The Kannan-Lovász-Simonovits conjecture

Claims the conjecture in full, for all isotropic log-concave measures: CP(μ)≤CC_P(\mu) \le C with CC universal. The route bounds the third cumulant, propagates the estimate to cumulants of every order by Eldan's stochastic localization, realizes derivatives of tilt averages as mixed cumulants through a suspension construction, and closes with the Song-Zhang criterion. The previous best bounds were Klartag's Clog⁡nC\sqrt{\log n} and Song and Zhang's C⋅16log⁡∗nC \cdot 16^{\log^* n} (1 October 2026). Priority: Song and Zhang revised their preprint on 4 October 2026, the day this paper was posted, to claim the same O(1)O(1) bound by their own route; the two are parallel claims of the same result. Consequences include the thin-shell and variance conjectures, already known to follow from KLS.
