On some variational problems involving capacity, torsional rigidity, perimeter and measure

Abstract

We investigate the existence of a maximiser among open, bounded, convex sets in ${\mathbb{R}}^d,d\ge 3$ for the product of torsional rigidity and Newtonian capacity (or logarithmic capacity if $d=2$), with constraints involving Lebesgue measure or a combination of Lebesgue measure and perimeter.
