Abstract: The $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory for $pgeq1$, proposed by Firey and developed by Lutwak in the 90's, replaces the Minkowski addition of convex sets by its $L^p$ counterpart, in which the support functions are added in $L^p$-norm. Recently, B"{o}r"{o}czky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang have proposed to extend this theory further to encompass the range $pin[0,1)$. In particular, they conjectured an $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for origin-symmetric convex bodies in that range, which constitutes a strengthening of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality. Our main result confirms this conjecture locally for all (smooth) origin-symmetric convex bodies in $mathbb{R}^n$ and $pin[1-fracc{n}^{3/2},1)$. In addition, we confirm the local log-Brunn--Minkowski conjecture (the case $p=0$) for small-enough $C^2$-perturbations of the unit-ball of $el{l}_q^n$ for $qgeq2$, when the dimension $n$ is sufficiently large, as well as for the cube, which we show is the conjectural extremal case. For unit-balls of $el{l}_q^n$ with $qin[1,2)$, we confirm an analogous result for $p=cin(0,1)$, a universal constant. It turns out that the local version of these conjectures is equivalent to a minimization problem for a spectral-gap parameter associated with a certain differential operator, introduced by Hilbert (under different normalization) in his proof of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality. As applications, we obtain local uniqueness results in the even $L^p$-Minkowski problem, as well as improved stability estimates in the Brunn-Minkowski and anisotropic isoperimetric inequalities.
