This paper extends our earlier work [arXiv:2309.13595] on the $L^p$ approximation of the shape tensor by Laurain and Sturm. In particular, it is shown that the weighted $L^p$ distance to an affine space of admissible symmetric shape tensors…

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…

It is a well-known result due to Bollobas that the maximal Cheeger constant of large $d$-regular graphs cannot be close to the Cheeger constant of the $d$-regular tree. We prove analogously that the Cheeger constant of closed hyperbolic…
