Abstract of a paper by Jakub Onufry Wojtaszczyk
This is an announcement for the paper "No return to convexity" by Jakub Onufry Wojtaszczyk. Abstract: In the paper we study closures of classes of log--concave measures under taking weak limits, linear transformations and tensor products. We consider what uniform measures on convex bodies can one obtain starting from some class $\mathcal{K}$. In particular we prove that if one starts from one--dimensional log--concave measures, one obtains no non--trivial uniform mesures on convex bodies. The operations we consider are easily proved to preserve a number of important properties, including a uniform bound on the isotropic constant and $IC$ inequalities.
