contents We prove explicit and sharp eigenvalue estimates for Neumann $p$-Laplace eigenvalues in domains that admit a representation in Fermi coordinates. More precisely, if $γ$ denotes a non-closed curve in $\mathbb{R}^2$ symmetric with respect to the $y$-axis, let $D\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ denote the domain of points that lie on one side of $γ$ and within a prescribed distance $δ(s)$ from $γ(s)$ (here $s$ denotes the arc length parameter for $γ$). Write $μ_1^{odd}(D)$ for the lowest nonzero eigenvalue of the Neumann $p$-Laplacian with an eigenfunction that is odd with respect to the $y$-axis. For all $p>1$, we provide a lower bound on $μ_1^{odd}(D)$ when the distance function $δ$ and the signed curvature $k$ of $γ$ satisfy certain geometric constraints. In the linear case ($p=2$), we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee $μ_1^{odd}(D)=μ_1(D)$. We finally study the asymptotics of $μ_1(D)$ as the distance function tends to zero. We show that in the limit, the eigenvalues converge to the lowest nonzero eigenvalue of a weighted one-dimensional Neumann $p$-Laplace problem.
