Discrete isoperimetric problems in spaces of constant curvature

The aim of this paper is to prove isoperimetric inequalities for simplices and polytopes with $d+2$ vertices in Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic $d$-space. In particular, we find the minimal volume $d$-dimensional hyperbolic simplices and spherical tetrahedra of a given inradius. Furthermore, we investigate the properties of maximal volume spherical and hyperbolic polytopes with $d+2$ vertices with a given circumradius, and the hyperbolic polytopes with $d+2$ vertices with a given inradius and having a minimal volume or minimal total edge length. Finally, for any $1 \leq k \leq d$, we investigate the properties of Euclidean simplices and polytopes with $d+2$ vertices having a fixed inradius and a minimal volume of its $k$-skeleton. The main tool of our investigation is Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic Steiner symmetrization.
