Abstract:
The concept of an intersection body is central for the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory and has also played an important role in the solution of the Busemann-Petty problem. A more general concept of -intersection bodies is related to the generalization of the Busemann-Petty problem. In this note, we compare classes of -intersection bodies for different and examine the conjecture that these classes increase with . In particular, we construct a -intersection body that is not a -intersection body.
