On a familiy of torsional creep problems.
First we recall a Faber-Krahn type inequality and an estimate for in terms of the so-called Cheeger constant. Then we prove that the eigenvalue converges to the Cheeger constant as . The associated eigenfunction converges to the characteristic function of the Cheeger set, i.e. a subset of which minimizes the ratio among all simply connected . As a byproduct we prove that for convex the Cheeger set is also convex.
We consider the -Laplacian operator on a domain equipped with a Finsler metric. We recall relevant properties of its first eigenfunction for finite and investigate the limit problem as .
