Strong Isotropic Constant Conjecture


The strong isotropic constant conjecture asserts that the isotropic constant L_K of a convex body K subset R^n is at most the simplex value,

 L_K<=((n!)^(1/n))/((n+1)^((n+1)/(2n))sqrt(n+2)).

It strengthens the question of a dimension-independent upper bound by specifying the sharp value in every dimension.
