Spectral gap for some invariant log-concave probability measures
Abstract
We show that the conjecture of Kannan, Lovász, and Simonovits on isoperimetric properties of convex bodies and log-concave measures, is true for log-concave measures of the form $\rho(|x|_B)dx$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\rho(t,|x|_B) dx$ on $\mathbb{R}^{1+n}$, where $|x|_B$ is the norm associated to any convex body $B$ already satisfying the conjecture. In particular, the conjecture holds for convex bodies of revolution.
