We give conditions characterizing equality in the Minkowski inequality for big divisors on a projective variety. Our results draw on the extensive history of research on Minkowski inequalities in algebraic geometry.
We discuss the notions of circumradius, inradius, diameter, and minimum width in generalized Minkowski spaces (that is, with respect to gauges), i.e., we measure the "size" of a given convex set in a finite-dimensional real vector space…
A Minkowski class is a closed subset of the space of convex bodies in Euclidean space Rn which is closed under Minkowski addition and non-negative dilatations. A convex body in Rn is universal if the expansion of its support function in…
We describe classes of potential structures (covector fields) on Minkowski space that admit subgroups of the Poincar\'{e} group. We describe also seven classes of Maxwell spaces that admit subgroups of the Poincar\'{e} group.
The properties of the quantum Minkowski space algebra are discussed. Its irreducible representations with highest weight vectors are constructed and relations to other quantum algebras: $su_{q}(2)$, $q$-oscillator, $q$-sphere are pointed…
In this paper we introduce the systematic study of invariant functions and equivariant mappings defined on Minkowski space under the action of the Lorentz group. We adapt some known results from the orthogonal group acting on the Euclidean…
Under study are some vector optimization problems over the space of Minkowski balls, i.e., symmetric convex compact subsets in Euclidean space. A typical problem requires to achieve the best result in the presence of conflicting goals;…
Using general but simple covariance arguments, we classify the `quantum' Minkowski spaces for dimensionless deformation parameters. This requires a previous analysis of the associated Lorentz groups, which reproduces a previous…
This is the first part of a series of articles where we are going to develop theory of valuations on manifolds generalizing the classical theory of continuous valuations on convex subsets of a linear space. In this article we still work…
We consider warped compactifications of ${\cal M}$-theory to three-dimensional Minkowski space on compact eight-manifolds. Taking all the leading quantum gravity corrections of eleven-dimensional supergravity into account we obtain the…
We classify all continuous valuations on the space of finite convex functions with values in the same space which are dually epi-translation-invariant and equi- resp. contravariant with respect to volume-preserving linear maps. We thereby…
Several open problems concerning Minkowski endomorphisms and Minkowski valuations are solved. More precisely, it is proved that all Minkowski endomorphisms are uniformly continuous but that there exist Minkowski endomorphisms that are not…
The complex Minkowski phase space has the physical interpretation of the phase space of the scalar massive conformal particle. The aim of the paper is the construction and investigation of the quantum complex Minkowski space.
An introduction to geometric valuation theory is given. The focus is on classification results for $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ invariant and rigid motion invariant valuations on convex bodies and on convex functions.
We present a complete classification of $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ contravariant, $C(\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{o\})$-valued valuations on polytopes, without any additional assumptions.It extends the previous results of the second author [Int.…
We present elements of a theory of translation-invariant integration on finite dimensional vector spaces and on GL_n over a valuation field with local field as residue field. We then discuss the case of an arbitrary algebraic group. This…
The differential calculus on n-dimensional quantum Minkowski space covariant with respect to left action of Kappa-Poincar'e group is constructed and its uniqueness is shown.
We provide a characterization of the finite dimensionality of vector spaces in terms of the right-sided invertibility of linear operators on them.
In the case of symmetries with respect to n independent linear hyperplanes, a stability version of the logarithmic Brunn-Minkowski inequality and the logarithmic Minkowski inequality for convex bodies is established.
We survey elementary results in Minkowski spaces (i.e. finite dimensional Banach spaces) that deserve to be collected together, and give simple proofs for some of them. We place special emphasis on planar results. Many of these results have…
