Abstract
In this paper, we will consider an optimal shape problem of heat insulation introduced by [D. Bucur, G. Buttazzo and C. Nitsch, Two optimization problems in thermal insulation, Notices Amer. Math. Soc. 64 (2017), 8, 830â835]. We will establish the existence of optimal shapes in the class of đ-uniform domains. We will also show that balls are stable solutions of the optimal heat insulation problem.
