In this talk we explore a class of λ-convex bodies, i.e., convex bodies with curvature at each point of their boundary bounded below by some λ>0. For such bodies, we solve two reverse isoperimetric problems.
In R3, we show that the intersection of two balls of radius 1/λ (a λ-convex lens) is the unique volume minimizer among all λ-convex bodies of given surface area. We also show a reverse inradius inequality in arbitrary dimension which says that the λ-convex lens has the smallest inscribed ball among all λ-convex bodies of given surface area.
This is a joint work with Kostiantyn Drach.
