It is a classical fact, that given an arbitrary n-dimensional convex body, there exists an appropriate sequence of Minkowski symmetrizations (or Steiner symmetrizations), that converges in Hausdorff metric to a Euclidean ball. Here we…

In this paper we will prove that for any planar measurable set of finite measure $M$, its successive Steiner symmetrizations with respect to the Kakutani-Fibonacci sequence of directions converge to the ball $M^*$ centered at the origin and…

In this paper, the asymptotic behavior of sequences of successive Steiner and Minkowski symmetrizations is investigated. We state an equivalence result between the convergences of those sequences for Minkowski and Steiner. Moreover, in the…

This paper proves that for every convex body in R^n there exist 5n-4 Minkowski symmetrizations, which transform the body into an approximate Euclidean ball. This result complements the sharp c n log n upper estimate by J. Bourgain, J.…

We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…

We study symmetrization procedures within the class $\mathcal S_n$ of \emph{ball-bodies}, i.e.\ intersections of unit Euclidean balls (equivalently, summands of the Euclidean unit ball, or $c$-convex sets via the $c$-duality $A\mapsto…

We prove that if a convex body has absolutely continuous surface area measure, whose density is sufficiently close to the constant, then the sequence $\{\Pi^mK\}$ of convex bodies converges to the ball with respect to the Banach-Mazur…

There are sequences of directions such that, given any compact set K in R^n, the sequence of iterated Steiner symmetrals of K in these directions converges to a ball. However examples show that Steiner symmetrization along a sequence of…

We provide sharp upper bounds for the number of symmetrizations required to transform a star shaped set in ${\mathbb R}^n$ arbitrarily close (in the Hausdorff metric) to the Euclidean ball.

We derive conditions under which random sequences of polarizations (two-point symmetrizations) converge almost surely to the symmetric decreasing rearrangement. The parameters for the polarizations are independent random variables whose…

We present a direct analytic method towards an estimate for the rate of convergence (to the Euclidean Ball) of Steiner symmetrizations. To this end we present a modified version of a known stability property of the Steiner symmetrization.

We study approximations of smooth convex bodies by random ball-polytopes. We examine the following probability model: let $K\subset{\bf R}^d$ be a convex body such that $K$ slides freely in a ball of radius $R>0$ and has $C^2$ smooth…
