Abstract
We generalize Gr\"unbaum's classical inequality in convex geometry to curved spaces with nonnegative Ricci curvature, precisely, to -spaces with as well as weighted Riemannian manifolds of for . Our formulation makes use of the isometric splitting theorem; given a convex set and the Busemann function associated with any straight line, the volume of the intersection of and any sublevel set of the Busemann function that contains a barycenter of is bounded from below in terms of . We also extend this inequality beyond uniform distributions on convex sets. Moreover, we establish some rigidity results by using the localization method, and the stability problem is also studied.
