Abstract

In this paper we analyze the capacitary potential due to a charged body in order to deduce sharp analytic and geometric inequalities, whose equality cases are saturated by domains with spherical symmetry. In particular, for a regular bounded domain ΩRn\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n, n3n\geq 3, we prove that if the mean curvature HH of the boundary obeys the condition [1Cap(Ω)]1n2Hn1[1Cap(Ω)]1n2, - \bigg[ \frac{1}{\text{Cap}(\Omega)} \bigg]^{\frac{1}{n-2}} \leq \frac{H}{n-1} \leq \bigg[ \frac{1}{\text{Cap}(\Omega)} \bigg]^{\frac{1}{n-2}} , then Ω\Omega is a round ball.
