摘要

The Brunn-Minkowski inequality states that for (open) sets $A$ and $B$ in $R^d$, we have $|A+B|^{1/d} \geq |A|^{1/d}+|B|^{1/d}$. Equality holds if and only if $A$ and $B$ are convex and homothetic sets in $R^d$. 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 equality in the Brunn-Minkowski inequality, then $A$ and $B$ are close to being homothetic and convex, establishing the exact dependency between the three notions of closeness. This is based on joint work with Alessio Figalli and Peter van Hintum.
