We consider polynomial approximations of z-bar to better understand the torsional rigidity of polygons. Our main focus is on low degree approximations and associated extremal problems that are analogous to Polya's conjecture for torsional…

In this paper, given a convex, bounded, open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ we prove a sharp inequality involving the Laplacian torsional rigidity and both the perimeter and the measure of the domain. Our result generalizes to arbitrary…

We generalize an inequality for convex lattice polygons -- aka toric surfaces -- to general rational surfaces.

We obtain some sharp estimates for the $p$-torsion of convex planar domains in terms of their area, perimeter, and inradius. The approach we adopt relies on the use of web functions (i.e. functions depending only on the distance from the…

In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem for smooth strictly convex domains in Euclidean spaces.

We consider shape functionals of the form $F_q(\Omega)=P(\Omega)T^q(\Omega)$ on the class of open sets of prescribed Lebesgue measure. Here $q>0$ is fixed, $P(\Omega)$ denotes the perimeter of $\Omega$ and $T(\Omega)$ is the torsional…

We consider the torsional rigidity and the principal eigenvalue related to the $p$-Laplace operator. The goal is to find upper and lower bounds to products of suitable powers of the quantities above in various classes of domains. The limit…

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…

We exploit the equality of Bergman analytic content and torsional rigidity of a simply connected domain to develop a new method for calculating these quantities. This method is particularly suitable for the case when the region in question…

It is conjectured that all decomposable (i.e. interior can be triangulated without adding new vertices) polyhedra with vertices in convex position are infinitesimally rigid and only recently has it been shown that this is indeed true under…

This paper explores the behavior of the torsional rigidity of a precompact domain as the ambient manifold evolves under a geometric flow. Specifically, we derive bounds on torsional rigidity under the Ricci Flow for Heisenberg spaces and…

We discuss various phenomena of tangency in projective and convex geometry.

We generalize Polya-Szego inequality to integrands depending on $u$ and its gradient. Under minimal additional assumptions, we establish equality cases in this generalized inequality. We also give relevant applications of our study to a…

The main motivation here is a question: whether any polyhedron which can be subdivided into convex pieces without adding a vertex, and which has the same vertices as a convex polyhedron, is infinitesimally rigid. We prove that it is indeed…

In this paper we generalize some classical estimates involving the torsional rigidity and the principal frequency of a convex domain to a class of functionals related to some anisotropic non linear operators.

We overview some of the foundations of the so-called henselian rigid geometry, and show that henselian rigid geometry has many aspects, useful in applications, that one cannot expect in the usual rigid geometry. This is done by announcing a…

In this paper we prove the Polya-Inequality for integrands depending on a function u and its gradient. We also establish cases of equality in this symmetrization inequality.
