    The Busemann-Petty problem in hyperbolic and spherical spaces

    Get PDF
    The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in Rn\mathbb{R}^n with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller nn-dimensional volume. It is known that the answer to this problem is affirmative if n≤4n\le 4 and negative if n≥5n\ge 5. We study this problem in hyperbolic and spherical spaces.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figure

    International audienceWe extend Kahane-Khinchin type inequalities to the case p > -2. As an application we verify the slicing problem for the unit balls of finite-dimensional spaces that embed in L-p, p, > -2
