Álvarez Paiva et al.'s equality conjecture for lattice width

About 3 years old · traced to

Let K∈KonK\in\mathcal K_o^n be an origin-centered convex body and let Λ∈Ln\Lambda\in\mathcal L^n. Write K⋆K^\star and Λ⋆\Lambda^\star for the polar body and dual lattice. Álvarez Paiva et al.'s conjecture.

n+1n!det⁡(Λ) λ1(K⋆,Λ⋆)n≤vol⁡(K),\frac{n+1}{n!}\det(\Lambda)\,\lambda_1(K^\star,\Lambda^\star)^n\leq\operatorname{vol}(K),

with equality if and only if KK is a simplex whose only non-trivial lattice points are its vertices. This is presented as an interesting weaker inequality; the source does not give a resolution.
