Abstract

The Brunn-Minkowski inequality states that for (open) sets A and B in Rd, we have4 + B|1/d > |A|l/d + |B|l/d. Equality holds if and only if A and B are convex and homotheticsets in R". In this talk, we present a sharp stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality.concluding a long line of research on this problem, We show that if we are close to eauality in theBrunn-Minkowski ineguality, then A and B are close to being homothetic and convex, establishingthe exact dependency between the three notions of closeness.This is based on joint work withAlessio Figalli and Peter van Hintum.
