Cube-section affine-cube extremality conjecture
Cube-section affine-cube extremality conjecture
Let , let , and let be a -dimensional linear subspace. Write for the maximum volume among sections that are affine cubes. Cube-section affine-cube extremality conjecture. The maximal volume of a section of the cube by a -dimensional linear subspace is attained on subspaces for which the section is an affine cube; equivalently,
This conjecture gives the proposed sharp upper bound in the cases where Ball's general upper bounds are not known to be tight, namely when does not divide and .
