hodge Laplacian on $p-$forms. In the special case of the weighted Laplacian on the sphere, we get a sharp inequality for the first nonzero eigenvalue which extends Hersch's inequality.
