Hyperbolic Alexandrov-Fenchel quermassintegral inequalities I

Abstract

In this paper we prove the following geometric inequality in the hyperbolic space $\H^n$ ($n\ge 5)$, which is a hyperbolic Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality, \[\begin{array}{rcl} \ds \int_Σ\s_4 d μ\ge \ds\vs C_{n-1}^4ω_{n-1}\left\{\left(\frac{|Σ|}{ω_{n-1}} \right)^\frac 12 + \left(\frac{|Σ|}{ω_{n-1}} \right)^{\frac 12\frac {n-5}{n-1}} \right\}^2, \end{array}\] provided that $Σ$ is a horospherical convex hypersurface. Equality holds if and only if $Σ$ is a geodesic sphere in $\H^n$.
