Abstract
We consider Lane–Emden ground states with polytropic index 0 ≤ q − 1 ≤ 1, that is, minimizers of the Dirichlet integral among L^q-normalized functions. Our main result is a sharp lower bound on the L²-norm of the normal derivative in terms of the energy, which implies a corresponding isoperimetric inequality. Our bound holds for arbitrary bounded open Lipschitz sets Ω ⊂ ℝᵈ, without assuming convexity.
