Abstract
This paper is devoted to the study of a quantitative Weinstock inequality in higher dimension for the first non trivial Steklov eigenvalue of the Laplace operator for convex sets. The key role is played by a quantitative isoperimetric inequality which involves the boundary momentum, the volume and the perimeter of a convex open set of \({\mathbb {R}}^n\), \(n \ge 2\).
