We show that every isoperimetric set in R^N with density is bounded if the density is continuous and bounded by above and below. This improves the previously known boundedness results, which basically needed a Lipschitz assumption; on the…

The isoperimetric problem with a density or weighting seeks to enclose prescribed weighted area with minimum weighted perimeter. According to Chambers' recent proof of the Log Convex Density Conjecture, for many densities on $\mathbb{R}^n$…

We classify the volume preserving stable hypersurfaces in the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$. As a consequence, the solutions of the isoperimetric problem are tubular neighborhoods of projective subspaces $\mathbb{RP}^k\subset…

We study the isoperimetric problem for anisotropic left-invariant perimeter measures on $\mathbb R^3$, endowed with the Heisenberg group structure. The perimeter is associated with a left-invariant norm $\phi$ on the horizontal…

We prove that for a symmetric, strictly log-convex density on the real line, there are four possible types of perimeter-minimizing triple bubbles. This extends the work of Bongiovanni et al., which shows that there are two possible types of…

Copulas are known to satisfy a number of regularity properties, and one might therefore believe that their densities, when they exist, admit a certain degree of regularity themselves. We show that this is not true in general by constructing…

We consider three-dimensional clusters of identical bubbles packed around a central bubble and calculate their energy and optimal shape. We obtain the surface area and bubble pressures to improve on existing growth laws for…

Consider a set of integers $\mathscr A$ having finite diameter $X$, and a system of simultaneous polynomial equations to be solved over $\mathscr A$. In many circumstances, it is known that the number of solutions of this system is…

We utilize total-internal reflection to isolate the two-dimensional `surface foam' formed at the planar boundary of a three-dimensional sample. The resulting images of surface Plateau borders are consistent with Plateau's laws for a truly…

We have performed high resolution 3D simulations of the Local Bubble (with 1.25 pc finest resolution) in a realistic background ISM, jointly with the dynamical evolution of the neighbouring Loop I superbubble. We can reproduce (i) the size…

We used X-ray tomography to characterize the geometry of all bubbles in a liquid foam of average liquid fraction $\phi_l\approx 17 %$ and to follow their evolution, measuring the normalized growth rate $\mathcal{G}=V^{-{1/3}}\frac{dV} {dt}$…

We establish the Gaussian Multi-Bubble Conjecture: the least Gaussian-weighted perimeter way to decompose $\mathbb{R}^n$ into $q$ cells of prescribed (positive) Gaussian measure when $2 \leq q \leq n+1$, is to use a "simplicial cluster",…

Thanks to ultra fast and high resolution X-ray tomography, we managed to capture the evolution of the local structure of the bubble network of a 3D foam flowing around a sphere. As for the 2D foam flow around a circular obstacle, we…

We study a class of isoperimetric problems on $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+} $ where the densities of the weighted volume and weighted perimeter are given by two different non-radial functions of the type $|x|^k x_N^\alpha$. Our results imply some…

The isoperimetric problem asks for the maximum area of a region of given perimeter. It is natural to consider other measurements of a region, such as the diameter and width, and ask for the extreme value of one when another is fixed. The…

This is a report of a joint work with E. J\"arvenp\"a\"a, M. J\"arvenp\"a\"a, T. Rajala, S. Rogovin, and V. Suomala. In [3], we characterized uniformly porous sets in $s$-regular metric spaces in terms of regular sets by verifying that a…

It is shown that $3$ disjoint sets with fixed Gaussian volumes that partition $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with nearly minimum total Gaussian surface area must be close to adjacent $120$ degree sectors, when $n\geq2$. These same results hold for any…

The structure of polydisperse hard sphere fluids, in the presence of a wall, is studied by the Rosenfeld density functional theory. Within this approach, the local excess free energy depends on only four combinations of the full set of…

Sullivan's multi-bubble isoperimetric conjectures in $n$-dimensional Euclidean and spherical spaces assert that standard bubbles uniquely minimize total perimeter among all $q-1$ bubbles enclosing prescribed volume, for any $q \leq n+2$.…

When a bubble of air rises to the top of a highly viscous liquid, it forms a dome-shaped protuberance on the free surface. Unlike a soap bubble, it bursts so slowly as to collapse under its own weight simultaneously, and folds into a…
