  text: 'We extend the notion of the minimal volume ellipsoid containing a convex
    body in Rd to the setting of logarithmically concave functions. We consider a
    vast class of logarithmically concave functions whose superlevel sets are concentric
    ellipsoids. For a fixed function from this class, we consider the set of all its
    “affine” positions. For any log-concave function f on Rd, we consider functions
    belonging to this set of “affine” positions, and find the one with the minimal
    integral under the condition that it is pointwise greater than or equal to f.
    We study the properties of existence and uniqueness of the solution to this problem.
    For any s∈[0,+∞), we consider the construction dual to the recently defined John
    s-function (Ivanov and Naszódi in Functional John ellipsoids. arXiv preprint:
    arXiv:2006.09934, 2020). We prove that such a construction determines a unique
    function and call it the Löwner s-function of f. We study the Löwner s-functions
    as s tends to zero and to infinity. Finally, extending the notion of the outer
    volume ratio, we define the outer integral ratio of a log-concave function and
    give an asymptotically tight bound on it.'
