Isoperimetric Inequalities for Sectors on Surfaces

Hyoungsick Bahn and Sungpyo Hong

Abstract:

We discuss sectors on a surface of curvature bounded above by a constant and derive an isoperimetric inequality for a proper sector on such a surface. With this isoperimetric inequality we derive an inequality involving the total length of the cut locus of a point on a closed surface.
