For a convex body B in three-dimensional Euclidean space, which is invariant under rotations around one coordinate axis and has a smooth boundary of bounded nonzero curvature, the lattice point discrepancy (number of integer points minus…

Let T be the unit circle in the complex plane C. This paper proves the existence of analytic structure in a compact subset K of T X C^n, where K has so-called "lineally convex" or "hypoconvex" fibers over T. It also addresses a related…

The hull perimeter at distance d in a planar map with two marked vertices at distance k from each other is the length of the closed curve separating these two vertices and lying at distance d from the first one (d<k). We study the…

We study the problem of reconstructing a convex body using only a finite number of measurements of outer normal vectors. More precisely, we suppose that the normal vectors are measured at independent random locations uniformly distributed…

We prove that the length of the projection of the vector joining the centers of mass of a convex body on the plane and of its boundary to an arbitrary direction does not exceed $\frac{1}{6}$ of the body width in this direction. It follows…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (i.e., a compact convex set with nonempty interior). Given a point $p$ in the interior of $K$, a hyperplane $h$ passing through $p$ is called barycentric if $p$ is the barycenter of $K \cap h$. In…

In [BL] in relation to the unsolved Bang's plank problem (1951) we obtained a lower bound for the sum of relevant measures of cylinders covering a given d-dimensional convex body. In this paper we provide the packing counterpart of these…

The Rolling Ball Theorem asserts that given a convex body K in Euclidean space and having a smooth surface bd(K) with all principal curvatures not exceeding c>0 at all boundary points, K necessarily has the property that to each boundary…

A vanishing theorem for a convex cocompact hyperbolic manifold is established, which relates the L2 cohomology to the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set. The borderline case is shown to characterize the manifold completely.

It has been shown beneficial for many types of data which present an underlying hierarchical structure to be embedded in hyperbolic spaces. Consequently, many tools of machine learning were extended to such spaces, but only few…

In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…

We show that the polyhedron defined as the convex hull of the lattice points above the hyperbola $\left\{xy = n\right\}$ has between $\Omega(n^{1/3})$ and $O(n^{1/3} \log n)$ vertices. The same bounds apply to any hyperbola with rational…

The deviation of a general convex body with twice differentiable boundary and an arbitrarily positioned polytope with a given number of vertices is studied. The paper considers the case where the deviation is measured in terms of the…

This paper considers the question of how to succinctly approximate a multidimensional convex body by a polytope. Given a convex body $K$ of unit diameter in Euclidean $d$-dimensional space (where $d$ is a constant) and an error parameter…

Let $K$ and $L$ be two convex bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 2$, with $L\subset \text{int}\, K$. We say that $L$ is an equichordal body for $K$ if every chord of $K$ tangent to $L$ has length equal to a given fixed value $\lambda$. J.…

We study empirical variants of the halfspace (Tukey) depth of a probability measure $\mu$, which are obtained by replacing $\mu$ with the corresponding weighted empirical measure. We prove analogues of the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund strong law…

We obtain a sharp characterization of the Euclidean ball among all convex bodies K whose boundary has a pointwise k-th mean curvature not smaller than a geometric constant at almost all normal points. This geometric constant depends only on…

We show that there is a constant $D \approx 0.2016$ such that for every $n$, every convex body $K\subset \mathbb R^n$, and every hyperplane $H\subset \mathbb R^n$, the distance between the projection of the centroid of $K$ onto $H$ and the…

We provide an affirmative answer to a variant of the Busemann-Petty problem, proposed by V.~Milman: Let $K$ be a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and let $D$ be a compact subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$ such that, for some $1\ls k\ls n-1$,…

We introduce a coarse combinatorial description of the Weil-Petersson distance d_WP(X,Y) between two finite area hyperbolic Riemann surfaces X and Y. The combinatorics reveal a connection between Riemann surfaces and hyperbolic 3-manifolds…
