In this paper we consider the isoperimetric profile of convex cylinders $K\times\mathbb{R}^q$, where $K$ is an $m$-dimensional convex body, and of cylindrically bounded convex sets, i.e, those with a relatively compact orthogonal projection…
The width of a closed convex subset of Euclidean space is the distance between two parallel supporting planes. The Blaschke-Lebesgue problem consists of minimizing the volume in the class of convex sets of fixed constant width and is still…
The isoperimetric ratio of an embedded surface in $R^3$ is defined as the ratio of the area of the surface to power three to the squared enclosed volume. The aim of the present work is to study the minimization of the Willmore energy under…
We investigate the isoperimetric problem for the Voronoi cells of three-dimensional lattices. Using Selling parameters, we derive an explicit closed formula for the scale-invariant isoperimetric quotient $F$ in terms of six non-negative…
For $\Omega_\e=(0,\e)\times (0,1)$ a thin rectangle, we consider minimization of the two-dimensional nonlocal isoperimetric problem given by \[ \inf_u E^{\gamma}_{\Omega_\e}(u)\] where \[ E^{\gamma}_{\Omega_\e}(u):=…
In this article, we prove that there exists a unique perimeter minimizer among all piecewise smooth simple closed curves in $M_{\kappa}^2$ enclosing area $A > 0$ $(A \leq 2{\pi}$ if ${\kappa} = 1)$, and it is a circle in $M_{\kappa}^2$ of…
In part I of this two-part work, certain minimization problems based on a parametric family of relative entropies (denoted $\mathscr{I}_{\alpha}$) were studied. Such minimizers were called forward $\mathscr{I}_{\alpha}$-projections. Here, a…
Let $c, k_1,..., k_N $ be non-negative numbers, and define a measure $\mu $ in the wedge $W:= \{x\in \mathbb{R} ^N :\, x_i >0, i=1,...,N\} $ by $d\mu = e^{c|x|^2} x_1 ^{k_1}...x_N ^{k_N} \, dx $. It is shown that among all measurable…
We consider a nonlocal isoperimetric problem defined in the whole space $\R^N$, whose nonlocal part is given by a Riesz potential with exponent $\alpha\in(0, N-1)$. We show that critical configurations with positive second variation are…
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…
The reverse isoperimetric problem asks for existence and properties of bounded convex sets in a Riemannian manifold which maximise the perimeter under all those sets of fixed volume which roll freely in a ball of some given radius. If the…
Given a convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ in L\"owner position we study the problem of constructing a non-negative centered isotropic measure supported in the contact points, whose existence is guaranteed by John's Theorem. The method…
Defining a condenser in a locally compact space as a locally finite, countable collection of Borel sets $A_i$, $i\in I$, with the sign $s_i=\pm1$ prescribed such that $A_i\cap A_j=\varnothing$ whenever $s_is_j=-1$, we consider a minimum…
Minimization problems with respect to a one-parameter family of generalized relative entropies are studied. These relative entropies, which we term relative $\alpha$-entropies (denoted $\mathscr{I}_{\alpha}$), arise as redundancies under…
We have discovered a "little" gap in our proof of the sharp conjecture that in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with volume and perimeter densities $r^m$ and $r^k$, balls about the origin are uniquely isoperimetric if $0 < m \leq k - k/(n+k-1)$, that is, if…
We define the parametric closure problem, in which the input is a partially ordered set whose elements have linearly varying weights and the goal is to compute the sequence of minimum-weight lower sets of the partial order as the weights…
This paper is concerned with the regularity of shape optimizers of a class of isoperimetric problems under convexity constraint. We prove that minimizers of the sum of the perimeter and a perturbative term, among convex shapes, are C…
We prove the following stability version of the edge isoperimetric inequality for the cube: any subset of the cube with average boundary degree within $K$ of the minimum possible is $\varepsilon $-close to a union of $L$ disjoint cubes,…
In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in the interior of a convex body, i.e., a compact convex set in Euclidean space with interior points. We shall not impose any regularity…
We consider the problem of minimizing the second conformal eigenvalue of the conformal Laplacian in a conformal class of metrics with renormalized volume. We prove, in dimensions $n\in\left\{3,\dotsc,10\right\}$, that a minimizer for this…
