contents We address extremum problems for spectral quantities associated with operators of the form $Δ^2-τΔ$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, for non-negative values of $τ$. The focus is on two shape optimisation problems: minimising the first eigenvalue; and maximising the torsional rigidity, both under volume constraint. We establish, on the one hand, a Szegő-type inequality, that is, we show that among all domains having a first eigenfunction of fixed sign the ball minimises the corresponding first eigenvalue; on the other hand a Saint--Venant-type inequality, namely, a sharp upper bound on the torsional rigidity, again achieved by the ball. We further present other properties related to these operators and express the optimality condition associated with the minimisation of the first eigenvalue.
