Complex affine isoperimetric inequalities (Q2274397)

\textit{C. M. Petty}'s projection inequality [in: Proc. Conf. Convexity Combinat. Geometry. Norman, OK: Univ. Oklahoma. 26--41 (1971; Zbl 0245.52007)] says that, among convex bodies of given volume, the ones whose polar projection bodies have maximal volume are precisely the ellipsoids. What makes this inequality particularly interesting is the fact it strengthens and directly implies the classical isoperimetric inequality. This insight was used to establish the Zhang-Sobolev inequality, an affine inequality far stronger than the classical sharp Sobolev inequality. Moreover, even decades after its discovery, Petty's projection inequality is still the focus of intense research. For example, it was recently shown to hold for sets of finite perimeter. Additionally, it was extended to an Orlicz setting as well as to rigid motion compatible Minkowski valuations. In this paper, the author establishes complex extensions of the Petty projection inequality and the Busemann-Petty centroid inequality.
