The slicing conjecture for isotropic constants

About 16 years old · traced to

For a convex body K⊆RdK\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d, let LKL_K denote its isotropic constant. The slicing conjecture. There exists a universal constant c3>0c_3>0 such that for every dimension dd and every convex body K⊆RdK\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d,

LK≤c3.L_K\leq c_3.

The paper states that this universal boundedness of isotropic constants is equivalent to the hyperplane-section formulation of the slicing conjecture, and discusses its equivalence with Meckes's weak conjecture and Vempala's question. The conjecture remains open in the source.
