It is conjectured that for origin-symmetric convex bodies, there exist a family of inequalities each of which is stronger than the classical Minkowski mixed-volume inequality and a family of inequalities each of which is stronger than the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality. The authors prove that these two families of inequalities are ``equivalent'' in that once either of these inequalities is established, the other must follow as a consequence. All of the conjectured inequalities are established for plane convex bodies.
