Isoperimetric Inequality
Pu's inequality bears a curious resemblance to the classical isoperimetric inequality
for Jordan curves in the plane, where is the length of the curve while is the area of the region it bounds. Namely, in both cases a 2-dimensional quantity (area) is bounded by (the square of) a 1-dimensional quantity (length). However, the inequality goes in the opposite direction. Thus, Pu's inequality can be thought of as an "opposite" isoperimetric inequality.

“Nature is unfair? So much the better, inequality is the only bearable thing, the monotony of equality can only lead us to boredom.”
