Abstract: Consider the mean field equation with critical parameter 8pi in a bounded smooth domain Omega. Denote by E8pi(Omega) the infimum of the associated functional I8pi(Omega). We call E8pi(Omega) the "energy" of the domain Omega. We prove that if the area of Omega is equal to pi, then the energy of Omega is always greater or equal to the energy of the unit disk and equality holds if and only if Omega is the unit disk. We also give a sufficient condition for the existence of a minimizer for I8pi(Omega).
