我们通过构造一个四维zonotope A以及两个线段B和C,证明了关于zonoid类上Minkowski加法下体积是对数次模性的猜想不成立,满足|A||A+B+C|>|A+B||A+C|,其中|·|表示体积。因此,多个相关的局部混合体积、局部Loomis-Whitney、投影体积比及体积表面积比猜想对zonoid也不成立。该反例中的zonotope由一个2-模矩阵生成,我们还证明了当A+B+C是单模zonotope时该猜想成立,并给出了此情形下的等号情况刻画。
英文摘要
We disprove the conjecture that volume is log-submodular under Minkowski addition on the class of zonoids by exhibiting a four-dimensional zonotope $A$ and two segments $B$ and $C$ such that \begin{align*} |A||A+B+C|>|A+B||A+C|, \end{align*} where $|\cdot|$ denotes the volume. Consequently, several related local mixed-volume, local Loomis-Whitney, projection-volume ratio, and volume-to-surface-area conjectures also fail for zonoids. The zonotope in our counterexample is generated by a 2-modular matrix. We also provide a proof of the correctness of the conjecture in the case where $A+B+C$ is a unimodular zonotope as well as a characterization of the equality cases in this setting.
