Let g be a smooth function on R n with values in [0, 1]. Using the isoperimetric property of the Gaussian measure, it is proved that ,(8 &1 (Eg))&E,(8 &1 ( g)) E |{g|. Conversely, this inequality implies the isoperimetric property of the Gaussian measure.

We deal with the isoperimetric and the shift problem for subsets of measure 1Â2 in product probability spaces. We prove that the canonical central half-spaces are extremal in particular cases: products of log-concave measures on the real line satisfying precise conditions and products of uniform mea
