An asymptotic shape optimization problem for Riesz means of Laplacian eigenvalues

Abstract

We review our recent results on the problem of optimizing Riesz means of Laplace eigenvalues among convex sets of given measure in the regime where the cut-off parameter in the definition of the Riesz means tends to infinity. We show that for a certain range of Riesz exponents, the optimizing sets converge to a ball. We also present some new results where we optimize over disjoint unions of convex sets.
