Mahler's lower-bound conjecture for centrally symmetric convex bodies
Mahler's lower-bound conjecture for centrally symmetric convex bodies
Let be a centrally symmetric convex body, and let be its polar body. Define the Mahler volume by
Let be the cube. Mahler's conjecture. In any fixed dimension , is minimized among centrally symmetric convex bodies by .
The conjecture is the lower-bound counterpart to the Blaschke–Santaló inequality, which says that ellipsoids uniquely maximize . The lower bound remains open in general.
