Gardner–Zvavitch dimensional Brunn–Minkowski conjecture

Let cmucmu be an even log-concave measure on cmathbbRdcmathbb{R}^d, let clambdacin(0,1)clambdacin(0,1), and let K,LcsubsetcmathbbRdK,Lcsubsetcmathbb{R}^d be convex and centrally symmetric. Gardner–Zvavitch's dimensional Brunn–Minkowski conjecture. One has

cmu(clambdaK+(1clambda)L)1/dcgeqclambdacmu(K)1/d+(1clambda)cmu(L)1/d.cmu(clambda K+(1-clambda)L)^{1/d}cgeq clambda cmu(K)^{1/d}+(1-clambda)cmu(L)^{1/d}.

This generalizes the Gaussian Brunn–Minkowski inequality from Gaussian measure to all even log-concave measures. Partial results are known, but the conjecture remains open.
