We deal with the following eigenvalue optimization problem: Given a bounded domain $D\subset \R^2$, how to place an obstacle $B$ of fixed shape within $D$ so as to maximize or minimize the fundamental eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the Dirichlet…

In this paper, we deal with an obstacle placement problem inside a disk, that can be formulated as an energy minimization problem with respect to the rotations of the obstacle about its center, with respect to the translations of the…

We consider the well-known shape optimization problem with spectral cost: minimizing the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian among all subdomains $\Omega$ having prescribed volume and contained in a fixed box $D$; equivalently, we…

In this paper, we consider the optimization problem for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_p$, $1< p< \infty$, over a family of doubly connected planar domains $\Omega= B \setminus \overline{P}$,…

We study the small-hole minimization problem for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue in the square \[ Q=(-1,1)^2, \qquad \Lambda_r(x_1,x_2)=\lambda_1\Bigl(Q\setminus\bigl(\overline{B_r(x_1)}\cup \overline{B_r(x_2)}\bigr)\Bigr), \] where two…

Inside a fixed bounded domain $\Omega$ of the plane, we look for the best compact connected set $K$, of given perimeter, in order to maximize the first Dirichlet eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega\setminus K)$. We discuss some of the qualitative…

We introduce the optimal obstacle placement with disambiguations problem wherein the goal is to place true obstacles in an environment cluttered with false obstacles so as to maximize the total traversal length of a navigating agent (NAVA).…

In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation in an open disk. The uniqueness of solutions is ensured by the well-known weak maximum principle. We introduce a novel approach to demonstrate the existence of a solution…

We study a shape optimization problem for the first eigenvalue of an elliptic operator in divergence form, with non constant coefficients, over a fixed domain $\Omega$. Dirichlet conditions are imposed along $\partial \Omega$ and, in…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded domain satisfying a Hayman-type asymmetry condition, and let $ D $ be an arbitrary bounded domain referred to as "obstacle". We are interested in the behaviour of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue…

In this article we are interested in studying partitions of the square, the disk and the equilateral triangle which minimize a p-norm of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet-Laplace operator. The extremal case of the infinity norm, where we…

We consider a shape optimization problem related to the persistence threshold for a biological species, the unknown shape corresponding to the zone of the habitat which is favorable to the population. Analytically, this translates in the…

This paper is devoted to the understanding of regularisation process in the shape optimization approach to the so-called Dirichlet inverse obstacle problem for elliptic operators. More precisely, we study two different regularisations of…

The Boundary Element Method (BEM) is implemented using piecewise linear elements to solve the two-dimensional Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation posed on a disk. A benefit of the BEM as opposed to many other numerical solution…

We prove that among all doubly connected domains of $\R^n$ bounded by two spheres of given radii, $Z(t)$, the trace of the heat kernel with Dirichlet boundary conditions, achieves its minimum when the spheres are concentric (i.e., for the…

We study the double obstacle problem for p-harmonic functions on arbitrary bounded nonopen sets E in quite general metric spaces. The Dirichlet and single obstacle problems are included as special cases. We obtain Adams' criterion for the…

We consider the following eigenvalue optimization in the composite membrane problem with fractional Laplacian: given a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $\alpha>0$ and $0<A<|\Omega|$, find a subset $D\subset \Omega$ of area $A$…

Maximization and minimization problems of the principle eigenvalue for divergence form second order elliptic operators with the Dirichlet boundary condition are considered. The principal eigen map of such elliptic operators is introduced…

We consider constellations of disks which are unions of disjoint hyperbolic disks in the unit disk with fixed radii and unfixed centers. We study the problem of maximizing the conformal capacity of a constellation with a fixed number of…

Motivated by relativistic materials, we develop a numerical scheme to support existing or state new conjectures in the spectral optimisation of eigenvalues of the Dirac operator, subject to infinite-mass boundary conditions. We study the…
