First, we obtain a new formula for Bremermann type upper envelopes, that arise frequently in convex analysis and pluripotential theory, in terms of the Legendre transform of the convex- or plurisubharmonic-envelope of the boundary data.…

We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

We solve a class of isoperimetric problems on $\mathbb{R}^N $ with respect to weights that are powers of the distance to the origin. For instance we show that if $k\in [0,1]$, then among all smooth sets $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R} ^N$ with…
