Review text

Let \(D\) be a compact connected domain in \(\mathbb R^ 2\) with diameter \(2a\) and area \(s\); \(a > 0\), \(s > 0\). The authors determine when \(D\) has minimum relative perimeter. In particular, \(D\) is a circular segment if \(0 < s < \pi a^ 2/2\), and \(D\) is defined by five circular arcs of \(\pi a^ 2/2 < s < \pi a^ 2\).
