Abstract: We consider the shape optimization problem ${\displaystyle }$min�ig{{mathcal E}(Gamma) : Gammain{mathcal A}, {mathcal H}^1(Gamma)=l �ig},${\displaystyle }$ where ${mathcalH}^1$ is the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure and $mathcalA$ is an admissible class of one-dimensional sets connecting some prescribed set of points $mathcalD=D_1,dots,D_{k}subset{mathbbR}^d$. The cost functional $mathcalE(Gamma)$ is the Dirichlet energy of $Gamma$ defined through the Sobolev functions on $Gamma$ vanishing on the points $D_i$. We analyze the existence of a solution in both the families of connected sets and of metric graphs. At the end, several explicit examples are discussed.
