Abstract: We consider the sharp Sobolev-Poincar'e constant for the embedding of $W_0^{1,2}(Omega)$ into $L^q(Omega)$. We show that such a constant exhibits an unexpected dual variational formulation, in the range $1<q<2$. Namely, this can be written as a convex minimization problem, under a divergence--type constraint. This is particularly useful in order to prove lower bounds. The result generalizes what happens for the torsional rigidity (corresponding to $q=1$) and extends up to the case of the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplacian (i.e. to $q=2$).
