Hyperbolic Weinstock inequality for convex domains

From papers

Let Ω\Omega be a bounded convex domain in Hn\mathbb{H}^n. Let Ω\Omega^* be a geodesic ball with partialOmega=partialOmega|partialOmega^*|=|partialOmega|.

Hyperbolic Weinstock conjecture. Is it true that

σ1(Ω)\leqsigma1(Ω)\sigma_1(\Omega)\leqsigma_1(\Omega^*)

and equality holds if and only if Ω\Omega is a geodesic ball?

This asks whether geodesic balls maximize the first Steklov eigenvalue among bounded convex domains in hyperbolic space with fixed boundary measure. The corresponding Euclidean inequality is known for convex domains, but for higher dimensions the hyperbolic statement remains open to the authors' knowledge.
