This is an announcement for the paper "A remark on the Mahler conjecture: local minimality of the unit cube" by Fedor Nazarov, Fedor Petrov, Dmitry Ryabogin, and Artem Zvavitch.
Abstract: We prove that the unit cube $B^n_{\infty}$ is a strict local minimizer for the Mahler volume product $vol_n(K)vol_n(K^*)$ in the class of origin symmetric convex bodies endowed with the Banach-Mazur distance.
