Abstract

In 2011 Lutwak, Yang and Zhang extended the definition of the LpL_p-Minkowski convex combination (p1p \geq 1) introduced by Firey in the 1960s from convex bodies containing the origin in their interiors to all measurable subsets in Rn\mathbb{R}^n, and as a consequence, extended the LpL_p-Brunn-Minkowski inequality (LpL_p-BMI) to the setting of all measurable sets. In this paper, we present a functional extension of their LpL_p-Minkowski convex combination---the Lp,sL_{p,s}--supremal convolution and prove the LpL_p-Borell-Brascamp-Lieb type (LpL_p-BBL) inequalities. Based on the LpL_p-BBL type inequalities for functions, we extend the LpL_p-BMI for measurable sets to the class of Borel measures on Rn\mathbb{R}^n having (1s)\left(\frac{1}{s}\right)-concave densities, with s0s \geq 0; that is, we show that, for any pair of Borel sets A,BRnA,B \subset \mathbb{R}^n, any t[0,1]t \in [0,1] and p1p\geq 1, one has μ((1t)pA+ptpB)pn+s(1t)μ(A)pn+s+tμ(B)pn+s, \mu((1-t) \cdot_p A +_p t \cdot_p B)^{\frac{p}{n+s}} \geq (1-t) \mu(A)^{\frac{p}{n+s}} + t \mu(B)^{\frac{p}{n+s}}, where μ\mu is a measure on Rn\mathbb{R}^n having a (1s)\left(\frac{1}{s}\right)-concave density for 0s<0 \leq s < \infty. Additionally, with the new defined Lp,sL_{p,s}--supremal convolution for functions, we prove LpL_p-BMI for product measures with quasi-concave densities and for log-concave densities, LpL_p-Pr\'ekopa-Leindler type inequality (LpL_p-PLI) for product measures with quasi-concave densities, LpL_p-Minkowski's first inequality (LpL_p-MFI) and LpL_p isoperimetric inequalities (LpL_p-ISMI) for general measures, etc. Finally a functional counterpart of the Gardner-Zvavitch conjecture is presented for the pp-generalization.
