摘要：

The Brunn-Minkowski inequality asserts a concavity feature of the volume functional under convex addition of sets. Among its applications has been Anderson's treatment of multivariate densities. Here we present a generalization which interprets the inequality in terms of random sets. This provides a natural proof of Mudholkar's generalized Anderson-type inequality. © 1990.
