报告摘要:We settle the three-dimensional Mahler conjecture for arbitrary convex bodies. Prior to this work, the Mahler conjecture for arbitrary convex bodies had remained open in all dimensions \(n\geq 3\) since Mahler's original work in 1938. More precisely, for every convex body \(K\subset \mathbb R^3\), we prove the sharp inequality\[|K|\, |K^{s(K)}|\geq \frac{64}{9},\]where  \(K^{s(K)}\) denotes the polar of \(K\) with respect to Santal\'o point \(s(K)\). The lower bound is attained by simplices; among polytopes, these are the only equality cases. The key ingredient in our proof is an admissible shadow-system framework, which produces face-lattice-preserving, volume-affine deformations and reduces the problem to a dimension count for the space of admissible speeds. As an application, this framework also yields a purely geometric new proof of the three-dimensional centrally symmetric Mahler inequality, first proved by Iriyeh and Shibata. This is joint work with Shibing Chen (USTC),Dongmeng Xi(SHU) and Zhe-Feng Xu(SISSA&USTC).
