Abstract：The Kannan-Lovász-Simonovits conjecture asserts that high dimensional logconcave probability measures satisfy a certain universal concentration property.In a recent joint work with Bo’az Klartag we prove that this conjecture holds true up to a factor that is polylogarithmic in the dimension. In this talk I’ll mostly speak about the context around this conjecture, in particular I’ll present some of its numerous consequences. If time abides I’ll say a few words about our proof towards the end of the talk.
