Abstract:
Given the eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions, (with $\beta\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$ the Robin parameter), we consider a shape minimization problem for a function of the first eigenvalues if $\beta>0$ and a shape maximization problem if $\beta<0$. Both problems are settled in a suitable class of generalized polygons with an upper bound on the number of sides, under either perimeter or volume constraint.
