An inequality for the reverse Bossel-Daners inequality is derived by means of the harmonic transplantation and the first shape derivative. This method is then applied to elliptic boundary value problems with inhomogeneous Neumann conditions. The first variation is computed and an isoperimetric inequality is derived for the minimal energy.

We consider the energy of the torsion problem with Robin boundary conditions in the case where the solution is not a minimizer. Its dependence on the volume of the domain and the surface area of the boundary is discussed. In contrast to the case of positive elasticity constants, the ball does not provide a minimum. For nearly spherical domains and elasticity constants close to zero the energy is largest for the ball. This result is true for general domains in the plane under an additional condition on the first non-trivial Steklov eigenvalue. For more general elasticity constants the situation is more involved and it is strongly related to the particular domain perturbation. The methods used in this paper are the series representation of the solution in terms of Steklov eigenfunctions, the first and second shape derivatives and an isoperimetric inequality of Payne and Weinberger cite{PaWe61} for the torsional rigidity.
In this paper the first and second domain variation for functionals related to elliptic boundary and eigenvalue problems with Robin boundary conditions is computed. Minimality and maximality properties of the ball among nearly circular domains of given volume are derived. The discussion leads to the investigation of the eigenvalues of a Steklov eigenvalue problem. As a byproduct a general characterization of the optimal shapes is obtained.
In this paper we study the best constant in a Hardy inequality for the p-Laplace operator on convex domains with Robin boundary conditions. We show, in particular, that the best constant equals $((p-1)/p)^p$ whenever Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed on a subset of the boundary of non-zero measure. We also discuss some generalizations to non-convex domains.
We consider the magnetic Robin Laplacian with a negative boundary parameter. Among a certain class of domains, we prove that the disk maximizes the ground state energy under the fixed perimeter constraint provided that the magnetic field is of moderate strength. This class of domains includes, in particular, all domains that are contained upon translations in the disk of the same perimeter and all centrally symmetric domains.
Let $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^ u$, $ uge 2$, be a $C^{1,1}$ domain whose boundary $partialOmega$ is either compact or behaves suitably at infinity. For $pin(1,infty)$ and $alpha>0$, define [ Lambda(Omega,p,alpha):=inf_{substack{uin W^{1,p}(Omega) u otequiv 0}}dfrac{displaystyle int_Omega | abla u|^p mathrm{d} x - alphadisplaystyleint_{partialOmega} |u|^pmathrm{d}sigma}{displaystyleint_Omega |u|^pmathrm{d} x}, ] where $mathrm{d}sigma$ is the surface measure on $partialOmega$. We show the asymptotics [ Lambda(Omega,p,alpha)=-(p-1)alpha^{frac{p}{p-1}} - ( u-1)H_mathrm{max}, alpha + o(alpha), quad alphato+infty, ] where $H_mathrm{max}$ is the maximum mean curvature of $partialOmega$. The asymptotic behavior of the associated minimizers is discussed as well. The estimate is then applied to the study of the best constant in a boundary trace theorem for expanding domains, to the norm estimate for extension operators and to related isoperimetric inequalities.
