Perimeter-scaled Robin eigenvalue lower bound for the disk

Let Ω\Omega be a convex bounded planar domain, let L(Ω)L(\Omega) denote its perimeter, and let λ1(Ω;α/L(Ω))\lambda_1(\Omega;\alpha/L(\Omega)) be its first Robin eigenvalue with perimeter-scaled parameter. For domains of a fixed area and αR\alpha\in\mathbb R, the perimeter-scaled Robin lower-bound conjecture. The disk minimises

λ1(Ω;αL(Ω))\lambda_1\left(\Omega;\frac{\alpha}{L(\Omega)}\right)

among all such domains. This asks for a perimeter-scaled analogue of Bossel's Rayleigh-type lower bound; its resolution is not supplied here.
