Title NEW ESTIMATES FOR EIGENVALUES OF THE BASIC DIRAC OPERATOR

Author Seoung Dal Jung, Soon Chan Kim and Jeong Hyeong Park

(Received December 12, 2008, revised April 16, 2009)
Abstract. On a transverse spin foliation, we give a new lower bound for the square of the eigenvalues of the basic Dirac operator by the smallest eigenvalue of the basic Yamabe operator. Moreover, the limiting foliation is transversally Einsteinian.
