Extract

Recently the notion of elementary symmetrization attracted new attention in the field of convex sets (see [L; W]), and it was proved that Minkowski's “Quermassintegrale” are decreased by elementary symmetrization. On the other hand, the concept of Schwarz symmetrization for Borel functions gained new interest from its possible applications in the field of elliptic partial differential equations (see [S1, S2, HI, T1, T2, HY1, HY2, GL1, GL2]).
