A minimax formula for the principal eigenvalues of Dirichlet problems and its applications
A minimax formula for the principal eigenvalue of a nonselfadjoint Dirichlet problem was established in [8,18]. In this paper we generalize this formula to the case where an indefinite weight is present. Our proof requires less regularity and, unlike that in [8,18], does not rely on semigroups theor...
