On a version of the slicing problem for the surface area of convex bodies

We study the slicing inequality for the surface area instead of volume. This is the question whether there exists a constant $α_n$ depending (or not) on the dimension $n$ so that $$S(K)\leqα_n|K|^{\frac{1}{n}}\max_{ξ\in S^{n-1}}S(K\capξ^{\perp })$$ where $S$ denotes surface area and $|\cdot |$ denotes volume. For any fixed dimension we provide a negative answer to this question, as well as to a weaker version in which sections are replaced by projections onto hyperplanes. We also study the same problem for sections and projections of lower dimension and for all the quermassintegrals of a conve…

Improved versions of some Furstenberg type slicing Theorems for self-affine carpets

Let $F$ be a Bedford-McMullen carpet defined by independent integer exponents. We prove that for every line $\ell \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ not parallel to the major axes, $$ \dim_H (\ell \cap F) \leq \max \left\lbrace 0,\, \frac{\dim_H F}{\dim^* F} \cdot (\dim^* F-1) \right\rbrace$$ and $$ \dim_P (\ell \cap F) \leq \max \left\lbrace 0,\, \frac{\dim_P F}{\dim^* F} \cdot (\dim^* F-1) \right\rbrace$$ where $\dim^*$ is Furstenberg's star dimension (maximal dimension of microsets). This improves the state of art results on Furstenberg type slicing Theorems for affine invariant carpets.

A discrete version of Koldobsky's slicing inequality

Let $\# K$ be a number of integer lattice points contained in a set $K$. In this paper we prove that for each $d\in {\mathbb N}$ there exists a constant $C(d)$ depending on $d$ only, such that for any origin-symmetric convex body $K \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ containing $d$ linearly independent lattice points $$ \# K \leq C(d)\max(\# (K\cap H))\, {\rm vol}_d(K)^{\frac{d-m}{d}}, $$ where the maximum is taken over all $m$-dimensional subspaces of ${\mathbb R}^d$. We also prove that $C(d)$ can be chosen asymptotically of order $O(1)^{d}d^{d-m}$. In addition, we show that if $K$ is an unconditional co…

An isomorphic version of the Busemann-Petty problem for arbitrary measures

We prove the following theorem. Let $μ$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $μ(K\cap H)\le μ(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $μ(K)\le \sqrt{n} μ(L).$ We also prove this result with better constants for some special classes of measures and bodies. Finally, we prove a version of the hyperplane inequality for convex measures.

Isomorphic Busemann-Petty problem for sections of proportional dimensions

We formulate an isomorphic version of the Busemann-Petty problem and solve it in affirmative in the case of sections of proportional dimensions.
