Gaussian torsional rigidity exponent conjecture for centrally symmetric convex sets

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let Ω0\Omega_0 and Ω1\Omega_1 be open, bounded, centrally symmetric subsets of Rn\mathbb{R}^n, and let t∈[0,1]t\in[0,1]. Write

Ωt=(1−t)Ω0+tΩ1.\Omega_t=(1-t)\Omega_0+t\Omega_1.

The Gaussian torsional rigidity of a set Ω\Omega is denoted by Tγ(Ω)T_\gamma(\Omega). Gaussian torsional rigidity exponent conjecture. One should have

Tγ(Ωt)1/3≤(1−t)Tγ(Ω0)1/3+tTγ(Ω1)1/3.T_\gamma(\Omega_t)^{1/3}\leq (1-t)T_\gamma(\Omega_0)^{1/3}+tT_\gamma(\Omega_1)^{1/3}.

Equality should hold if and only if Ω0=Ω1\Omega_0=\Omega_1. This conjecture extends the proved ball case to centrally symmetric convex sets; the source gives no resolution for the general case.
