Geometric inequalities are mathematical statements that establish relationships between different geometric quantities, such as lengths, areas, angles, and volumes. These inequalities often provide useful bounds or constraints on these quantities and can be applied in various fields, including geometry, optimization, and analysis. Some common types of geometric inequalities include: 1. **Triangle Inequalities**: In any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.
The triangle inequalities are fundamental properties of triangles related to the lengths of their sides. They state that, for any triangle with sides of lengths \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\), the following inequalities must hold: 1. \(a + b > c\) 2. \(a + c > b\) 3.
Berger's isoembolic inequality is a result in the field of differential geometry, particularly concerning Riemannian manifolds. The inequality deals with the comparison of volumes of geodesic balls (or "volumes" in a more general sense) in Riemannian manifolds that have certain curvature bounds.
The Besicovitch inequality is a result in mathematical analysis, particularly in the field of geometric measure theory and harmonic analysis.

The Gaussian correlation inequality is a result concerning the behavior of Gaussian random variables and their correlations. Specifically, it states that if \( X_1 \) and \( X_2 \) are two jointly distributed Gaussian random variables with the same variance, then their correlation satisfies a specific property regarding their joint distribution. Formally, if \( X_1 \) and \( X_2 \) are standard normal random variables (i.e.
Gromov's systolic inequality is a fundamental result in differential geometry concerning the relationship between the volume and the topology of essential manifolds. Specifically, it addresses the concept of the systole of a Riemannian manifold, which is defined as the length of the shortest nontrivial loop (or closed curve) in the manifold.
The Hitchin–Thorpe inequality is a result in the field of differential geometry, particularly in the study of Riemannian manifolds. It provides a relationship between various geometric and topological properties of compact Riemannian manifolds with a specific focus on their curvature.
Ptolemy's inequality is a mathematical statement that relates the lengths of the sides and diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral. A cyclic quadrilateral is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) where all vertices lie on the circumference of a single circle.
Pu's inequality is a result in the field of real analysis, particularly concerning measures and integration. It is associated with the properties of measurable functions and the way in which their integrals behave relative to their suprema. Specifically, Pu's inequality provides a bound on the integral of a non-negative measurable function.
The Pólya–Szegő inequality is a result in the field of mathematics, particularly in the area of functional analysis and inequalities. It provides a comparison of certain integral expressions that involve non-negative functions, and it is often used in the context of orthogonal polynomials and convex functions. More specifically, the Pólya–Szegő inequality deals with the integrals of non-negative functions defined on the interval \([0, 1]\).

Symmetrization methods refer to a class of mathematical techniques used in various fields such as analysis, probability, and geometry to simplify problems by exploiting symmetries. These methods often transform a given object into a more symmetric one, making it easier to study properties, derive estimates, or provide proofs. ### Key Concepts of Symmetrization Methods: 1. **Symmetrization in Mathematics**: This generally involves replacing a non-symmetric object (like a function or a shape) with a symmetric one.
Toponogov's theorem is a result in the field of differential geometry, specifically relating to the geometry of non-Euclidean spaces such as hyperbolic spaces. It provides a condition for comparing triangles in a geodesic space with triangles in Euclidean space.
