We consider a spherical antiprism. It is a convex polyhedron with $2n$ vertices in the spherical space $\mathbb{S}^3$. This polyhedron has a group of symmetries $S_{2n}$ generated by a mirror-rotational symmetry of order $2n$, i.e. rotation…
Given five points in a three-dimensional euclidean space, one can consider five tetrahedra, using those points as vertices. We present a pentagon-like formula containing the product of three volumes of those tetrahedra in its l.h.s. and the…
If the four triangular facets of a tetrahedron can be partitioned into pairs having the same area, then the triangles in each pair must be congruent to one another. A Heron-style formula is then derived for the volume of a tetrahedron…

We give a closed formula for volumes of generic hyperbolic tetrahedra in terms of edge lengths. The cue of our formula is by the volume conjecture for the Turaev-Viro invariant of closed 3-manifolds, which is defined from the quantum…
We propose an approach to find constant curvature metrics on triangulated closed 3-manifolds using a finite dimensional variational method whose energy function is the volume. The concept of an angle structure on a tetrahedron and on a…
The volume of a Meissner polyhedron is computed in terms of the lengths of its dual edges. This allows to reformulate the Meissner conjecture regarding constant width bodies with minimal volume as a series of explicit finite dimensional…
Several identities similar to the Schlaefli formula are established for tetrahedra in a space of constant curvature.
A generalized hyperbolic tetrahedra is a polyhedron (possibly non-compact) with finite volume in hyperbolic space, obtained from a tetrahedron by the polar truncation at the vertices lying outside the space. In this paper it is proved that…
The present paper regards the volume function of a doubly truncated hyperbolic tetrahedron. Starting from the previous results of J. Murakami, U. Yano and A. Ushijima, we have developed a unified approach to express the volume in different…
We provide sharp lower bounds for the simplicial volume of compact $3$-manifolds in terms of the simplicial volume of their boundaries. As an application, we compute the simplicial volume of several classes of $3$-manifolds, including…
The mean width is a measure on three-dimensional convex bodies that enjoys equal status with volume and surface area [Rota]. As the phrase suggests, it is the mean of a probability density f. We verify formulas for mean widths of the…
Hyperideal tetrahedra are the fundamental building blocks of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary. The study of their geometric properties (in particular, of their volume) has applications also in other areas of low-dimensional…
A ball polyhedron is a finite intersection of congruent balls in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These shapes arise in various contexts in discrete and convex geometry. We focus on Reuleaux polyhedra, the subclass of ball polyhedra whose centers and…
We consider the problem of determination of a volume of some bounded space-like hypersurfaces in the case of spherically symmetric spacetimes. In the case when the hypersurfaces is cut or bounded by a light-like hypersurface the problem may…
