%0 Journal Article %T On the remainder term of the Berezin inequality on a convex domain %A Simon Larson %J Mathematics %D 2015 %I arXiv %X We study the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, with $n\geq 2$. In particular, we generalize and improve upper bounds for the Riesz means of order $\sigma\geq 3/2$ established in an article by Geisinger, Laptev and Weidl by refining estimates of the negative second term. The obtained remainder term reflects the correct order of growth in the semi-classical limit and depends only on the measure of the boundary of the domain. As a corollary we obtain lower bounds for the individual eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, which for a certain range of $k$ improves the Li-Yau inequality for convex domains. However, for convex domains one can use different methods to obtain even stronger such lower bounds. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1509.06705v1
