In the first part of the paper, we define an approximated Brunn-Minkowski inequality which generalizes the classical one for length spaces. Our new definition based only on distance properties allows us also to deal with discrete spaces.…

Let $K$ be a smooth, origin-symmetric, strictly convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$. If for some $\ell\in GL(n,\mathbb{R})$, the anisotropic Riemannian metric $\frac{1}{2}D^2 \Vert\cdot\Vert_{\ell K}^2$, encapsulating the curvature of $\ell K$,…

Given a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, we define \begin{align*} \mathrm{conv}_k(A) := \left\{ \lambda_1 s_1 + \cdots + \lambda_k s_k : \lambda_i \in [0,1], \sum_{i=1}^k \lambda_i = 1 , s_i \in A \right\} \end{align*} to be the set of vectors…

We prove a quantitative stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality: if $|A|=|B|=1$, $t \in [\tau,1-\tau]$ with $\tau>0$, and $|tA+(1-t)B|^{1/n}\leq 1+\delta$ for some small $\delta$, then, up to a translation, both $A$ and $B$ are…

We consider the Gaussian correlation inequality for nonsymmetric convex sets. More precisely, if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is convex and the origin $0\in A$, then for any ball $B$ centered at the origin, it holds $\gamma_d(A\cap B)\geq…

Given even strongly log-concave random vectors $X_{0}$ and $X_{1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we show that a natural joint distribution $(X_{0},X_{1})$ satisfies, \begin{equation} e^{ - \frac{1}{n}D ((1-t)X_{0} + t X_{1} \Vert Z)} \geq (1-t) e^{ -…

We consider a different $L^p$-Minkowski combination of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ than the one introduced by Firey and we prove an $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality, $p \in [0,1]$, for a general class of measures called convex measures…

Log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality was conjectured by Bor\"oczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang \cite{BLYZ}, and it states that a certain strengthening of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality is admissible in the case of symmetric convex sets. It…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$, and let $\{e_j\}_{j=0}^\infty$ be an orthonormal basis of Laplace eigenfunctions $-\Delta_g e_j=\lambda_j^2 e_j$. Given a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $M$,…

We formulate a plausible conjecture for the optimal Ehrhard-type inequality for convex symmetric sets with respect to the Gaussian measure. Namely, letting $J_{k-1}(s)=\int^s_0 t^{k-1} e^{-\frac{t^2}{2}}dt$ and $c_{k-1}=J_{k-1}(+\infty)$,…
