A Heintze--Karcher inequality with free boundaries and applications to capillarity theory

Matias G. Delgadino, Daniel Weser

Published 2022-10-28Version 1

In this paper we analyze the shape of a droplet inside a smooth container. To characterize their shape in the capillarity regime, we obtain a new form of the Heintze--Karcher inequality for mean convex hypersufaces with boundary lying on curved substrates.
