Bounds for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of triangles and quadrilaterals
ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, Tome 16 (2010) no. 3, pp. 648-676.

We prove some new upper and lower bounds for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of triangles and quadrilaterals. In particular, we improve Pólya and Szegö's [Annals of Mathematical Studies 27 (1951)] lower bound for quadrilaterals and extend Hersch's [Z. Angew. Math. Phys. 17 (1966) 457-460] upper bound for parallelograms to general quadrilaterals.
