The relative isoperimetric inequality inside an open, convex cone C states that under a volume constraint, the ball intersected the cone minimizes the perimeter inside C. In this talk, we will show how one can use optimal transport theory to obtain this inequality, and we will prove a corresponding sharp stability result. This is joint work with Alessio Figalli.
