    In this paper the author proves a sectional Rogers-Shephard type inequality for measures with radially decreasing densities: if \(\mu\) is a measure on \(\mathbb{R}^n\) given by \(\mu(x)=\phi(x)\,dx\), with \(\phi:\mathbb{R}^n\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}_+\) radially decreasing, and \(H\) is an \(m\)-dimensional linear plane, then \[ \mu\bigl((K-K)\cap H\bigr)\leq\binom{n+m}{m}\min\left\{\sup_{y\in\mathbb{R}^n}\mu\bigl((y-K)\cap H\bigr),\sup_{y\in\mathbb{R}^n}\mu\bigl((K+y)\cap H\bigr)\right\}. \] Indeed, he shows a more general result for the \(p\)-difference body \(D_p(K)\) of a convex body \(K\). The author also proves, as consequences of the main theorem, several Rogers-Shephard type marginal inequalities for \((1/s)\)-concave functions, \(s\geq 0\), and logarithmically concave functions.
