Optimization of the first Steklov eigenvalue in domains with holes: A shape derivative approach

The best Sobolev trace constant is given by the first eigenvalue of a Steklov-like problem. We deal with minimizers of the Rayleigh quotient ||u||2 H1(Ω)/||u|| 2 L2(∂Ω) for functions that vanish in a subset A ⊂ Ω, which we call the hole. We look for holes that minimize the best Sobolev trace constan...
