Abstract:

We consider shape optimization problems of the form

$\min\left\{J(\Omega):\ \Omega\subset X,\ m(\Omega)\le c\right\},$

where $X$ is a metric measure space and $J$ is a suitable shape functional. We adapt the notions of $\gamma$-convergence and weak $\gamma$-convergence to this new general abstract setting to prove the existence of an optimal domain. Several examples are pointed out and discussed.

Keywords: shape optimization, capacity, eigenvalues, Sobolev spaces, metric spaces
