Abstract: We prove the existence of extremal domains for the first eigenvalue of the Laplace-Beltrami operator in some compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension ngeq2, with volume close to the volume of the manifold. If the first (positive) eigenfunction phi0 of the Laplace-Beltrami operator over the manifold is a nonconstant function, these domains are close to the complement of geodesic balls of small radius whose center is close to the point where phi0 attains its maximum. If phi0 is a constant function and ngeq4, these domains are close to the complement of geodesic balls of small radius whose center is close to a nondegenerate critical point of the scalar curvature function.
