Congruent polygons are congruent in angles as well as in edge lengths. We concentrate on the angle aspect, and investigate how tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons can be determined by the angle information only. We also investigate…
In this paper we extend our previous work on singularities of Monge-Amp\`ere foliations to the case of pseudoconvex finite type domains. We are able to answer the questin of Burns on homogeneous polynomials whose logarithm satisfies the…
We define floating bodies in the class of $n$-dimensional ball-convex bodies. A right derivative of volume of these floating bodies leads to a surface area measure for ball-convex bodies which we call relative affine surface area. We show…
A method is presented for computing all the affine equivalences between two rational ruled surfaces defined by rational parametrizations that works directly in parametric rational form, i.e. without computing or making use of the implicit…
In this paper we study some affine structures on nilpotent Lie algebras endowed with a contact form. These affine structures are constructed from an affine structure on a symplectic Lie algebra by a central extension.
We introduce a new family of affine metrics on a locally strictly convex surface $M$ in affine 4-space. Then, we define the symmetric and antisymmetric equiaffine planes associated with each metric. We show that if $M$ is immersed in a…
We find the complete rational homology for the finite subset spaces of a $d$-dimensional sphere. We also determine the integral homology in top $d$ degrees and obtain a partial description of it in codimension $d$.
We prove new Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities and new affine isoperimetric inequalities for mixed $p$-affine surface areas. We introduce a new class of bodies, the illumination surface bodies, and establish some of their properties. We…
This note deals with certain properties of convex functions. We provide results on the convexity of the set of minima of these functions, the behaviour of their subgradient set under restriction, and optimization of these functions over an…
Sectors at centre of affine quadrics with point symmetry are investigated over arbitrary fields of characteristic different from two. As an application we demonstrate nice formulas for the area and the volume of such planar and spatial…
We provide a comprehensive overview of metric-affine geometries with spherical symmetry, which may be used in order to solve the field equations for generic gravity theories which employ these geometries as their field variables. We discuss…
In this paper, we establish several geometric properties of boundary sections of convex solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere equations: the engulfing and separating properties and volume estimates. As applications, we prove a covering lemma of…
A branched affine structure on a compact topological surface with marked points is a complex affine structure outside the marked points. We give a proof of an unpublished foundational theorem of Veech, stating that any branched affine…
Convex geometry and complex geometry have long had fascinating interactions. This survey offers a tour of a few.
This paper is a survey of recent advances as well as open problems in the study of face numbers of centrally symmetric simplicial polytopes and spheres. The topics discussed range from neighborliness of centrally symmetric polytopes and the…
We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…
On a basis of theory of Riemann extension of the space of constant affine connection associated with the R\"ossler system of equations relations between its parameters are investigated.
We study a fully nonlinear equation of complex Monge-Ampere type on Hermitian manifolds. We establish the a priori estimates for solutions of the equation up to the second order derivatives with the help of a subsolution.
We study edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by edge congruent pentagons, under the assumption that there are tiles with all vertices having degree 3. We develop the technique of neighborhood tilings and apply the technique to completely…
Deformation theory of complex manifolds is a classical subject with recent new advances in the noncompact case using both algebraic and analytic methods. In this note, we recall some concepts of the existing theory and introduce new notions…
