Abstract
Let K be a convex body in Rn whose centroid is at the origin, let E∈G(n,k) be a subspace, and let ξ∈Sn−1. We find the best constant c=(kn+1)k so that |(K|E)∩ξ+|k≥c|K|E|k, and completely determine the minimizer. Here, |⋅|k is k-dimensional volume, K|E is the projection of K onto E, and ξ+={x∈Rn:〈x,ξ〉≥0}. Our result generalizes both Grünbaum's inequality, and an old inequality of Minkowski and Radon.
