We address two approaches : the first one is a generalization of the initial problem leading to a density method and the other one is a shape optimization procedure via the level-set method. The original goal of those method was to investigate the conjecture according to which the geodesic ball were optimal for the first non-trivial eigenvalue under certain conditions. These computations give some strong insight on the optimal shapes of those eigenvalue problems and show a rich variety of shapes regarding the proportion of the surface area of the sphere occupied by the domain. In a last part, the same algorithms are used to carry the same survey on a torus.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.12389v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.12389v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"numerical-optimization-of-neumann-eigenvalues","repo_url":"https://github.com/eloimartinet/neumann_sphere","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
