In 1957, Hadwiger conjectured that every convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be covered by $2^d$ translates of its interior. For over 60 years, the best known bound was of the form $O(4^d \sqrt{d} \log d)$, but this was recently improved by a…

The aim of this paper is to give not only an explicit upper bound of the total Q-curvature but also an induced isoperimetric deficit formula for the complete conformal metrics on $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 3$ with scalar curvature being…

We prove an almost constant lower bound of the isoperimetric coefficient in the KLS conjecture. The lower bound has the dimension dependency $d^{-o_d(1)}$. When the dimension is large enough, our lower bound is tighter than the previous…

Let $K$ be an isotropic symmetric convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We show that a subspace $F\in G_{n,n-k}$ of codimension $k=\gamma n$, where $\gamma\in (1/\sqrt{n},1)$, satisfies $$K\cap F\subseteq \frac{c}{\gamma }\sqrt{n}L_K (B_2^n\cap…

This paper presents bounds for the best approximation, with respect to the Hausdorff metric, of a convex body $K$ by a circumscribed polytope $P$ with a given number of facets. These bounds are of particular interest if $K$ is elongated. To…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Let $ d_{n,n-1}(K)$ be the smallest possible density of a non-separable lattice of translates of $K$. In this paper we prove the estimate $d_{2,1}(K)\leq \frac{\pi\sqrt{3}}{8}$ for $K\subset…

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…

A central problem in discrete geometry, known as Hadwiger's covering problem, asks what the smallest natural number $N\left(n\right)$ is such that every convex body in ${\mathbb R}^{n}$ can be covered by a union of the interiors of at most…

We characterize all (absolute) 1-Lipschitz retracts Q of R^n with the maximum norm. Omitting two technical details, they coincide with the subsets written as the solution set of (at most) 2n inequalities like follows. For every coordinate…

In 2013, Koldobsky posed the problem to find a constant $d_n$, depending only on the dimension $n$, such that for any origin-symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ there exists an $(n-1)$-dimensional linear subspace…

Given a convex body K in R^n and p in R, we introduce and study the extremal inner and outer affine surface areas IS_p(K) = sup_{K'\subseteq K} (as_p(K') ) and os_p(K)=inf_{K'\supseteq K} (as_p(K') ), where as_p(K') denotes the L_p-affine…

We propose a new method for identifying cutting locations for quantum circuit cutting, with a primary focus on partitioning circuits into three or more parts. Under the assumption that the classical postprocessing function is decomposable,…

For any large prime $q$, $1 \leq x \leq q$ and any real $0 \leq k \leq 1$, we prove an upper bound for the following $2k$-th moment $$\displaystyle \sum_{\substack{\chi \bmod q}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)\lambda(n)\Big|^{2k},$$ where…

Let $C$ and $K$ be centrally symmetric convex bodies of volume $1$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We provide upper bounds for the multi-integral expression \begin{equation*}\|{\bf…

Let $p$ be a large prime number, $K,L,M,\lambda$ be integers with $1\le M\le p$ and ${\color{red}\gcd}(\lambda,p)=1.$ The aim of our paper is to obtain sharp upper bound estimates for the number $I_2(M; K,L)$ of solutions of the congruence…

In this paper we consider several instances of the k-center on a line problem where the goal is, given a set of points S in the plane and a parameter k >= 1, to find k disks with centers on a line l such that their union covers S and the…

In this work we study upper bounds for the ratio of successive inner and outer radii of a convex body K. This problem was studied by Perel'man and Pukhov and it is a natural generalization of the classical results of Jung and Steinhagen. We…

A $\sqrt{n}$ estimate in the hyperplane problem with arbitrary measures has recently been proved in \cite{K3}. In this note we present analogs of this result for sections of lower dimensions and in the complex case. We deduce these…

First we consider families in the hypercube $Q_n$ with bounded VC dimension. Frankl raised the problem of estimating the number $m(n,k)$ of maximal families of VC dimension $k$. Alon, Moran and Yehudayoff showed that…
