The 71st Midwest Partial Differential Equations Seminar May 11-12, 2013 Room TBA East Hall University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI   Abstract Detail   Title: Geometric Inequalities for Hypersurfaces I will begin this talk by recalling the classic inequalities of Alexandrov-Fenchel and Polya-Szego for convex surfaces of 3-dimensional Euclidean space. Then, I will present my joint work with Freire, which generalizes these inequalities -with rigidity- to both a larger class of hypersurfaces and to arbitrary dimensions. I will conclude by mentioning some applications of the results, including a mass-capacity inequality for black holes.
