Let B be a finite collection of geometric (not necessarily convex) bodies in the plane. Clearly, this class of geometric objects naturally generalizes the class of disks, lines, ellipsoids, and even convex polygons. We consider geometric…

Linear topological spaces with partial ordering (linear kinematics) are studied. They are defined by a set of 8 axioms implying that topology, linear structure and ordering are compatible with each other. Most of the results are valid for…

An effort has been made to show mathematicians some new ideas applied to image analysis. Gray images are presented as tilings. Based on topological properties of the tiling, a number of gray convex hulls: maximal, minimal, and oriented ones…

We define a class of $L$-convex-concave subsets of $\mathbb{R}P^3$, where $L$ is a projective line in $\mathbb{R}P^3$. These are sets whose sections by any plane containing $L$ are convex and concavely depend on this plane. We prove a…

We are concerned with the well-posedness of linear elliptic systems posed on $\mathbb{R}^d$. The concrete problem of interest, for which we require this theory, arises from the linearization of the equations of anisotropic finite…

We study intersections of projective convex sets in the sense of Steinitz. In a projective space, an intersection of a nonempty family of convex sets splits into multiple connected components each of which is a convex set. Hence, such an…

Let $L$ be a big holomorphic line bundle on a complex projective manifold $X.$ We show how to associate a convex function on the Okounkov body of $L$ to any continuous metric $\psi$ on $L.$ We will call this the Chebyshev transform of…

For a permutationally invariant unconditional convex body K in R^n we define a finite sequence (K_j), j = 1, ..., n of projections of the body K to the space spanned by first j vectors of the standard basis of R^n. We prove that the…

Makeev conjectured that every constant-width body is inscribed in the dual difference body of a regular simplex. We prove that homologically, there are an odd number of such circumscribing bodies in dimension 3, and therefore geometrically…

We show that the Okounkov body of a big divisor with finitely generated section ring is a rational simplex, for an appropriate choice of flag; furthermore, when the ambient variety is a surface, the same holds for every big divisor. Under…

Linear Geometry studies geometric properties which can be expressed via the notion of a line. All information about lines is encoded in a ternary relation called a line relation. A set endowed with a line relation is called a liner. So,…

In this paper, we deal with analytic and geometric properties of orthogonally convex sets. We establish a Blaschke-type theorem for path-connected and orthogonally convex sets in the plane using orthogonally convex paths. The separation of…

We investigate metric projections and distance functions referring to convex bodies in finite-dimensional normed spaces. For this purpose we identify the vector space with its dual space by using, instead of the usual identification via the…

We study the additivity of Newton-Okounkov bodies. Our main result states that on two-dimensional subcones of the ample cone the Newto-Okounkov body associated to an appropriate flag acts additively. We prove this by induction relying on…

We develop the fundamentals of a new theory of convex geometry -- which we call "broken line convex geometry". This is a theory of convexity where the ambient space is the rational tropicalization of a cluster variety, as opposed to an…
