Optimal parameter-dependence conjecture for Brunn–Minkowski convex-hull defects

About 3 years old · traced to

Let n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N} and t∈(0,1/2]t\in(0,1/2], and let A,B⊂RnA,B\subset\mathbb{R}^n be measurable sets of equal volume satisfying

∣tA+(1−t)B∣=(1+δ)∣A∣,|tA+(1-t)B|=(1+\delta)|A|,

where δ∈[0,dn,t]\delta\in[0,d_{n,t}]. Optimal parameter-dependence conjecture. There are computable constants cn,dn,t>0c_n,d_{n,t}>0 such that

∣co⁡(A)∖A∣≤cnt−1δ∣A∣,|\operatorname{co}(A)\setminus A|\leq c_nt^{-1}\delta|A|,

และ

∣co⁡(B)∖B∣≤cnt−n+1δ∣A∣.|\operatorname{co}(B)\setminus B|\leq c_nt^{-n+1}\delta|A|.

The stated powers of δ\delta and tt are motivated as optimal by examples in the source. The conjecture is established in dimension two, but remains unresolved in the generality stated.
