Geometry of the L_q-centroid bodies of an isotropic log-concave measure

Abstract: We study some geometric properties of the

L_{q}

-centroid bodies

Z_{q} (m u)

of an isotropic log-concave measure

m u

on

{m a t h b b R}^{n}

. For any

2 l s q l s s q r t n

and for

v a r e p s i l o n i n (v a r e p s i l o n_{0} (q, n), 1)

we determine the inradius of a random

(1 - v a r e p s i l o n) n

-dimensional projection of

Z_{q} (m u)

up to a constant depending polynomially on

v a r e p s i l o n

. Using this fact we obtain estimates for the covering numbers

N (s q r t s m a s h [b] q B_{2}^{n}, t Z_{q} (m u))

,

t g r 1

, thus showing that

Z_{q} (m u)

is a

-regular convex body. As a consequence, we also get an upper bound for

M (Z_{q} (m u))

.
