The geometry conjecture, which was posed nearly a quarter of a century ago, states that the fixed point set of the composition of projectors onto nonempty closed convex sets in Hilbert space is actually equal to the intersection of certain…

We discuss the bi-Lipschitz geometry of an isolated singular point of a complex surface which particular emphasis on when it is metrically conical.

We consider various Hilbert spaces of Dirichlet series whose norms are given by weighted $\ell^2$ norms of the Dirichlet coefficients. We characterize the multiplier algebras for some of these spaces.

We provide formulas for projectors onto a polyhedral set, i.e. the intersection of a finite number of halfspaces. To this aim we formulate the problem of finding the projection as a convex optimization problem and we solve explicitly…

We introduce the arithmetic width of a convex body, defined as the number of distinct values a linear functional attains on the lattice points within the body. Arithmetic width refines lattice width by detecting gaps in the lattice point…

We prove that a 3-dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by the metric induced on its boundary. Furthemore, any hyperbolic metric on the torus with cone singularities of positive curvature can be…

We develop a notion of rank one properly convex domains (or Hilbert geometries) in the real projective space. This is in the spirit of rank one non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds and CAT(0) spaces. We define rank one isometries for…

The usual theory of negative type (and $p$-negative type) is heavily dependent on an embedding result of Schoenberg, which states that a metric space isometrically embeds in some Hilbert space if and only if it has 2-negative type. A…

While there is extensive literature on approximation of convex bodies by inscribed or circumscribed polytopes, much less is known in the case of generally positioned polytopes. Here we give upper and lower bounds for approximation of convex…

Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…

We characterize convex isoperimetric sets in the Heisenberg group endowed with horizontal perimeter. We first prove Sobolev regularity for a certain class of vector fields in the plane with bounded variation, related to the curvature…

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 discuss the problem of deciding when a metrisable topological group $G$ has a canonically defined local Lipschitz geometry. This naturally leads to the concept of minimal metrics on $G$, that we characterise intrinsically in terms of a…

We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite…

In this paper, we consider different types of non-positive curvature properties of the Hilbert metric of a convex domain in R^n. First, we survey the relationships among the concepts and prove that in the case of Hilbert metric some of them…

Let L be an ample holomorphic line bundle over a compact complex Hermitian manifold X. Any fixed smooth Hermitian metric on L induces a Hilbert space structure on the space of global holomorphic sections with values in the k:th tensor power…

Generalizing results by Valette, Zamfirescu and Laczkovich, we will prove that a convex body $K$ is a polytope if there are sufficiently many tilings which contain a tile similar to $K$. Furthermore, we give an example that this can not be…

We characterize the sets of norm one vectors $\mathbf{x}_1,\ldots,\mathbf{x}_k$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ such that there exists a $k$-linear symmetric form attaining its norm at $(\textbf{x}_1,\ldots,\mathbf{x}_k)$. We prove that in…

We use symplectic techniques to obtain partial results on Mahler's conjecture about the product of the volume of a convex body and the volume of its polar. We confirm the conjecture for hyperplane sections or projections of $\ell_p$-balls…

We consider matrix problems in Hilbert spaces (orthoscalar representations of quivers and posets). A criterion of tameness of the problem of classification of indecomposable orthoscalar representations of a quiver is given.
