Brunn-Minkowski and Reverse Isoperimetric Inequalities for Dual Quermassintegrals

Shay Sadovsky, Gaoyong Zhang

Abstract

This paper establishes two new geometric inequalities in the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory. The first, originally conjectured by Lutwak, is the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for dual quermassintegrals of origin-symmetric convex bodies. The second, generalizing Ball's volume ratio inequality, is a reverse isoperimetric inequality: among all origin-symmetric convex bodies in John's position, the cube maximizes the dual quermassintegrals.
