A 3-dimensional polytope is called k-equiprojective if every planar projection along a direction non-parallel to any facet is a k-gon. In this article, we generalise equiprojectivity to higher dimensions and give a lower bound on the number…
Suppose $f\in L^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is a finite union of translated lattices such that $f+\Lambda$ tiles with a weight. We prove that there exists a lattice $L\subset{\mathbb{R}}^d$ such that $f+L$ also tiles,…
Assuming an integral quadratic polynomial with nonsingular quadratic part has a nontrivial zero on an integer lattice outside of a union of finite-index sublattices, we prove that there exists such a zero of bounded norm and provide an…
We prove area bounds for planar convex bodies in terms of their number of interior integral points and their lattice width data. As an application, we obtain sharp area bounds for rational polygons with a fixed number of interior integral…
Let $P$ be a rational polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a class of $d$-dimensional maximal lattice-free rational polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For $L \in \mathcal{L}$ by $R_L(P)$ we denote the convex hull of points…
While faces of a polytope form a well structured lattice, in which faces of each possible dimension are present, this is not true for general compact convex sets. We address the question of what dimensional patterns are possible for the…
Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…
In this paper we motivate some new directions of research regarding the lattice width of convex bodies. We show that convex bodies of sufficiently large width contain a unimodular copy of a standard simplex. This implies that every lattice…
We study $n$-vertex $d$-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, $d+s$ vertices, called {\it almost simplicial polytopes}. We provide tight lower and upper bound theorems for these polytopes as functions of $d,n$…
Let us consider the set of all joint probabilities generated by local binary measurements on two separated quantum systems of a given local dimension d. We address the question of whether the shape of this quantum body is convex or not. We…
We consider unimodality and related properties of f-vectors of polytopes in various dimensions. By a result of Kalai (1988), f-vectors of 5-polytopes are unimodal. In higher dimensions much less can be said; we give an overview on current…
We introduce topological prismatoids, a combinatorial abstraction of the (geometric) prismatoids recently introduced by the second author to construct counter-examples to the Hirsch conjecture. We show that the `strong $d$-step Theorem'…
We propose to extend the d'Humi\'eres version of the lattice Boltzmann scheme to triangular meshes. We use Bravais lattices or more general lattices with the property that the degree of each internal vertex is supposed to be constant. On…
In this note we show that the volume of axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which do not intersect an admissible lattice $\mathbb{L}\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is uniformly bounded. In particular, this implies that the dispersion of the dilated…
In this paper, we prove $L^2 \to L^p$ estimates, where $p>2$, for spectral projectors on a wide class of hyperbolic surfaces. More precisely, we consider projections in small spectral windows $[\lambda-\eta,\lambda+\eta]$ on geometrically…
We show that any finite $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in general position has arbitrarily large supersets $T \supseteq S$ in general position with the property that $T$ contains no empty convex polygon, or hole, with $C_d$ points, where $C_d$ is…
Let $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a lattice polytope of dimension $d$. Let $b$ denote the number of lattice points belonging to the boundary of $\mathcal{P}$ and $c$ that to the interior of $\mathcal{P}$. It follows from a lower…
We show that an integer-valued quadratic polynomial on $\mathbb{R}^2$ can not be injective on the integer lattice points of any affine convex cone if its discriminant is nonzero. A consequence is the non-existence of quadratic packing…
We find tight estimates for the minimum number of proper subspaces needed to cover all lattice points in an n-dimensional convex body symmetric about the origin. We also find the order of magnitude of the number of (n-1)-dimensional…
We introduce Tadao Oda's famous question on lattice polytopes which was originally posed at Oberwolfach in 1997 and, although simple to state, has remained unanswered. The question is motivated by a discussion of the two-dimensional case -…
