Abstract

Let (Tk,hk)=(Sr11×Sr21×...×Srk1,dt12+dt22+...+dtk2)(T^k,h_k)=(S_{r_1}^1\times S_{r_2}^1 \times ... \times S_{r_k}^1, dt_1^2+dt_2^2+...+dt_k^2) be flat tori, rk...r2r1>0r_k\geq ...\geq r_2\geq r_1>0 and (Rn,gE)(\mathbb R^n,g_E) the Euclidean space with the flat metric. We compute the isoperimetric profile of (T2×Rn,h2+gE)(T^2\times \mathbb R^n, h_2+g_E), 2n52\leq n\leq 5, for small and big values of the volume. These computations give explicit lower bounds for the isoperimetric profile of T2×RnT^2\times\mathbb R^n. We also note that similar estimates for (Tk×Rn,hk+gE)(T^k\times \mathbb R^n, h_k+g_E), 2k52\leq k\leq5, 2n7k2\leq n\leq 7-k, may be computed, provided estimates for (Tk1×Rn+1,hk1+gE)(T^{k-1}\times \mathbb R^{n+1}, h_{k-1}+g_E) exist. We compute this explicitly for k=3k=3. We use symmetrization techniques for product manifolds, based on work of A. Ros and F. Morgan.
