Optimizing the first eigenvalue of some quasilinear operators with respect to boundary conditions
ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, Tome 23 (2017) no. 4, pp. 1381-1395.

We consider a class of quasilinear operators on a bounded domain ΩR n and address the question of optimizing the first eigenvalue with respect to the boundary conditions, which are of the Robin-type. We describe the optimizing boundary conditions and establish upper and lower bounds on the respective maximal and minimal eigenvalue.
