Un probl\`eme de type Yamabe sur les vari\'et\'es compactes spinorielles compactes

Abstract: Let

(M, g, s i)

be a compact spin manifold of dimension

n g e q 2

. Let

l a m b d a_{1}^{+} (i l d e g)

be the smallest positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator in the metric

i l d e g i n [g]

conformal to

g

. We then define

l a m i n (M, [g], s i) = i n f_{i l d e g i n [g]} l a m b d a_{1}^{+} (i l d e g) V o l (M, i l d e g)^{1 / n}

. We show that

0 < l a m i n (M, [g], s i) l e q l a m i n (m S^{n})

On trouve des conditions suffisantes pour lesquelles on obtient l'in'egalit'e stricte

l a m i n (M, [g], s i) < l a m i n (m S^{n})

. Cette in'egalit'e stricte a des applications en g'eom'etrie spinorielle conforme.
