The Brunn-Minkowski theory relies heavily on the notion of mixed volumes. Despite its particular importance, even explicit representations for the mixed volumes of two convex bodies in Euclidean space are available only in special cases.…

In this paper, we develop the general intersection theory of nef b-divisors, extending the movable intersection theory. We define a notion of restricted volume of b-divisors and prove a quantitative version of the monotonicity of the…

A quantitative version of Minkowski sum, extending the definition of $\theta$-convolution of convex bodies, is studied to obtain extensions of the Brunn-Minkowski and Zhang inequalities, as well as, other interesting properties on Convex…

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 study multivariate entire functions and polynomials with non-negative coefficients. A class of {\bf Strongly Log-Concave} entire functions, generalizing {\it Minkowski} volume polynomials, is introduced: an entire function $f$ in $m$…

In this paper we explore questions regarding the Minkowski sum of the boundaries of convex sets. Motivated by a question suggested to us by V.~Milman regarding the volume of $\partial K+ \partial T$ where $K$ and $T$ are convex bodies, we…

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 show that analytic analogs of Brunn-Minkowski-type inequalities fail for functional intrinsic volumes on convex functions. This is demonstrated both through counterexamples and by connecting the problem to results of Colesanti, Hug, and…

In a seminal paper "Volumen und Oberfl\"ache" (1903), Minkowski introduced the basic notion of mixed volumes and the corresponding inequalities that lie at the heart of convex geometry. The fundamental importance of characterizing the…
