Dual Mixed Volumes and the Slicing Problem
We develop a technique using dual mixed-volumes to study the isotropic constants of some classes of spaces. In particular, we recover, strengthen and generalize results of Ball and Junge concerning the isotropic constants of subspaces and quotients of Lp and related spaces. An extension of these results to negative values of p is also obtained, using generalized intersection-bodies. In particul...
متن کاملStar Valuations and Dual Mixed Volumes
Since its creation by Brunn and Minkowski, what has become known as the Brunn Minkowski theory has provided powerful machinery to solve a broad variety of inverse problems with stereological data. The machinery of the Brunn Minkowski theory includes mixed volumes (of Minkowski), symmetrization techniques (such as those of Steiner and Blaschke), isoperimetric inequalities (such as the Brunn Mink...
متن کاملComputing Mixed Discriminants , Mixed Volumes
We construct a probabilistic polynomial time algorithm that computes the mixed discriminant of given n positive definite n × n matrices within a 2O(n) factor. As a corollary, we show that the permanent of an n×n nonnegative matrix and the mixed volume of n ellipsoids inRn can be computed within a 2O(n) factor by probabilistic polynomial time algorithms. Since every convex body can be approximat...
متن کاملMixed Volumes of Hypersimplices
In this paper we consider mixed volumes of combinations of hypersimplices. These numbers, called “mixed Eulerian numbers”, were first considered by A. Postnikov and were shown to satisfy many properties related to Eulerian numbers, Catalan numbers, binomial coefficients, etc. We give a general combinatorial interpretation for mixed Eulerian numbers and prove the above properties combinatorially...
متن کاملBezout Inequality for Mixed Volumes
In this paper we consider the following analog of Bezout inequality for mixed volumes: V (P1, . . . , Pr,∆ )Vn(∆) r−1 ≤ r ∏ i=1 V (Pi,∆ ) for 2 ≤ r ≤ n. We show that the above inequality is true when ∆ is an n -dimensional simplex and P1, . . . , Pr are convex bodies in R . We conjecture that if the above inequality is true for all convex bodies P1, . . . , Pr , then ∆ must be an n -dimensional...
