10h-11h: Massimiliano Morini, The isoperimetric inequality for the capillary energy outside convex sets
We study the isoperimetric problem for capillary hypersurfaces with a general contact angle outside arbitrary convex sets. We prove that the capillary energy of any surface supported on any such convex set is larger than that of a spherical cap enclosing the same volume and with the same contact angle at a flat support, and we characterize the equality cases. This provides a complete solution to the isoperimetric problem for capillary surfaces outside convex sets at arbitrary contact angles, generalizing the well-known Choe–Ghomi–Ritoré inequality, which corresponds to the case of an orthogonal contact.
