Abstract:

We show a sufficient criterion to determine if a planar set $\Omega$ is a minimizer of the prescribed curvature functional among all of its subsets. As a special case, we derive a sufficient criterion to determine if $\Omega$ is a self-Cheeger set, i.e. if it minimizes the ratio $P(E)/\textrm{vol}(E)$ among all of its subsets. Specifically, if a Jordan domain $\Omega$ possesses the interior disk property of radius $\textrm{vol}(\Omega)/P(\Omega)$, then it is a self-Cheeger set; if it possesses the strict interior disk property then it is a minimal Cheeger set, i.e. the unique minimizer. As a side effect we provide a way to build self-Cheeger sets.
