Monotonicity conjecture for the Cheeger constant of parallel bodies
Monotonicity conjecture for the Cheeger constant of parallel bodies
Let be a convex body, let denote its inradius, and write for its parallel body. The Cheeger constant of a set is , and denotes a Cheeger set of . Monotonicity conjecture. For every , the function
is monotonically decreasing on . As a consequence,
This would extend the monotonicity result suggested by the planar theory to convex bodies in arbitrary dimensions and would improve the available estimate for the contact surface of a Cheeger set. The source provides no resolution of the conjecture.
