Isoperimetric inequalities for the logarithmic potential operator

In this paper we prove that the disc is a maximiser of the Schatten $p$-norm of the logarithmic potential operator among all domains of a given measure in $\mathbb R^{2}$, for all even integers $2\leq p<\infty$. We also show that the equilateral triangle has the largest Schatten $p$-norm among all triangles of a given area. For the logarithmic potential operator on bounded open or triangular domains, we also obtain analogies of the Rayleigh-Faber-Krahn or P{ó}lya inequalities, respectively. The logarithmic potential operator can be related to a nonlocal boundary value problem for the Laplacian, so we obtain isoperimetric inequalities for its eigenvalues as well.
