Abstract:
We prove generalizations of the classical inequalities of Polia — Szegо and Makai about torsional rigidity of convex domains. The main idea of the proof is to apply an exact isoperimetric inequality of for Euclidean moments of a domain. This inequality has a wide class of extremal regions and is of independent interest.
Keywords:torsional rigidity, Euclidean moments of the domain with respect to its boundary, isoperimetric inequalities, convex domains, distance to the boundary of domain.
