Petty proved that a convex body in R^n has the minimal surface area amongst its SL(n)images, if, and only if, its surface area measure is isotropic. By introducing a new notion of minimal Orlicz surface area, we generalize this result to the Orlicz setting. The analog of Ball’s reverse isoperimetric inequality is established.

The Orlicz–Legendre ellipsoids, which are in the framework of emerging dual Orlicz Brunn–Minkowski theory, are introduced for the first time. They are in some sense dual to the recently found Orlicz–John ellipsoids, and have largely generalized the classical Legendre ellipsoid of inertia. Several new affine isoperimetric inequalities are established. The connection between the characterization of Orlicz– Legendre ellipsoids and isotropy of measures is demonstrated.
