Busemann and C. M. Petty posed the following problem in 1956: If K and L are origin-symmetric convex bodies in R^n and for each hyperplane H through the origin the volumes of their central slices satisfy vol(K cap H) < vol(L cap H), does it follow that the volumes of the bodies themselves satisfy vol(K) < vol(L)?\n  The problem is trivially positive in R^2. However, a surprising negative answer for n <= 12 was given by Larman and Rogers in 1975. Subsequently, a series of contributions were made to reduce the dimensions to n >= 5 by a number of authors. That is, the problem has a negative ans"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"math/9903205","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
