Let $K\subset\R^n$ be a convex body in isotropic position. We prove the optimal mean-width estimate \[ M^*(K)\leq C\sqrt{n\log n}. \] The main new ingredient is a geometric inequality relating the Gaussian mean of the support function to its mean under the uniform measure on $K$, obtained through a heat-flow argument. Combined with the Gaussian-log-concave comparison of Eldan and Lehec and the newly available dimension-free bound on the third-moment parameter $\kappa_n$, this yields the result. The boundedness of $\kappa_n$ also makes the mean-norm estimate of Bizeul and Klartag sharp. Combining both estimates yields \[ M(K)M^*(K)\leq C\log n, \] extending Pisier's $MM^*$ estimate to non-symmetric convex bodies and to the isotropic position.
For a convex body $K$ its parallel section function in the direction $\theta\in S^{n-1}$ is defined by $$A_{K,\theta}(t) = \mathrm{vol}_{n-1} \left( K \cap \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^n ~ | ~ \langle x, \theta \rangle = t \} \right) .$$ We study to what extent the body $K$ is determined by partial information about these funct...

Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be a convex body containing the origin in its interior. In this work, we study the diameters of random sections of $K$ and derive upper and lower bounds for them in terms of geometric parameters of $K$. Our bounds hold with large probability, and they offer new insights into this widely stu...

We establish a new concavity inequality for the elementary symmetric function \(\sigma_k\), which controls the spectral quadratic form arising from the second variation of \(\log\lambda_{\max}\). The proof is based on an easy--hard decomposition of the spectral variables. The easy region is treated using an optimal con...
We analyse the boundary behaviour of the gradient of the torsion function $w_\Om$ in convex domains $\Om\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove that its $L^\infty$-norm is attained at a boundary point and establish the stability of this norm under general (convex) perturbations. For problems of the form $$\sup\{\|\nabla w_{\Om}...

In this paper, let $u\in C^4(B_{10})$ with $D^2u\geq -KI$ define a $2$-admissible graph $M=\{(x,u(x)):x\in B_{10}\}\subset\R^{n+1}$ satisfying \[ \sigma_2(\kappa[u])=f(x). \] We prove an interior curvature estimate depending on the Lipschitz norm of the right-hand sides. The proof combines a shifted Jacobi inequality f...
We study when an invariant directional average from integral geometry can be replaced exactly by finitely many directions. For an even continuous kernel $\psi:[-1,1]\to\R$, let $T_\psi$ be the associated zonal convolution operator on the sphere and let $\cB_\psi K$ be the corresponding surface-area observable of a conv...
