Weinstock inequality in higher dimensions

Analysis of PDEs 2017-10-16 v2

Abstract

We prove that the Weinstock inequality for the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue holds in Rn\mathbb{R}^n, for n3n\ge 3, in the class of convex sets with prescribed surface area. The key result is a sharp isoperimetric inequality involving simultanously the surface area, the volume and the boundary momentum of convex sets. As a by product, we also obtain some isoperimetric inequalities for the first Wentzell eigenvalue
