In this paper we show that the solution of the discrete Double Bubble problem over $\mathbb{Z}^2$ is at most the ceiling function plus two of the continuous solution to the Double Bubble problem, with respect to the $\ell^1$ norm, found in…
We characterize the critical points of the double bubble problem in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the triple bubble problem in $\mathbb{R}^3$, in the case the bubbles are convex.
Methodology is provided towards the solution of the minimum enclosing ball problem. This problem concerns the determination of the unique spherical surface of smallest radius enclosing a given bounded set in the d-dimensional Euclidean…
In the classical many normal means with different variances, we consider the situation when the observer is allowed to allocate the available measurement budget over the coordinates of the parameter of interest. The benchmark is the minimax…
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",…
The linear natural and forced oscillations of a hemispherical bubble on a solid substrate are under theoretical consideration. The contact line dynamics is taken into account with the Hocking condition, which eventually leads to interaction…
In this note, we first try to prove a uniform lower bound of nodal volume in elliptic homogenization setting. This lower bound is far from optimal. But, we can prove a constant lower bound in dimension two. Motivated by the proof, we extend…
This article investigates the approximation quality achievable for biobjective minimization problems with respect to the Pareto cone by solutions that are (approximately) optimal with respect to larger ordering cones. When simultaneously…
We study a random partial covering model on the $(d-1)$-dimensional unit sphere, where $N$ spherical caps are placed independently and uniformly at random, each covering a surface fraction of $1/N$. This model provides a continuous…
We prove a limit theorem for the the maximal interpoint distance (also called the diameter) for a sample of n i.i.d. points in the unit ball of dimension 2 or more. The exact form of the limit distribution and the required normalisation are…
We consider the isoperimetric problem for clusters in the plane with a double density, that is, perimeter and volume depend on two weights. In this paper we consider the isotropic case, in the parallel paper "On the Steiner property for…
In this paper, we introduce and study the following problem and its further generalizations: given two finite collections of sets in a normed space, find a ball whose center lies in a given constraint set with the smallest radius that…
It is a well known fact that in $\mathbb{R}^n$ a subset of minimal perimeter $L$ among all sets of a given volume is also a set of maximal volume among all sets of the same perimeter $L$. This is called the reciprocity principle for…
Given the eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions, (with $\beta\in\R\setminus\{0\}$ the Robin parameter), we consider a shape minimization problem for a function of the first eigenvalues if $\beta>0$ and a shape…
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 $q \leq n+2$.…
In this paper we study the regularity of the optimal sets for the shape optimization problem \[ \min\Big\{\lambda_1(\Omega)+\dots+\lambda_k(\Omega)\ :\ \Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d,\ \text{open}\ ,\ |\Omega|=1\Big\}, \] where…
We provide a sharp lower bound for the perimeter of the inner parallel sets of a convex body $\Omega$. The bound depends only on the perimeter and inradius $r$ of the original body and states that \[|\partial\Omega_t| \geq…
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…
In this note we prove the existence of a set $E_0\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, different from a ball, which minimizes, among the convex sets that satisfy a suitable interior cone condition, the ratio \begin{equation} \label{eq:0}…
We consider volume-constrained minimizers of the fractional perimeter with the addition of a potential energy in the form of a volume inte- gral. Such minimizers are solutions of the prescribed fractional curvature problem. We prove…
