Extremizers and stability of the Betke--Weil inequality

Let $K$ be a compact convex domain in the Euclidean plane. The mixed area $A(K,-K)$ of $K$ and $-K$ can be bounded from above by $1/(6sqrt{3})L(K)^2$, where $L(K)$ is the perimeter of $K$. This was proved by Ulrich Betke and Wolfgang Weil (1991). They also showed that if $K$ is a polygon, then equality holds if and only if $K$ is a regular triangle. We prove that among all convex domains, equality holds only in this case, as conjectured by Betke and Weil. This is achieved by establishing a stronger stability result for the geometric inequality $6sqrt{3}A(K,-K)le L(K)^2$.
