Abstract: We establish new functional versions of the Blaschke-Santal'o inequality on the volume product of a convex body which generalize to the non-symmetric setting an inequality of K. Ball and we give a simple proof of the case of equality. As a corollary, we get some inequalities for $log$-concave functions and Legendre transforms which extend the recent result of Artstein, Klartag and Milman, with its equality case.

Review text

The authors prove the functional version of the inverse Santaló inequality for unconditional convex bodies. In particular they prove that if \(\Phi\) is a convex function defined on the \(n\)-dimensional euclidean space which is invariant by changes of signs then \(\int e^{-\Phi} \int e^{-\mathcal L \Phi} \geq 4^n\) where \(\mathcal L \Phi\) is the Legendre transform of \(\Phi\). This inequality is sharp. The proof is based on several inequalities that the authors obtain about the integrals of increasing functions; later they apply these inequalities to the integrals of Legendre transforms; they also use a functional extension of Lozanovskii's lemma. Besides they provide a general functional version of the Bourgain-Milman inequality which extends a result of \textit{B. Klartag} and \textit{V. Milman} [Geom. Dedicata 112, 169--182 (2005; Zbl 1099.28002)].
