Abstract: The authors prove a quantitative stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality on sets of equal volume: If $|A|=|B|>0$ and $|A+B|^{\frac{1}{n}}=(2+\delta)|A|^{\frac{1}{n}}$ for some small $\delta$, then, up to a translation, both $A$ and $B$ are close (in terms of $\delta$) to a convex set $\K$. Although this result was already proved by the authors in a previous paper, the present paper provides a more elementary proof that the authors believe has its own interest. Also, the result here provides a stronger estimate for the stability exponent than the previous result of the authors.
