Several inequalities are discussed. (1) For Schur. s inequality on convex curves of plane, we give a newanalytic proof for it, which maybe is simpler or clearer than known ones; we make further discussions by means ofintegral geometry and get more results. Moreover several related inequalities are put forward and proved. We alsopropose a conjecture which is generalization of Schur. s inequality in case of spherical surface. (2) For Fáry. s inequalityon closed curves of Euclidean space E3, we generalize it into spherical surface (i. e. surface with positiveconstant Gauss curvature) using method of moving frame. (3) For Fáry. s inequality on closed surface of Euclideanspace E3 :
, we enhance it to
using method of moving frame. Moreover thisinequality has been also generalized into 4-dimension case:
Furthermore, a conjectureon further generalization to higher dimension case or general Euclidean space is proposed which requires furtherstudy.
