Abstract

We consider - in the setting of geometric measure theory - hypersurfaces T (of codimension one) with prescribed boundary B in Euclidean n+1 space which maximize volume (i.e. T together with a fixed hypersurface T0 encloses oriented volume) subject to a mass constraint. We prove existence and optimal regularity of solutions T of such variational problems and we show that, on the regular part of its support, T is a classical hypersurface of constant mean curvature. Wc also prove that the solutions T become more and more spherical as the value m of the mass constraint approaches ∞.
