We study the higher eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for the so-called ∞-eigenvalue problem. The problem arises as an asymptotic limit of the nonlinear eigenvalue problems for the p-Laplace operators and is very closely related to the geometry of the underlying domain. We are able to prove several properties that are known in the linear case p = 2 of the Laplacian, but are unknown for other values of p. In particular, we establish the validity of the Payne-Pólya-Weinberger conjecture regarding the ratio of the first two eigenvalues and the Payne nodal conjecture, which deals with the zero set of a second eigenfunction.
