Abstract:

It is shown that the isoperimetric deficit of a convex polygon $P$ admits a lower bound in terms of the variance of the radii of $P$, the area of $P$, and the variance of the barycentric angles of $P$. The proof involves circulant matrix theory and a Taylor expansion of the deficit on a compact manifold.
