Polar-dual Neumann eigenvalue sum conjecture for convex domains
Polar-dual Neumann eigenvalue sum conjecture for convex domains
Let be a bounded convex domain containing the origin. Write for its Neumann Laplace eigenvalues, for volume, for the moment of inertia, and for the polar dual of , defined by
Polar-dual Neumann eigenvalue sum conjecture. The scale-invariant quantity
is maximal when is a ball, for each . This conjecture proposes the maximizer for the Neumann analogue of a bounded polar-dual eigenvalue expression; the corresponding Dirichlet quantity is bounded above using John’s ellipsoid theorem, but the maximizing statement for general convex domains is presented as an open problem.
