Let M be a Fano manifold, and H^🟉(M; ℂ) be the quantum cohomology ring of M with the quantum product 🟉. For 𝜎 ∈ H^🟉(M; ℂ), denote by [𝜎] the quantum multiplication operator 𝜎🟉 on H^🟉(M; ℂ). It was conjectured several years ago [7,8] and has been proved for many Fano manifolds [1,2,10,14], including our cases, that the operator [c₁(M)] has a real valued eigenvalue 𝛿₀ which is maximal among eigenvalues of [c₁(M)]. Galkin's lower bound conjecture [6] states that for a Fano manifold M, 𝛿₀ ≥ dim M + 1, and the equality holds if and only if M is the projective space ℙⁿ. In this note, we show that Galkin's lower bound conjecture holds for Lagrangian and orthogonal Grassmannians, modulo some exceptions for the equality.
