The aim of this paper is to obtain optimal estimates for the first Robin eigenvalue of the anisotropic p -Laplace operator, namely: λ 1 (β , Ω) = min ψ ∈ W 1 , p (Ω) ∖ { 0 } ∫ Ω F (∇ ψ) p d x + β ∫ ∂ Ω | ψ | p F (ν Ω) d H N − 1 ∫ Ω | ψ | p d x , where p ∈ ] 1 , + ∞ [ , Ω is a bounded, anisotropic mean convex domain in R N , ν Ω is its Euclidean outward normal, β is a real number, and F is a sufficiently smooth norm on R N. The estimates we found are in terms of the first eigenvalue of a one-dimensional nonlinear problem, which depends on β and on geometrical quantities associated to Ω. More precisely, we prove a lower bound of λ 1 in the case β > 0 , and a upper bound in the case β < 0. As a consequence, we prove, for β > 0 , a lower bound for λ 1 (β , Ω) in terms of the anisotropic inradius of Ω and, for β < 0 , an upper bound of λ 1 (β , Ω) in terms of β. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
