We define homological area-radius pairs with surface diagrams. Using these, we adapt a proof of Gersten and Short \cite{gersten2002} to obtain a homological isoperimetric inequality for subgroups of type $FP_2$ which appear as kernels of…
In this paper we prove that among all convex domains of the plane with two axis of symmetry, the maximizer of the first non trivial Neumann eigenvalue $\mu_1$ with perimeter constraint is achieved by the square and the equilateral triangle.…
In this article, we will study the isoperimetric problem by introducing a mean curvature type flow in the Riemannian manifold endowed with a non-trivial conformal vector field. This flow preserves the volume of the bounded domain enclosed…
In this paper we introduce the Constant Width Measure Set, which measures the constant width property of an oval, i.e. the planar simple closed strictly convex curve. We study its geometrical properties. We find the exact relation between…
We study non-compact scaling limits of uniform random planar quadrangulations with a boundary when their size tends to infinity. Depending on the asymptotic behavior of the boundary size and the choice of the scaling factor, we observe…
We study the Cheeger constant and Cheeger set for domains obtained as strip-like neighbourhoods of curves in the plane. If the reference curve is complete and finite (a "curved annulus"), then the strip itself is a Cheeger set and the…
Substatic Riemannian manifolds with minimal boundary arise naturally in General Relativity as spatial slices of static spacetimes satisfying the Null Energy Condition. Moreover, they constitute a vast generalization of nonnegative Ricci…
There exist tilings of the plane with pairwise noncongruent triangles of equal area and bounded perimeter. Analogously, there exist tilings with triangles of equal perimeter, the areas of which are bounded from below by a positive constant.…
We are concerned with the global bifurcation analysis of positive solutions to free boundary problems arising in plasma physics. We show that in general, in the sense of domain variations, the following alternative holds: either the shape…
Isoperimetric regions minimize the size of their boundaries among all regions with the same volume. In Euclidean and Hyperbolic space, isoperimetric regions are round balls. We show that isoperimetric regions in two and three-dimensional…
This brief note addresses the free boundary problem arising from the steady two-dimensional seepage flow through a rectangular dam. The flow problem consists in finding the free boundary location, and the velocity and pressure fields. The…
We rigorously establish the existence of many free boundary minimal annuli with boundary in a geodesic sphere of $\mathbb{S}^3$. These arise as compact subdomains of a one-parameter family of complete minimal immersions of $\mathbb{R}…
We aim to study the classical Rosenthal-Szasz inequality for a plane whose geometry is given by a norm. This inequality states that the bodies of constant width have the largest perimeter among all planar convex bodies of given diameter. In…
The central aim of this paper is to study (regional) fractional Poincar\'e type inequalities on unbounded domains satisfying the finite ball condition. Both existence and non existence type results are established depending on various…
We establish a quantitative version of the isoperimetric inequality for the torsion of multiply connected domains, among sets with given area and with given joint area of the holes. Since the optimal shape is the annulus, we investigate how…
A singularly perturbed free boundary problem arising from a real problem associated with a Radiographic Integrated Test Stand concerns a solution of the equation $\Delta u = f(u)$ in a domain $\Omega$ subject to constant boundary data,…
We give a refinement of the quantitative isoperimetric inequality. We prove that the isoperimetric gap controls not only the Fraenkel asymmetry but also the oscillation of the boundary.
This paper investigates positive harmonic functions on a domain which contains an infinite cylinder, and whose boundary is contained in the union of parallel hyperplanes. (In the plane its boundary consists of two sets of vertical…
We construct isoperimetric regions from separating hypersurfaces in closed manifolds. This yields isoperimetric boundaries exhibiting a wide variety of topological types and singular sets.
We prove a long standing conjecture concerning the fencing problem in the plane: among planar convex sets of given area, prove that the disc, and only the disc maximizes the length of the shortest area-bisecting curve. Although it may look…
