Variational problems in a geometric measure-theoretic setting (49Q20)

Abstract: This paper deals with a variation of the classical isoperimetric problem in dimension $Nge2$ for a two-phase piecewise constant density whose discontinuity interface is a given hyperplane. We introduce a weighted perimeter functional with three different weights, one for the hyperplane and one for each of the two open half-spaces in which $mathbb{R}^N$ gets partitioned. We then consider the problem of characterizing the sets $Omega$ that minimize this weighted perimeter functional under the additional constraint that the volumes of the portions of $Omega$ in the two half-spaces are given. It is shown that the problem admits two kinds of minimizers, which will be called type I and type II, respectively. These minimizers are made of the union of two spherical domes whose angle of incidence satisfies some kind of extquotedblleft Snell's law extquotedblright. Finally, we provide a complete classification of the minimizers depending on the various parameters of the problem.
