On the optimization of the first weighted eigenvalue

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For Ngeq2, a bounded smooth domain Omega in mathbbRN, and g0,V0inLloc1(Omega), we study the optimization of the first eigenvalue for the following weighted eigenvalue problem: �egin{align*} -Delta_p phi + V |phi|^{p-2}phi = lambda g |phi|^{p-2}phi ext{ in } Omega, quad phi=0 ext{ on } partial Omega, end{align*} where g and V vary over the rearrangement classes of g0 and V0, respectively. We prove the existence of a minimizing pair (underlineg,underlineV) and a maximizing pair (overlineg,overlineV) for g0 and V0 lying in certain Lebesgue spaces. We obtain various qualitative properties such as polarization invariance, Steiner symmetry of the minimizers as well as the associated eigenfunctions for the case p=2. For annular domains, we prove that the minimizers and the corresponding eigenfunctions possess the foliated Schwarz symmetry.
