Remarks on the conjectured log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality

Abstract: \footnotesize B\"{o}r\"{o}czky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang recently conjectured a certain strengthening of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for symmetric convex bodies, the so-called log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We establish this inequality together with its equality cases for pairs of unconditional convex bodies with respect to some orthonormal basis. Applications of this fact are discussed. Moreover, we prove that the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality is equivalent to the (B)-Theorem for the uniform measure of the cube (this has been proven by Cordero-Erasquin, Fradelizi and Maurey for the gaussian measure instead).
