A sharp quantitative version of the anisotropic isoperimetric inequality is established, corresponding to a stability estimate for the Wulff shape of a given surface tension energy. This is achieved by exploiting mass transportation theory, especially Gromov’s proof of the isoperimetric inequality and the Brenier-McCann Theorem. A sharp quantitative version of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for...

In [F] Firey extended the notion of the Minkowski sum, and introduced, for each real p, a new linear combination of convex bodies, what he called p-sums. E. Lutwak [Lu2], [Lu3] showed that these Firey sums lead to a Brunn-Minkowski theory for each p ≥ 1. He introduced the notions of p-mixed volume, p-surface area measure, and proved an integral representation and inequalities for p−mixed volume...

Starting from a mass transportation proof of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality on convex sets, we improve the inequality showing a sharp estimate about the stability property of optimal sets. This is based on a Poincaré-type trace inequality on convex sets that is also proved in sharp form.

In this paper, we first introduce a new concept of dual quermassintegral sum function of two star bodies and establish Minkowski's type inequality for dual quermassintegral sum of mixed intersection bodies, which is a general form of the Minkowski inequality for mixed intersection bodies. Then, we give the Aleksandrov– Fenchel inequality and the Brunn–Minkowski inequality for mixed intersection...

We consider a different L-Minkowski combination of compact sets in R than the one introduced by Firey and we prove an L-BrunnMinkowski inequality, p ∈ [0, 1], for a general class of measures called convex measures that includes log-concave measures, under unconditional assumptions. As a consequence, we derive concavity properties of the function t 7→ μ(t 1 pA), p ∈ (0, 1], for unconditional con...

This paper develops a significant extension of E. Lutwak’s dual Brunn-Minkowski theory, originally applicable only to star-shaped sets, to the class of bounded Borel sets. The focus is on expressions and inequalities involving chord-power integrals, random simplex integrals, and dual affine quermassintegrals. New inequalities obtained include those of isoperimetric and Brunn-Minkowski type. A n...

In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing Lp-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the Lp-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we introduce a functional form of this concept, for log concave and s-concave functions. We show that the new functional form is a generalization of the original Lp-affi...

We develop an information-theoretic perspective on some questions in convex geometry, providing for instance a new equipartition property for log-concave probability measures, some Gaussian comparison results for log-concave measures, an entropic formulation of the hyperplane conjecture, and a new reverse entropy power inequality for log-concave measures analogous to V. Milman’s reverse Brunn-M...
