Costa–Cover conjecture on the concavity of parallel volume
Costa–Cover conjecture on the concavity of parallel volume
Let be a bounded measurable set in , let denote the Euclidean closed unit ball, and let denote Lebesgue measure. Costa–Cover conjecture. The function
is concave on . This conjecture is the parallel-volume analogue of the concavity of entropy power and concerns a Brunn–Minkowski-type property for Euclidean outer parallel sets; its resolution status is not specified in the source.
