In this paper, a new method to construct ''nice'' trial functions was introduced and a universal inequality for higher eigenvalues of the buckling problem was derived by making use of the trial functions.
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate an eigenvalue problem for a biharmonic operator on a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space, which is also called a buckling problem. We introduce a new method to construct ``nice'' trial functions and we derive a universal inequality for higher eigenvalues of the buckling problem by making use of the trial functions. Thus, we give an affirmative answer for the problem on universal bounds for eigenvalues of the buckling problem, which was proposed by Payne, Polya and Weinberger in [14] and this problem has been mentioned again by Ashbaugh in [1].

Spectral theory for perturbed Krein Laplacians in nonsmooth domains

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the perturbed Krein Laplacian (i.e., the Krein-von Neumann extension of − Δ + V defined on C 0 ∞ ( Ω ) is spectrally equivalent to the buckling of a clamped plate problem.

Inequalities for eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem

TL;DR: In this article, the eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem on complete manifolds are studied and a universal inequality for the case of warped product manifolds is shown. But the universal inequalities are not applicable to the complete manifold with Ricci curvatures.

Estimates for eigenvalues on Riemannian manifolds

A Survey on the Krein–von Neumann Extension, the Corresponding Abstract Buckling Problem, and Weyl-type Spectral Asymptotics for Perturbed Krein Laplacians in Nonsmooth Domains

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proved the unitary equivalence of the inverse of the Krein-von Neumann extension (on the orthogonal complement of its kernel) of a densely defined, closed, strictly positive operator, ≥ e ℋ for some e > 0 in a Hilbert space 210B to an abstract buckling operator.
