We consider the nonlinear wave equation, with a large exponent, power-like non-linearity, outside a ball of the Euclidean 3-dimensional space. In a previous article, we have proved that any global solution converges, up to a radiation term,…
In this note we examine the volume of the convex hull of two congruent copies of a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space, under some subsets of the isometry group of the space. We prove inequalities for this volume if the two bodies are…
It is proved by Brendle in [4] that the equatorial disk $D^k$ has least area among $k$-dimensional free boundary minimal surfaces in the Euclidean ball $B^n$. By comparing the excess of free boundary minimal surfaces with the excess of the…
We show that a wide range of overdetermined boundary problems for semilinear equations with position-dependent nonlinearities admits nontrivial solutions. The result holds true both on the Euclidean space and on compact Riemannian…
We consider the volume of a Boolean expression of some congruent balls about a given system of centers in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. When the radius $r$ of the balls is large, this volume can be approximated by a polynomial of…

Eggleston (1957) proved that in the Euclidean plane the best approximating convex $n$-gon to a convex disc $K$ is always inscribed in $K$ if we measure the distance by perimeter deviation. We prove that the analogue of Eggleston's statement…
In this paper, we mainly consider the relative isoperimetric inequalities for minimal submanifolds with free boundary. We first generalize ideas of restricted normal cones introduced by Choe-Ghomi-Ritor\'e in \cite{CGR06} and obtain an…
In this note we introduce the problem of illumination of convex bodies in spherical spaces and solve it for a large subfamily of convex bodies. We derive from it a combinatorial version of the classical illumination problem for convex…
High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to spherical, Euclidean and…
We received a solution of the shadow problem in n-dimensional Euclidean space for a family of sets, constructing from any convex domain having nonempty interior with the help of parallel translations and homotheties. We find a number of…
We construct low regularity solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations. In particular, on 3-manifolds we obtain solutions with metrics in $H^s\loc$ with $s>{3\over 2}$. The theory of maximal asymptotically Euclidean solutions of…
It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…
We study polynomials with no zeros on the unit ball in complex Euclidean space with a view toward characterizing when a rational function is bounded on the ball. We give a complete local description of such polynomials in two variables near…
