We prove a Payne-Weinberger type inequality for the $p$-Laplacian Neumann eigenvalues ($p\ge 2$). The inequality provides the sharp upper bound on convex domains, in terms of the diameter alone, of the best constants in Poincar\'e…

Given a bounded convex open set $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb R^N$, we prove that the Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants $\lambda_{p,q}(\Omega)$ can be bounded from below by the $p$-power of the ratio between the perimeter of $\Omega$ and a suitable…

We carry on an analysis of the size of the contact surface of a Cheeger set $E$ with the boundary of its ambient space $\Omega$. We show that this size is strongly related to the regularity of $\partial \Omega$ by providing bounds on the…

We show that the maximal Cheeger set of a Jordan domain $\Omega$ without necks is the union of all balls of radius $r = h(\Omega)^{-1}$ contained in $\Omega$. Here, $h(\Omega)$ denotes the Cheeger constant of $\Omega$, that is, the infimum…
