Abstract: In this paper we consider a minimization problem of the type ${\displaystyle }$ I_{�eta,p}(D;Omega)=inf�iggl{int_Omega lvert{Dphi} vert^pdx+�eta int_{partial^* Omega}lvert{phi} vert^pdmathcal{H}^{n-1},; phi in W^{1,p}(Omega),;phi geq 1 ; extrm{in};D�iggl}, ${\displaystyle }$ where $Omega$ is a bounded connected open set in $mathbb{R}^n$, $$ is a compact set and $$ is a positive constant. We let the set $D$ vary under prescribed geometrical constraints and $OmegasetminusD$ of fixed thickness, in order to look for the best (or worst) geometry in terms of minimization (or maximization) of $$. In the planar case, we show that under perimeter constraint the disk maximize $$. In the $n$-dimensional case we restrict our analysis to convex sets showing that the same is true for the ball but under different geometrical constraints.
