On Blaschke-Santaló diagrams for the torsional rigidity and the first Dirichlet eigenvalue

Abstract

We study Blaschke-Santaló diagrams associated to the torsional rigidity and the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We work under convexity and volume constraints, in both strong (volume exactly one) and weak (volume at most one) form. We discuss some topological (closedness, simply connectedness) and geometric (shape of the boundaries, slopes near the point corresponding to the ball) properties of these diagrams, also providing a list of conjectures.
