Popis: | Magnitude is a numerical invariant of compact metric spaces, originally inspired by category theory and now known to be related to myriad other geometric quantities. Generalizing earlier results in $\ell_1^n$ and Euclidean space, we prove an upper bound for the magnitude of a convex body in a hypermetric normed space in terms of its Holmes-Thompson intrinsic volumes. As applications of this bound, we give short new proofs of Mahler's conjecture in the case of a zonoid, and Sudakov's minoration inequality. Comment: v3: minor expositional clarifications.
