The Bézout inequality for mixed volumes characterizes simplices
Dylan Langharst, Shouda Wang
Abstract
We prove that the Bézout inequality for mixed volumes characterizes simplices among full dimensional convex bodies in every dimension, resolving a conjecture of Soprunov and Zvavitch. We give two separate proofs of the conjecture. Along the way, we also prove characterizations of simplices in terms of longest chords or relative inradii.
