Abstract: | Circular symmetry is defined for ordered sets ofn real numbers: (y)=(y
1,...,y
n). Letf(x) be non-decreasing and convex forx≧0 and let (y) be given except in arrangement. The Σ
i
=1n
f(|y
i−y
i+1|) (wherey
n+1=y
1) is minimal if (and under some additional assumptions only if) (y) is arranged in circular symmetrical order.
