Abstract
For n ≥ 1, let ξ1, ..., ξn be independent, identically distributed standard normal variables. Among nonnegative real vectors u = (u1, . . . , un) of Euclidean norm 1, the quantity E∥(u1ξ1,..., unξn∥∞ is maximised when u has at most two non-zero entries, and it is minimised when u is proportional to (1,...,1). Further generalisations of this result are also discussed. As a corollary, a lower bound on the mean width of a general convex body K is derived in terms of the successive inner radii of K.
Keywords : Orthogonal crosspolytopes; Gaussian vectors
