The Gaussian Brunn–Minkowski conjecture for convex sets containing the origin
The Gaussian Brunn–Minkowski conjecture for convex sets containing the origin
Let be the standard Gaussian measure on , defined by
For and sets , write . Gaussian Brunn–Minkowski conjecture. The inequality
holds for any closed convex sets such that . This conjecture proposes a Brunn–Minkowski inequality in Gaussian space under the natural condition that both convex sets contain the origin; without such a positional condition, the inequality fails in general, for example for a Euclidean ball and a sufficiently distant translate.
