Abstract
Let
E⊂B⊂R2 be bounded, convex sets. The monotonicity of the perimeters holds, i.e.
H1(∂E)⩽H1(∂B). Here we give a quantitative estimate of the difference of the perimeters: it shows how much the perimeter of
B increases when
B becomes larger and larger with respect to
E. We give an example showing that our estimate is sharp.
