Girao's weighted Alexandrov inequality conjecture for strictly convex hypersurfaces
Girao's weighted Alexandrov inequality conjecture for strictly convex hypersurfaces
Let be a closed, orientable, connected embedded hypersurface, and let denote its mean curvature. For , define
where is the geodesic distance from to , and let be the area of and the area of the unit -sphere. Girao's conjecture. If is strictly convex, then
Equality should hold if and only if is a geodesic sphere. This is an Alexandrov-type weighted curvature inequality in the sphere; the supplied source relates it to work of Girao, but gives no resolution status, so it remains open.
