General Higher Order $L^p$ Mean Zonoids

Metric Geometry 2025-06-04 v3 Functional Analysis

Abstract

In 1970, Schneider introduced the higher-order difference body and the associated Rogers-Shephard inequality. Recently, Haddad, Langharst, Putterman, Roysdon and Ye expanded the concept to a burgeoning higher-order Brunn-Minkowski theory. In 1991, Zhang introduced mean zonoids of a convex body, which was extended to the Firey-Brunn-Minkowski theory setting by Xi, Guo and Leng in 2014. In this note, we extend these LpL^p mean zonoids to the higher-order setting and establish the associated isoperimetric inequality.
