On the optimization of the Robin eigenvalues in some classes of polygons

Analysis of PDEs 2025-09-23 v2

Abstract

Given the eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions, (with βR{0}\beta\in\R\setminus\{0\} the Robin parameter), we consider a shape minimization problem for a function of the first eigenvalues if β>0\beta>0 and a shape maximization problem if β<0\beta<0. Both problems are settled in a suitable class of generalized polygons with an upper bound on the number of sides, under either perimeter or volume constraint.
