We prove stability in the affirmative part of the Busemann-Petty problem on sections of complex convex bodies.
We derive a formula connecting the derivatives of parallel section functions of an origin-symmetric star body in R^n with the Fourier transform of powers of the radial function of the body. A parallel section function (or (n-1)-dimensional…
We present a method which shows that in $\Eb$ the Busemann-Petty problem, concerning central sections of centrally symmetric convex bodies, has a positive answer. Together with other results, this settles the problem in each dimension.
The classical Busemann-Petty problem (1956) asks, whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\mathbb {R}^n$ with smaller hyperplane central sections necessarily have smaller volumes. It is known, that the answer is affirmative if $n\le 4$…
Let $C$ and $K$ be centrally symmetric convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We show that if $C$ is isotropic then \begin{equation*}\|{\bf t}\|_{C^s,K}=\int_{C}\cdots\int_{C}\Big\|\sum_{j=1}^st_jx_j\Big\|_K\,dx_1\cdots dx_s \leq c_1L_C(\log…
The generalized Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies with lower-dimensional smaller sections necessarily have smaller volume. We study the weighted version of this problem corresponding to the physical…
We consider the problem of comparing the volumes of two star bodies in an even-dimensional euclidean space $\mathbb R^{2n} = \mathbb C^n$ by comparing their cross sectional areas along complex lines (special 2-dimensional real planes)…
The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in real Euclidean n-space with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is affirmative for n less or equal to 4 and negative if n…
In this manuscript, we study the inequalities between measures of convex bodies implied by comparison of their projections and sections. Recently, Giannopoulos and Koldobsky proved that if convex bodies $K, L$ satisfy $|K|\theta^{\perp}|…
We study measures $\mu$ on the plane with two independent Alberti representations. It is known, due to Alberti, Cs\"ornyei, and Preiss, that such measures are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. The purpose of this paper…
The Brunn-Minkowski Theory has seen several generalizations over the past century. Many of the core ideas have been generalized to measures. With the goal of framing these generalizations as a weighted Brunn-Minkowski theory, we prove the…
We prove a counterpart of the log-convex density conjecture in the hyperbolic plane.
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $\exp(-\phi(\lambda | x|))$, where $|x|$ is the euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi$ is a non-decreasing convex…
The lower dimensional Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin symmetric convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smaller volume of all $k$-dimensional sections necessarily have smaller volume. As proved by Bourgain and Zhang, the answer to…
Since the answer to the complex Busemann-Petty problem is negative in most dimensions, it is natural to ask what conditions on the (n-1)-dimensional volumes of the central sections of complex convex bodies with complex hyperplanes allow to…
Several years ago the authors started looking at some problems of convex geometry from a more general point of view, replacing volume by an arbitrary measure. This approach led to new general properties of the Radon transform on convex…
Let $L$ be a holomorphic line bundle on a compact complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n,$ and let $e^{-\phi}$ be a continuous metric on $L.$ Fixing a measure $d\mu$ on $X$ gives a sequence of Hilbert spaces consisting of holomorphic sections…
We generalize the ham sandwich theorem for the case of well separated measures. Given convex bodies $K_1,...,K_d$ in $\mathbb{R_d}$ and numbers $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_d \in [0, 1]$, we give a sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness…
We prove an inequality that extends to arbitrary measures the hyperplane inequality for volume of unconditional convex bodies originally observed by Bourgain.
We present in detail Thomas Royen's proof of the Gaussian correlation inequality which states that $\mu(K\cap L)\geq \mu(K)\mu(L)$ for any centered Gaussian measure $\mu$ on $R^d$ and symmetric convex sets $K,L$ in $R^d$.
