We consider shape optimization problems of the form $$\min\big\{J(\Omega)\ :\ \Omega\subset X,\ m(\Omega)\le c\big\},$$ where $X$ is a metric measure space and $J$ is a suitable shape functional. We adapt the notions of $\gamma$-convergence…

Motivated by a long-standing conjecture of Polya and Szeg\"o about the Newtonian capacity of convex bodies, we discuss the role of concavity inequalities in shape optimization, and we provide several counterexamples to the…

On a Riemannian or a semi-Riemannian manifold, the metric determines invariants like the Levi-Civita connection and the Riemann curvature. If the metric becomes degenerate (as in singular semi-Riemannian geometry), these constructions no…

In shape optimisation it is desirable to obtain deformations of a given mesh without negative impact on the mesh quality. We propose a new algorithm using least square formulations of the Cauchy-Riemann equations. Our method allows to…
