For a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb R^n$, the inequalities of Rogers-Shephard and Zhang, written succinctly, are $$\text{vol}_n(DK)\leq \binom{2n}{n} \text{vol}_n(K) \leq \text{vol}_n(n\text{vol}_n(K)\Pi^\circ K).$$ Here, $DK=\{x\in\mathbb…

We introduce f-divergence, a concept from information theory and statistics, for convex bodies in R^n. We prove that f-divergences are SL(n) invariant valuations and we establish an affine isoperimetric inequality for these quantities. We…

In this paper we prove different functional inequalities extending the classical Rogers-Shephard inequalities for convex bodies. The original inequalities provide an optimal relation between the volume of a convex body and the volume of…

It is shown that each continuous even Minkowski valuation on convex bodies of degree $1 \leq i \leq n - 1$ intertwining rigid motions is obtained from convolution of the $i$th projection function with a unique spherical Crofton…

We prove sharp inequalities for the average number of affine diameters through the points of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$. These inequalities hold if $K$ is either a polytope or of dimension two. An example shows that the proof…

The Wills functional $\mathcal{W}(K)$ of a convex body $K$, defined as the sum of its intrinsic volumes $\mathrm{V}_i(K)$, turns out to have many interesting applications and properties. In this paper we make profit of the fact that it can…

We extend the notion of John's ellipsoid to the setting of integrable log-concave functions. This will allow us to define the integral ratio of a log-concave function, which will extend the notion of volume ratio, and we will find the…

An affine invariant point on the class of convex bodies in R^n, endowed with the Hausdorff metric, is a continuous map p which is invariant under one-to-one affine transformations A on R^n, that is, p(A(K))=A(p(K)). We define here the new…

John's inclusion states that a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be covered by the $d$-dilation of its maximal volume ellipsoid. We obtain a certain John-type inclusion for log-concave functions. As a byproduct of our approach, we establish…

Let $m(G)$ be the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. Suppose integrable functions $\phi_1 , \phi_2 \colon G \to [0,1]$ satisfy $\| \phi_1 \| \leq \| \phi_2 \|$ and $\| \phi_1 \| + \|…

For positive definite matrices $A$ and $B$, the Araki-Lieb-Thirring inequality amounts to an eigenvalue log-submajorisation relation for fractional powers $$\lambda(A^t B^t) \prec_{w(\log)} \lambda^t(AB), \quad 0<t\le 1,$$ while for…
