The Reverse-log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality

Abstract: Firstly, we propose our conjectured Reverse-log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality (RLBM). Secondly, we show that the (RLBM) conjecture is equivalent to the log-Brunn-Minkowski (LBM) conjecture proposed by B\"or\"oczky-Lutwak-Yang-Zhang. We name this as reverse-to-forward" principle. Using this principle, we give a very simple new proof of the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality in dimension two. Finally, we establish thereverse-to-forward" principle for the log-Minkowski inequality (LM). Using this principle, we prove the log-Minkowski inequality in the case that one convex body is a zonoid (the inequality part was first proved by van Handle). Via a study of the lemma of relations, the full equality conditions (``dilated direct summands") are also characterized, which turns to be new.
