Abstract

Results are obtained for two minimization problems: Ik(c)=inf{λk(Ω):Ω open, convex in Rm, T(Ω)=c},I_k(c)=\inf \{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{open, convex in}\ \mathbb{R}^m,\ \mathcal{T}(\Omega)= c \}, and Jk(c)=inf{λk(Ω):Ω quasi-open in Rm,Ω1,P(Ω)c},J_k(c)=\inf\{\lambda_k(\Omega): \Omega\ \textup{quasi-open in}\ \mathbb{R}^m, |\Omega|\le 1, \mathcal {P}(\Omega)\le c \}, where c>0c>0, λk(Ω)\lambda_k(\Omega) is the kk'th eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian acting in L2(Ω)L^2(\Omega), Ω|\Omega| denotes the Lebesgue measure of Ω\Omega, P(Ω)\mathcal{P}(\Omega) denotes the perimeter of Ω\Omega, and where T\mathcal{T} is in a suitable class set functions. The latter include for example the perimeter of Ω\Omega, and the moment of inertia of Ω\Omega with respect to its center of mass.
