A conjectured local Liakopoulos–Meyer inequality for convex bodies

From papers

Let KK be a convex body in Rn\mathbb{R}^n and let (σ1,,σm)(\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_m) be an ss-cover of σ[n]\sigma\subset[n]. For each τ[n]\tau\subset[n], let HτH_\tau denote the coordinate subspace associated with τ\tau, and let |\cdot| denote volume. Local Liakopoulos–Meyer conjecture. Then

KmsmaxxRnK(x+Hσ)sj=1m(σσj)!σ!msj=1mKHσj.|K|^{m-s}\max_{x\in\mathbb{R}^n}|K\cap(x+H_\sigma^\bot)|^s\geq \frac{\prod_{j=1}^m(|\sigma|-|\sigma_j|)!}{|\sigma|!^{m-s}}\prod_{j=1}^m|K\cap H_{\sigma_j}^\bot|.

This is presented as a conjectural strengthening or formulation of the preceding inequalities for arbitrary convex bodies and ss-covers; the supplied text does not indicate whether it has been proved or remains open.
