The r-parallel set to a set A in a Euclidean space consists of all points with distance at most r from A. We clarify the relation between the volume and the surface area of parallel sets and study the asymptotic behaviour of both quantities…
It was shown recently that the Minkowski content of a bounded set $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with volume zero can be characterized in terms of the asymptotic behaviour of the boundary surface area of its parallel sets $A_r$ as the parallel…
The interrelations between (upper and lower) Minkowski contents and (upper and lower) surface area based contents (S-contents) as well as between their associated dimensions have recently been investigated for general sets in R^d (cf. [3]).…
It is easy to show that the lower and the upper box dimensions of a bounded set in Euclidean space are invariant with respect to the ambient space. In this article we show that the Minkowski content of a Minkowski measurable set is also…
The $r$-parallel set of a measurable set $A \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ is the set of all points whose distance from $A$ is at most $r$. In this paper, we show that the surface area of an $r$-parallel set in $\mathbb R^d$ with volume at most $V$…
The problem of estimating, from a random sample of points, the dimension of a compact subset $S$ of the Euclidean space is considered. The emphasis is put on consistency results in the statistical sense. That is, statements of convergence…
We prove that at differentiability points $r_0>0$ of the volume function of a compact set $A\subset {\mathbb R}^d$ (associating to $r$ the volume of the $r$-parallel set of $A$), the surface area measures of $r$-parallel sets of $A$…
We investigate (local) Minkowski measurability of $\mathcal C^{1+\alpha}$ images of self-similar sets. We show that (local) Minkowski measurability of a self-similar set $K$ implies (local) Minkowski measurability of its image $F$ and…
A subset of a metric space is a k-distance set if there are exactly k non-zero distances occuring between points. We conjecture that a k-distance set in a d-dimensional Banach space (or Minkowski space), contains at most (k+1)^d points,…
We show that every finite-dimensional Euclidean space contains compact universal differentiability sets of upper Minkowski dimension one. In other words, there are compact sets $S$ of upper Minkowski dimension one such that every Lipschitz…
The Minkowski content of a compact set is a fine measure of its geometric scaling. For Lebesgue null sets it measures the decay of the Lebesgue measure of epsilon neighbourhoods of the set. It is well known that self-similar sets,…
Minkowski's classical existence theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for a Borel measure on the unit sphere of Euclidean space to be the surface area measure of a convex body. The solution is unique up to a translation. We…
We propose to derive deviation measures through the Minkowski gauge of a given set of acceptable positions. We show that, given a suitable acceptance set, any positive homogeneous deviation measure can be accommodated in our framework. In…
We show that given a real number $p<1$, a positive integer $n$ and a proper subspace $H$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, the measure on the Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, which is concentrated in $H$ and whose restriction to the class of Borel…
The famous Minkowski inequality provides a sharp lower bound for the mixed volume $V(K,M[n-1])$ of two convex bodies $K,M\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ in terms of powers of the volumes of the individual bodies $K$ and $M$. The special case where $K$…
We use a characterization of Minkowski measurability to study the asymptotics of best packing on cut-out subsets of the real line with Minkowski dimension $d\in(0,1)$. Our main result is a proof that Minkowski measurability is a sufficient…
Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…
We consider a complete, totally umbilical hypersurface $M$ of Riemannian space $(\hat{R}^n, \hat{g})$ induced by a Minkowski space $(R^n, F)$. Under certain conditions we prove that $M$ is isometric to a "round" hypersphere of the $(n +…
We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…
Dimensional types of metric scattered spaces are investigated. Revised proofs of Mazurkiewicz-Sierpi\'nski and Knaster-Urbanik theorems are presented. Embeddable properties of countable metric spaces are generalized onto uncountable metric…
