Abstract:
Let be a Riemannian submersion of closed manifolds. Let be an eigen -form of the Laplacian on with eigenvalue which pulls back to an eigen -form of the Laplacian on with eigenvalue . We are interested in when the eigenvalue can change. We show that , so the eigenvalue can only increase; and we give some examples where , so the eigenvalue changes. If the horizontal distribution is integrable and if is simply connected, then , so the eigenvalue does not change.
