We study an analogue of the large deviation principle for mixed measures associated with a class of $\log$-concave probability measures whose densities depend on the gauge function of a convex body. For convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we…
We prove new versions of the isomorphic Busemann-Petty problem for two different measures and show how these results can be used to recover slicing and distance inequalities. We also prove a sharp upper estimate for the outer volume ratio…
The aim of this paper is to study properties of sections of convex bodies with respect to different types of measures. We present a formula connecting the Minkowski functional of a convex symmetric body K with the measure of its sections.…
We prove several estimates for the moments of arbitrary measures on convex bodies. We apply these estimates to show a new slicing inequality for measures on convex bodies. We also deduce estimates for the outer volume ratio distance from an…
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…
The classical Busemann-Petty problem asks whether smaller central hyperplane sections of origin-symmetric convex bodies necessarily imply smaller total volume. Zvavitch studied this question for arbitrary measures with continuous even…
We prove the following theorem. Let $\mu$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $\mu(K\cap H)\le \mu(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $\mu(K)\le…
We prove stability in the affirmative part of the Busemann-Petty problem on sections of complex convex bodies.
The complex Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin symmetric convex bodies in C^n with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is affirmative if n\leq 3 and negative if n\geq 4. In this article we…
We introduce complex intersection bodies and show that their properties and applications are similar to those of their real counterparts. In particular, we generalize Busemann's theorem to the complex case by proving that complex…
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.
This article belongs to the area of geometric tomography, which is the study of geometric properties of solids based on data about their sections and projections. We describe a new direction in geometric tomography where different…

The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller $n$-dimensional volume. It is known that the answer is affirmative if $n\le 4$ and…
We generalize the hyperplane inequality in dimensions up to 4 to the setting of arbitrary measures in place of the volume. To prove this generalization we establish stability in the affirmative part of the solution to the Busemann-Petty…
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body and for a class of uniformly log-concave measures (that we introduce). These inequalities imply (up to universal constants) the log-Sobolev inequalities…

The paper studies possible functional analogs of classical problems from convex geometry. In particular, we provide some bounds in the functional Shephard, Busemann-Petty, and Milman problems generalizing known bounds in this problems for…
The generalized Busemann-Petty problem asks whether centrally-symmetric convex bodies having larger volume of all m-dimensional sections necessarily have larger volume. When m>3 this is known to be false, but the cases m=2,3 are still open.…
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…
