Abstract
We obtain upper bounds for the first eigenvalue of the linearized operator Lr of the r-mean curvature of a compact manifold immersed in a space of constant curvature δ. By the same method, we obtain an upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the stability operator associated to Lr when δ < 0.
