AN OBATA-TYPE THEOREM ON A THREE-DIMENSIONAL CR MANIFOLD

AN OBATA-TYPE THEOREM ON A THREE-DIMENSIONAL CR MANIFOLD

Abstract We prove the CR version of the Obata's result for the first eigenvalue of the sub-Laplacian in the setting of a compact strictly pseudoconvex pseudohermitian three-dimensional manifold with non-negative CR-Paneitz operator which satisfies a Lichnerowicz-type condition. We show that if the first positive eigenvalue of the sub-Laplacian takes the …
