Abstract

In 1980 Yang and Yau [18] proved the celebrated upper bound for the first eigenvalue on an orientable surface of genus γ. Later Li and Yau [12] gave a simple proof of this bound by introducing the concept of conformal volume of a Riemannian manifold. In the same paper they proposed an approach for obtaining a similar estimate for non-orientable surfaces. In the present paper we formalize their argument and improve the bounds stated in.
