On the smallest Laplace eigenvalue for naturally reductive metrics on compact simple Lie groups

Abstract: Eldredge, Gordina and Saloff-Coste recently conjectured that, for a given compact connected Lie group

G

, there is a positive real number

C

such that

l a m b d a_{1} (G, g) o p e r a t o r n a m e d i a m (G, g)^{2} l e q C

for all left-invariant metrics

g

on

G

. In this short note, we establish the conjecture for the small subclass of naturally reductive left-invariant metrics on a compact simple Lie group.
