Abstract
Herman Chernoff used Hermite polynomials to prove an inequality for the normal distribution. This inequality is useful in solving a variation of the classical isoperimetric problem which, in turn, is relevant to data compression in the theory of element identification. As the inequality is of interest in itself, we prove a multivariate generalization of it using a different argument.
