Equivalence of the local and global versions of the $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality

Abstract

By studying $L^p$-combinations of strongly isomorphic polytopes, we prove the equivalence of the $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality conjectured by Böröczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang to the local version of the inequality studied by Colesanti, Livshyts, and Marsiglietti and by Kolesnikov and Milman, settling a conjecture of the latter authors. In addition, we prove the local inequality in dimension $2$, yielding a new proof of the $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality in the plane.
