Abstract:

In this paper, we study the problem of minimizing the weighted total variation of a normalized $BV$ function $u$ plus a penalization on the weighted $L^1$ norm of the trace of $u$ on the Neumann part ${{\Gamma}}$ of the boundary, while assuming a Dirichlet condition $u=0$ on the complement part ${{\Gamma^c}} \subset \partial\Omega$. We show that this problem is a relaxation of some shape optimization problem of type ${\it{Cheeger}}$, that is both problems have the same minimum. Then, we prove that the level sets of minimizers are optimal sets. Finally, we will also study the regularity as well as some properties of these optimal sets.
