In this friendly and accessible feast, I will be serving five palatable geometric inequalities. Our first course will be the versatile Brunn–Minkowski theorem, which will lead immediately into the isoperimetric inequality, a staple of the cuisine in this region. Next, Loewner’s inequality and Pu’s inequality will pair beautifully together, and will delightfully play off of the previous dish. Finally, as a refreshing desert, we will enjoy the Blaschke-Santaló inequality, which will leave us with a fulfilled appetite and a budding curiosity about just how creative these dishes may become as our culinary techniques progress.ccc
