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 650 0$aFunctional analysis 650 0$aGeometric analysis 700 1 $aBastero, Jesús$eauthor$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0536463 907 $a.b14259746$b22-11-16$c26-07-16 912 $a991002954139707536 945 $aLE013 46-XX ALO11 (2015)$g1$i2013000293738$lle013$op$pE36.39$q-$rl$s- $t0$u1$v0$w1$x0$y.i15788842$z22-11-16 996 $aApproaching the Kannan-Lovász-Simonovits and variance conjectures$91411158 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale013$b26-07-16$cm$da $e-$feng$gsz $h0$i0
