We give a B\'ezout type inequality for mixed volumes, which holds true for any convex bodies. The key ingredient is the reverse Khovanskii-Teissier inequality for convex bodies, which was obtained in our previous work and inspired by its…

In 1969, Vic Klee asked whether a convex body is uniquely determined (up to translation and reflection in the origin) by its inner section function, the function giving for each direction the maximal area of sections of the body by…

We show that for any $C^1$ partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism, there is a full volume subset, such that any Cesaro limit of any point in this subset satisfies the Pesin formula for partial entropy. This result has several important…

We define new natural variants of the notions of weighted covering and separation numbers and discuss them in detail. We prove a strong duality relation between weighted covering and separation numbers and prove a few relations between the…

The intrinsic volumes are measures of the content of a convex body. This paper uses probabilistic and information-theoretic methods to study the sequence of intrinsic volumes of a convex body. The main result states that the intrinsic…

In 1960, Gr\"{u}nbaum proved that for any convex body $C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ and every halfspace $H$ containing the centroid of $C$, one has that the volume of $H\cap C$ is at least a $\frac{1}{e}$-fraction of the volume of $C$. Recently,…

The Hessian of the renormalized volume of geometrically finite hyperbolic $3$-manifolds without rank-$1$ cusps, computed at the hyperbolic metric $g$ with totally geodesic boundary of the convex core, is shown to be a strictly positive…

In this paper we solve several reverse isoperimetric problems in the class of $\lambda$-convex bodies, i.e., convex bodies whose curvature at each point of their boundary is bounded below by some $\lambda > 0$. We give an affirmative answer…

We establish the Bonnet-Myers theorem and the Bishop-Gromov volume comparison theorem in the spectral sense for manifolds with weakly convex boundary. For $n\geq 3$, let $(M^n,g)$ be a simply connected compact smooth $n$-manifold with…

The present note is a result of an on-going investigation into the logarithmic Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We obtain lower estimates on the volume product for convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ not necessarily symmetric with respect to the…

We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

It is well known that any measure in S^2 satisfying certain simple conditions is the surface measure of a bounded convex body in R^3. It is also known that a local perturbation of the surface measure may lead to a nonlocal perturbation of…
