Abstract:
We present here a survey on some shape optimization problems that received particular attention in the last years. In particular, we discuss a class of problems, that we call mass optimization problems, where one wants to find the distribution of a given amount of mass which optimizes a given cost functional. The relation with mass transportation problems will be discussed, and several open problems will be presented.
Keywords: shape optimization, transport problems, Monge-Kantorovich equations
