Résumé (EN)

In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing Lp-Brunn Minkowskitheory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstoneof this theory is the Lp-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we introducea functional form of this concept, for log concave and s-concave functions. Weshow that the new functional form is a generalization of the original Lp-affinesurface area. We prove duality relations and affine isoperimetric inequalities for logconcave and s-concave functions. This leads to a new inverse log-Sobolevinequality for s-concave densities
