In this paper we study a partially overdetermined mixed boundary value problem for domains $\Omega$ contained in an unbounded set $\mathcal C$. We introduce the notion of Cheeger set relative to $\mathcal C$ and show that if a domain…

The Cheeger constant of an open set of the Euclidean space is defined by minimizing the ratio "perimeter over volume", among all its smooth compactly contained subsets. We consider a natural variant of this problem, where the volume of…

In this note we obtain some properties of the Cheeger set $C_\Omega$ asociated to a $k$-rotationally symmetric planar convex body $\Omega$. More precisely, we prove that $C_\Omega$ is also $k$-rotationally symmetric and touches all the…

We consider the unique infinite connected component of supercritical bond percolation on the square lattice and study the geometric properties of isoperimetric sets, i.e., sets with minimal boundary for a given volume. For almost every…

Given an open set with finite perimeter $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider the space $LD_\gamma^{p}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, of functions with $p$th-integrable deformation tensor on $\Omega$ and with $p$ th-integrable trace value…

We prove a lower bound for the Cheeger constant of a cylinder $\Omega\times (0,L)$, where $\Omega$ is an open and bounded set. As a consequence, we obtain existence of minimizers for the shape functional defined as the ratio between the…

In any dimension $n$, we determine the Cheeger constant and the Cheeger sets of the Gaussian mixture $\mu(x) = p\gamma(x-a) + (1-p)\gamma(x-b)$, where $p \in [0,1]$, $a,b \in \mathbb{R}^n$, and $\gamma : \mathbb{R}^n \to (0,\infty)$ denotes…

We prove the sharp inequality \[ J(\Omega) := \frac{\lambda_1(\Omega)}{h_1(\Omega)^2} < \frac{\pi^2}{4},\] where $\Omega$ is any planar, convex set, $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ is the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian under Dirichlet boundary…

Consider a piecewise affine Lipschitz map $\phi : \Omega \to \mathbb R$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ is an open set, and assume that $x \mapsto x + t \nabla \phi(x)$ is injective for almost every $t > 0$. In (J.-G. Liu, R.~L. Pego,…

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…

We are interested in finding sharp bounds for the Cheeger constant $h$ via different geometrical quantities, namely the area $|\cdot|$, the perimeter $P$, the inradius $r$, the circumradius $R$, the minimal width $\omega$ and the diameter…

The object of the paper is to find complete systems of inequalities relating the perimeter $P$, the area $|\cdot|$ and the Cheeger constant $h$ of planar sets. To do so, we study the so called Blaschke--Santal\'o diagram of the triplet…

We work in a class of Sobolev $W^{1,p}$ maps, with $p > d-1$, from a bounded open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ to $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ that do not exhibit cavitation and whose trace on $\partial \Omega$ is also $W^{1,p}$. Under the…

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…

Let $d \geq 2$. The Cheeger constant of a graph is the minimum surface-to-volume ratio of all subsets of the vertex set with relative volume at most 1/2. There are several ways to define surface and volume here: the simplest method is to…

We conjecture that finite graphs with positive Cheeger constant admit a spanning subgraph with positive Cheeger constant and girth proportional to the diameter. We prove this conjecture for regular expander graphs with large expansion. Our…

We study the isoperimetric subgraphs of the infinite cluster $\textbf{C}_\infty$ for supercritical bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\geq 3$. Specifically, we consider the subgraphs of $\textbf{C}_\infty \cap [-n,n]^d$ which have…
