摘要

We prove the existence of an open set Ω S 2 $\Omega \subset \mathbb{S}^{2}$ for which the first positive eigenvalue of the Laplacian with Neumann boundary condition exceeds that of the geodesic disk having the same area. This example holds for large areas and contrasts with results by Bandle and later authors proving the maximality of the disk under additional topological or geometric conditions, thereby revealing such conditions to be necessary.
