On the spectral properties of the quantum cohomology of odd quadrics

Let $H^\bullet(\mbox{OG})$ be the quantum cohomology (specialized at $q=1$) of the $2n-1$ dimensional quadric $\mbox{OG}$. We will calculate the characteristic polynomial of the linear operators induced by quantum multiplication in $H^\bullet(\mbox{OG})$ and the Frobenius-Perron dimension. We also check that Galkin's lower bound conjecture holds for $\mbox{OG}$.

Galkin's lower bound conjecture holds for the Grassmannian

Let Gr$(k,n)$ be the Grassmannian. The quantum multiplication by the first Chern class $c_1({\rm Gr}(k,n))$ induces an endomorphism $\hat c_1$ of the finite-dimensional vector space $\mathrm{QH}^*({\rm Gr}(k,n))_{|q=1}$ specialized at $q=1$. Our main result is a case that a conjecture by Galkin holds. It states that the largest real eigenvalue of $\hat{c}_1$ is greater than or equal to $\dim {\rm Gr}(k,n)$+1 with equality if and only if Gr$(k,n)=\mathbb{P}^{n-1}$.
