On the second eigenvalue of a Hardy-Sobolev operator

K. Sreenadh

Abstract:
In this note, we study the variational characterization and some properties of the second smallest eigenvalue of the Hardy-Sobolev operator
$L_{\mu}:=-\Delta_{p}-\frac{\mu}{|x|^p}$
with respect to an indefinite weight $V(x)$.
