Abstract: This paper deals with various questions related to the isoperimetric problem for a smooth positive measure in a domain of R^N. We find some necessary conditions on the density that render the intersection of half spaces with the domain a minimum in the isoperimetric problem. We then identify the unique isoperimetric set for a class of factorized finite measures. These results are finally used in order to get sharp inequalities in weighted Sobolev spaces and a comparison result for solutions to boundary value problems for degenerate elliptic equations.
