Abstract
In this note, under certain regularity and transversality conditions we obtain a sharp lower bound of the first eigenvalue for certain self-adjoint elliptic operators on manifolds with long necks. This result is used in the gluing construction of 3-dimensional Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces along T^2. See [C1], [C2].
