    The Lorentz-Sobolev inequality has a long history. The geometric analogue of the \(L^1\)-Sobolev inequality is the Euclidean isoperimetric inequality. New sharp Lorentz-Sobolev inequalities are obtained by convexifying level sets in Lorentz integrals via the \(L^p\)-Minkowski problem. New \(L^p\)-isocapacitary and isoperimetric inequalities are proved for Lipschitz star bodies. It is shown that the sharp convex Lorentz-Sobolev inequalities are analytic analogues of isocapacitary and isoperimetric inequalities. Finally, the authors pose an open question as follows: Are the geometric inequality \[ \Phi_p(K)\leq \left(\frac{p-1}{n-p}\right)^{p-1} C_p(K) \] for all \( K\in K_0^n\) and the analytic inequality \[ \int^\infty_0 \big(\langle f\rangle_t\big)\,dt\leq \left(\frac{p-1}{n-p}\right)^{p-1} \int^\infty_0 C_p\big(\langle f\rangle_t\big)\,dt \] for all \( f\in C^{\infty}_{0}(\mathbb R^{n})\) true for \(1<p<n\)? The paper is useful to budding researchers in this field.
