The complex Busemann-Petty problem on sections of convex bodies

The complex Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin symmetric convex bodies in \(\C^n\) with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. We prove that the answer is affirmative if \(n\le 3\) and negative if \(n\ge 4.\)
