We establish universal inequalities for the eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem on compact submanifolds of Euclidean space, of spheres and of real, complex and quaternionic projective spaces. We prove similar results for the biharmonic operator on domains of Riemannian manifolds that admit spherical eigenmaps (this includes compact homogeneous Riemannian spaces) and finally on domains of hyperbolic space.
