摘要
We provide a characterization of those log-concave distributions in R-n that are con-toured distributions, through the K-p-bodies of the distribution, defined by Ball. Our method uses the logarithmic integral for the solution of a Bernstein type approximation problem. In the second part of the paper we state a question for contoured distributions that would provide an alternative approach to the isotropic constant problem.
