We develop the notion of higher Cheeger constants for a measurable set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. By the $k$-th Cheeger constant we mean the value \[h_k(\Omega) = \inf \max \{h_1(E_1), \dots, h_1(E_k)\},\] where the infimum is taken…
The isodiametric inequality is derived from the isoperimetric inequality trough a variational principle, establishing that balls maximize the perimeter among convex sets with fixed diameter. This principle brings also quantitative…
In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics composed by a Riemann metric $\alpha=\sqrt{a_{ij}(x)y^i y^j}$ and a $1$-form $\beta=b_i(x)y^i$ called general ($\alpha$, $\beta$)-metrics. We classify those projectively flat when $\alpha$…
We show that the Cheeger constant of compact surfaces is bounded by a function of the area. We apply this to isoperimetric profiles of bounded genus non-compact surfaces, to show that if their isoperimetric profile grows faster than $\sqrt…
In this paper we study the relationship of hyperbolicity and (Cheeger) isoperimetric inequality in the context of Riemannian manifolds and graphs. We characterize the hyperbolic manifolds and graphs (with bounded local geometry) verifying…

We consider the nonlinear problem \[(P) \;\; I u=f(x,u) \text{ in $\Omega$,} \;\; u=0 \text{ on $\mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus\Omega$ }\] in an open bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$, where $I$ is a nonlocal operator which may be…
We establish sufficient conditions for existence of curves minimizing length as measured with respect to a degenerate metric on the plane while enclosing a specified amount of Euclidean area. Non-existence of minimizers can occur and…
We establish an isoperimetric inequality for the fundamental tone (first nonzero eigenvalue) of the free plate of a given area, proving the ball is maximal. Given $\tau>0$, the free plate eigenvalues $\omega$ and eigenfunctions $u$ are…
We prove the existence of positive lower bounds on the Cheeger constants of manifolds of the form $X/\Gamma$ where $X$ is a contractible Riemannian manifold and $\Gamma<\Isom(X)$ is a discrete subgroup, typically with infinite co-volume.…
The following problem is addressed: A $3$-manifold $M$ is endowed with a triple $\Omega = \big(\Omega^1,\Omega^2,\Omega^3\big)$ of closed $2$-forms. One wants to construct a coframing $\omega = \big(\omega^1,\omega^2,\omega^3\big)$ of $M$…
We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…
In this paper we consider a partial overdetermined mixed boundary value problem in domains inside a cone as in [18]. We show that in cones having an isoperimetric property the only domains which admit a solution and which minimize a…
For every $d\ge 3$, we construct a noncompact smooth $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with strictly positive sectional curvature without isoperimetric sets for any volume below $1$. We construct a similar example also for the relative…
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $\exp(-\phi(\lambda | x|))$, where $|x|$ is the euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi$ is a non-decreasing convex…

Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n\geq 2$. We prove that for any Hermitian metric $\omega$ on $M$, there exists a unique smooth function $f$ (up to additive constants) such that the conformal metric $\omega_g =e^f \omega$…
