We consider the classical Wicksell corpuscle problem with spherical particles in R^n and investigate the shapes of lower tails of distributions of `sphere radii' in R^n and `sphere radii' in a k-dimensional section plane. We show in which…

Let a $R$-body be a closed set, complement of union of open balls of radius $R$ in the Euclidean space. Properties generalizing similar ones for convex sets are proved for the family of $R$-bodies; properties for the family of sets…

We give explicit integral formulas for the solutions of planar conjugate conductivity equations in a circular domain of the right half-plane with conductivity $\sigma(x,y)=x^p$, $p\in\mathbb{Z}$. The representations are obtained via a…

Let $k\ge 2$ be a fixed integer. We consider sums of type $\sum_{n_1^2+\cdots+ n_k^2\le x} F(n_1,\ldots,n_k)$, taken over the $k$-dimensional spherical region $\{(n_1,\ldots,n_k)\in {\Bbb Z}^k: n_1^2+\cdots+ n_k^2\le x\}$, where $F:{\Bbb…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R} ^d$, with $d = 2,3$. We determine sharp sufficient conditions for a set $E$ composed of $1$, $2$, or $3$ points of ${\rm bd}K$, to contain at least one endpoint of a diameter of $K$ (for $d=2,3$). We…

Given a convex body $K\subset \mathbb R^2$ we say that a circle $\Omega\subset \text{int} \ K$ is an equipotential circle if every tangent line of $\Omega$ cuts a chord $AB$ in $K$ such that for the contact point $P=\Omega\cap AB$ it holds…

After different variables and functions changes, the generalized dispersal problem, recalled in (1) below and considered in part I, see [14], leads us to invert a sum of linear operators in a suitable Banach space, see (2) below. The…

Let us consider a sphere $S^{n-1}$ of radius $r$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, where we have fixed poles $N$ and $S$. Suppose that $K$ is a set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ containing a translated copy of each meridian (that is an $S^{n-2}$-sphere) of $S^{n-1}$.…

For a convex domain $D$ that is enclosed by the hypersurface $\partial D$ of bounded normal curvature, we prove an angle comparison theorem for angles between $\partial D$ and geodesic rays starting from some fixed point in $D$, and the…

Computing the envelope of deforming planar domains is a significant and challenging problem with a wide range of potential applications. We approximate the envelope using circular arc splines, curves that balance geometric flexibility and…

Although much research has been devoted to extremal problems on non-overlapping domains little is known about all solutions of this problems. We generalized some of this problems on the case of more general systems of points. It was solved…

Chv\'{a}tal and Klincsek (1980) gave an $O(n^3)$-time algorithm for the problem of finding a maximum-cardinality convex subset of an arbitrary given set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane. This paper examines a generalization of the problem,…

Given N points in the plane $P_1 P_2...P_N$ and a location $\Omega$, the union of discs with diameters $[\Omega P_i], i = 1, 2,...N$ covers the convex hull of the points. The location $\Omega_s$ minimizing the area covered by the union of…

We introduce a notion of $k$-convexity and explore polygons in the plane that have this property. Polygons which are \mbox{$k$-convex} can be triangulated with fast yet simple algorithms. However, recognizing them in general is a 3SUM-hard…

We show that the hyperplane conjecture holds for the classes of $k$-intersection bodies with arbitrary measures in place of volume.

A $d$-dimensional simplex in Euclidean space is called orthocentric if all of its altitudes intersect at a single point, referred to as the orthocenter. We explicitly compute the internal and external angles at all faces of an orthocentric…

We consider ensembles of planar maps with two marked vertices at distance k from each other and look at the closed line separating these vertices and lying at distance d from the first one (d<k). This line divides the map into two…

A new characterization of convexity of a planar domain is obtained. Its derivation involves two classical facts: the Varadhan's formula, expressing the distance function with respect to the domain's boundary via real-valued solutions of the…

We study the interior angle sums of translation and geodesic triangles in the universal cover of Sl2(R) geometry. We prove that the angle sum is larger then pi for translation triangles and for geodesic triangles the angle sum can be…

This paper is concerned with the study of the dimension theory of tensor products of algebras over a field $k$. We answer an open problem set in [6] and compute dim$(A\otimes_kB)$ when $A$ is a $k$-algebra arising from a specific pullback…
