Corollaries include Szeg\\H{o}'s sharp upper bound on the second eigenvalue of the Neumann Laplacian under area normalization, and Weinstock's inequality for the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue for simply-connected domains of given perimeter.\n  The first Robin eigenvalue is maximal, under the same conditions, for the degenerate rectangle.
