Viterbo's volume-capacity conjecture for convex domains
Viterbo's volume-capacity conjecture for convex domains
Let be a symplectic capacity and let be a convex domain. Write for the Euclidean volume of . Viterbo's conjecture. For every symplectic capacity ,
Haim-Kislev and Ostrover provided a counterexample using the Hofer–Zehnder capacity for the Lagrangian product of a regular pentagon and its rotation, so the conjecture is false in general. Its restriction to Lagrangian products of centrally symmetric convex bodies remains an open question and is connected to Mahler's conjecture.
