Popis: The Busemann–Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in ℝn with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is affirmative if n ≤ 4 and negative if n ≥ 5. We study this problem in the complex hyperbolic n-space ℍnℂ and prove that the answer is affirmative for n ≤ 2 and negative for n ≥ 3.
