We are interested in the question of stability in the field of shape optimization, with focus on the strategy using second order shape derivative. More precisely, we identify structural hypotheses on the hessian of the considered shape…
Assume that $D\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ is a bounded domain with $C^1-$smooth boundary. Our result is: {\bf Theorem 1.} {\em If $D$ has $P-$property, then $D$ is a ball.} Four equivalent formulations of the Pompeiu problem are discussed. A…
