Abstract

Let C be a symmetric convex body of volume 1 in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We provide general estimates for the volume and the radius of CU(C) where U is a random orthogonal transformation of ${\mathbb R}^n$. In particular, we consider the case where C is in the isotropic position or C is the volume normalized Lq-centroid body Zq(μ) of an isotropic log-concave measure μ on ${\mathbb R}^n$.
