On principal frequencies, volume and inradius in convex sets

Abstract

We provide a sharp double-sided estimate for Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants on a convex set, in terms of its inradius and N-dimensional measure. Our results extend and unify previous works by Hersch and Protter (for the first eigenvalue) and of Makai, P\'olya and Szego (for the torsional rigidity), by means of a single proof.
