Translation of the French introduction: In Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 79, No. 4, 619-625 (1980; Zbl 0439.52008), \textit{D. Hensley} showed the relation between the central hyperplane sections of a symmetric convex body \(K\) and called this its covariance. Then \textit{K. M. Ball} [Stud. Math. 88, No. 1, 69-84 (1988; Zbl 0642.52011)] improved and enlarged this result. From this he followed inequalities of Khinchine type, strengthening the hyperplane conjecture, and established from it equivalent forms. In Lect. Notes Math. 1376, 64-104 (1989; Zbl 0679.46012) \textit{V. D. Milman} and \textit{A. Pajor} made a systematic study of these problems using the inertia ellipsoid of \(K\). We generalize some of these results to not necessarily symmetric convex bodies. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0981.00013].
