The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr.~on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose…

We show that a class of Poincar\'e-Wirtinger inequalities on bounded convex sets can be obtained by means of the dynamical formulation of Optimal Transport. This is a consequence of a more general result valid for convex sets, possibly…

In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing L_p-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the L_p-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we…

We consider shape optimization problems of the form $$\min\big\{J(\Omega)\ :\ \Omega\subset X,\ m(\Omega)\le c\big\},$$ where $X$ is a metric measure space and $J$ is a suitable shape functional. We adapt the notions of $\gamma$-convergence…

For a non-empty, bounded, open, and convex set of class $C^2$, we consider the Torsional Rigidity associated to the $k$-Hessian operator. We first prove P\'olya type lower bound for the $k$-Torsional Rigidity in any dimension; then, in…
