Optimal concavity of the torsion function
In this short note we consider an unconventional overdetermined problem for the torsion function: let $n\geq 2$ and $Ω$ be a bounded open set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose torsion function $u$ (i.e. the solution to $Δu=-1$ in $Ω$, vanishing on $\partialΩ$) satisfies the following property: $\sqrt{M-u(x)}$ is convex, where $M=\max\{u(x)\,:\,x\in\overlineΩ\}$. Then $Ω$ is an ellipsoid.
