Beschreibung:Geometric inequalities have a wide range of applications- within geometry itself as well as beyond its limits. The theory of functions of a complex variable, the calculus of variations in the large, embedding theorems of function spaces, a priori estimates for solutions of differential equations yield many such examples. We have attempted to pick out the most general inequalities and, in model cases, we exhibit effective geometrie constructions and the means of proving such inequalities. A substantial part of this book deals with isoperimetric inequalities and their generalizations, but, for all their variety, they do not exhaust the contents of the book. The objects under consideration, as a rule, are quite general. They are curves, surfaces and other manifolds, embedded in an underlying space or supplied with an intrinsic metric. Geometric inequalities, used for different purposes, appear in different contexts- surrounded by a variety of technical machinery, with diverse requirements for the objects under study. Therefore the methods of proof will differ not only from chapter to chapter, but even within individual sections. An inspection of monographs on algebraic and functional inequalities ([HLP], [BeB], [MV], [MM]) shows that this is typical for books of this type
