Topics in geometric inequalities /
Andreescu, Titu,1956-author.
Mushkarov, Oleg,author.
"As a sequel to 113 Geometric Inequalities from the AwesomeMath Summer Program, this book extends the themes discussed in the former book and broadens a problem-solver's competitive arsenal. Strategies from multiple fields, such as Algebra, Calculus, and pure Geometry provide the reader with varied methods useful in mathematics competitions. Starting with the fundamentals such as the triangle inequality and 'broken lines', the book progresses increasingly to more sophisticated machinery such as the Averaging Method, Quadratic Forms, Finite Fourier Transforms, Level Curves, the Erdős-Mordell and Brunn-Minkowski Inequalities, as well as the Isoperimetric Theorem, to name a few. Rich theory and generalizations accompany the aforementioned topics to supply the reader with a rigorous exploration of fields associated with geometric inequalities"--Back cover.
Includes preface by the authors.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 419-424) and index (pages 425-428).
