In this paper, we study the problem of finding the Euclidean distance to a convex cone generated by a set of discrete points in $\mathbb{R}^n_+$. In particular, we are interested in problems where the discrete points are the set of feasible…

In this paper, the isodiametric problem for centrally symmetric convex bodies in the Euclidean d-space R^d containing no interior non-zero point of a lattice L is studied. It is shown that the intersection of a suitable ball with the…

Positive solutions of homogeneous Dirichlet boundary value problems or initial-value problems for certain elliptic or parabolic equations must be radially symmetric and monotone in the radial direction if just one of their level surfaces is…

One of the most important problems in Geometric Tomography is to establish properties of a given convex body if we know some properties over its sections or its projections. There are many interesting and deep results that provide…

For a given $\lambda >0$, a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ is $\lambda$-convex if it is the intersection of (finitely or infinitely many) balls of radius $1/\lambda$. In this note, we show that among all $\lambda$-convex bodies in $\mathbb…

Behling, Bello-Cruz, Lara-Urdaneta, Oviedo, and Santos showed that the circumcentric direction $d$ of a finitely generated polyhedral cone $\KK\subset\RR^n$ admits an inscribed Euclidean ball of radius $\norm{d}^2$ inside the polar cone…

We show the counter-intuitive fact that some weighted isoperimetric problems on the half-space $ \mathbb{R}^N _+ $, for which half-balls centered at the origin are stable, have no solutions. A particular case is the measure $d\mu = x_N…

In this article we consider the anisotropic Calderon problem and related inverse problems. The approach is based on limiting Carleman weights, introduced in Kenig-Sjoestrand-Uhlmann (Ann. of Math. 2007) in the Euclidean case. We…

We show that the perimeter of the convex hull of finitely many disks lying in the hyperbolic or Euclidean plane, or in a hemisphere does not increase when the disks are rearranged so that the distances between their centers do not increase.…

It is a well-known fact -- which can be shown by elementary calculus -- that the volume of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ decays to zero and simultaneously gets concentrated on the thin shell near the boundary sphere as $n \nearrow…

We describe the first-order variations of the angles of Euclidean, spherical or hyperbolic polygons under infinitesimal deformations such that the lengths of the edges do not change. Using this description, we introduce a vector-valued…

The aim of this note is to investigate isoperimetric-type problems for $3$-dimensional parallelohedra; that is, for convex polyhedra whose translates tile the $3$-dimensional Euclidean space. Our main result states that among…

We study a class of isoperimetric problems on $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+} $ where the densities of the weighted volume and weighted perimeter are given by two different non-radial functions of the type $|x|^k x_N^\alpha$. Our results imply some…

The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane for any given area. On hyperbolic surfaces, this "isoperimetric" problem differs for every given area, as solutions do not scale. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile…

P\'al's classical isominwidth inequality states that the regular triangle has minimal area among plane convex bodies of minimal width $w$. A similar result is the Blaschke--Lebesgue inequality that states that Reuleaux triangles minimize…

In this work, we establish a sharp form of a nonlocal quantitative isoperimetric inequality involving the barycentric asymmetry for convex sets. This result can be seen as the nonlocal analogue of the one obtained by Fuglede in 1993.
