We introduce complex intersection bodies and show that their properties and applications are similar to those of their real counterparts. In particular, we generalize Busemann's theorem to the complex case by proving that complex…
One of the fundamental results in Convex Geometry is Busemann's theorem, which states that the intersection body of a symmetric convex body is convex. Thus, it is only natural to ask if there is a quantitative version of Busemann's theorem,…
We study isomorphic properties of two generalizations of intersection bodies, the class of k-intersection bodies and the class of generalized k-intersection bodies. We also show that the Banach-Mazur distance of the k-intersection body of a…
In this paper we study how certain symmetries of convex bodies affect their geometric properties. In particular, we consider the impact of symmetries generated by the block diagonal subgroup of orthogonal transformations, generalizing…
Busemann's intersection inequality gives an upper bound for the volume of the intersection body of a star body in terms of the volume of the body itself. Koldobsky, Paouris, and Zymonopoulou asked if there is a similar result for…
We prove new versions of the isomorphic Busemann-Petty problem for two different measures and show how these results can be used to recover slicing and distance inequalities. We also prove a sharp upper estimate for the outer volume ratio…
We prove several estimates for the moments of arbitrary measures on convex bodies. We apply these estimates to show a new slicing inequality for measures on convex bodies. We also deduce estimates for the outer volume ratio distance from an…
We characterize the surjective isometries, with respect to the Hausdorff distance, of the class of bodies given by intersections of Euclidean unit balls. We show that any such isometry is given by the composition of a rigid motion with…
In the paper "Isoperimetry of waists and local versus global asymptotic convex geometries", it was proved that the existence of nicely bounded sections of two symmetric convex bodies K and L implies that the intersection of randomly rotated…
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$. We prove that in small codimensions, the sections of a convex body through the centroid are quite symmetric with respect to volume. As a consequence of our estimates we give a positive answer to a…
Interpolating between the classic notions of intersection and polar centroid bodies, (real) $L_p$-intersection bodies, for $-1<p<1$, play an important role in the dual $L_p$-Brunn--Minkowski theory. Inspired by the recent construction of…
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…
Busemann's intersection inequality asserts that the only maximizers of the integral $\int_{S^{n-1}} |K\cap\xi^\perp|^n d\xi$ among all convex bodies of a fixed volume in $\mathbb R^n$ are centered ellipsoids. We study this question in the…
We prove Gaussian approximation theorems for specific $k$-dimensional marginals of convex bodies which possess certain symmetries. In particular, we treat bodies which possess a 1-unconditional basis, as well as simplices. Our results…
We construct symmetric convex bodies that are not intersection bodies, but all of their central hyperplane sections are intersection bodies. This result extends the studies by Weil in the case of zonoids and by Neyman in the case of…
We study a version of the Busemann-Petty problem for $\log$-concave measures with an additional assumption on the dilates of convex, symmetric bodies. One of our main tools is an analog of the classical large deviation principle applied to…
The aim of this note is to survey the results in some geometric problems related to the centroids and the static equilibrium points of convex bodies. In particular, we collect results related to Gr\"unbaum's inequality and the…
In this article we prove a global result in the spirit of Basener's theorem regarding the relation between q-pseudoconvexity and q-holomorphic convexity: we prove that any smoothly bounded strictly q-pseudoconvex open subset of the complex…
Suppose that $A$ is a convex body in the plane and that $A_1,\dots,A_n$ are translates of $A$. Such translates give rise to an intersection graph of $A$, $G=(V,E)$, with vertices $V=\{1,\dots,n\}$ and edges $E=\{uv\mid A_u\cap A_v\neq…
We investigate the intersection body of a convex polytope using tools from combinatorics and real algebraic geometry. In particular, we show that the intersection body of a polytope is always a semialgebraic set and provide an algorithm for…
