Abstract

We show the counter-intuitive fact that some weighted isoperimetric problems on the half-space R+N \mathbb{R}^N _+ , for which half-balls centered at the origin are stable, have no solutions. A particular case is the measure dμ=xNαdxd\mu = x_N ^{\alpha } \, dx, with α(1,0)\alpha \in (-1,0). Some results on stability and nonexistence for weighted isoperimetric problems on RN\mathbb{R}^N are also obtained.
