We establish Brunn–Minkowski type inequalities for the affine surface area quotient function, which in special cases yield some well-known results. Key words: Volume difference function, affine surface area quotient function, Blaschke sum, Brunn–Minkowski inequality 1. Introduction and statement of results The well-known classical Brunn–Minkowski inequality can be stated as follows: If K and L are convex bodies in Rn , then (see, ., [16]) V (K + L)1/n ≥ V (K)1/n + V (L)1/n , () with equality if and only if K and L are homothetic. Here, + is the usual Minkowski sum. Let K and L be star bodies in Rn , then the dual Brunn–Minkowski inequality states that (see [8]) ˜ 1/n ≤ V (K)1/n + V (L)1/n , V (K +L) () ˜ is the radial Minkowski sum. with equality if and only if K and L are dilates. Here, + A vector addition was defined on Rn which we call radial Minkowski addition, as follows. If x, y ∈ Rn , ˜ is defined to be the usual vector sum of x, y provided x, y both lie in a 1 -dimensional subspace of then x+y n R and as the zero vector otherwise. If K, L are star bodies and λ, µ ∈ R, then the radial Minkowski linear ˜ ˜ ˜ ˜ is called the combination, λK +µL , is defined by λK +µL = {λx+µy : x ∈ K, y ∈ L}. The expression K +L radial Minkowski sum of the star bodies K and L (see [5]). In 2004, Leng [6] defined the volume difference function of compact domains D and K , where D ⊆ K , by DV (K, D) = V (K) − V (D). The following Brunn–Minkowski .
