Employing a style suitable for professionals with little background in analysis, geometry or probability, the work goes directly to the connection between isoperimetric-type inequalities and functional inequalities, allowing readers to quickly access the core of these conjectures. In addition, four recent and important results concerning this theory are presented. The first two are theorems attributed to Eldan-Klartag and Ball-Nguyen, which relate the variance and the KLS conjectures, respectively, to the hyperplane conjecture. The remaining two present in detail the main ideas needed to prove the best known estimate for the thin-shell width given by Guédon-Milman, and an approach to Eldan’s work on the connection between the thin-shell width and the KLS conjecture.Lecture Notes in Mathematics,0075-8434 ;2131Functional analysisConvex geometry Discrete geometryProbabilitiesFunctional Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12066Convex and Discrete Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21014Probability Theory and Stochastic Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M27004Functional analysis.Convex geometry .Discrete geometry.Probabilities.Functional Analysis.Convex and Discrete Geometry.Probability Theory and Stochastic Processes.515.7Alonso-Gutiérrez Davidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut716387Bastero Jesúsauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996198828703316Approaching the Kannan-Lovász-Simonovits and Variance Conjectures2105502UNISA
