The aim of this paper is to study properties of sections of convex bodies with respect to different types of measures. We present a formula connecting the Minkowski functional of a convex symmetric body K with the measure of its sections.…

Generalized polyhedral convex optimization problems in locally convex Hausdorff topological vector spaces are studied systematically in this paper. We establish solution existence theorems, necessary and sufficient optimality conditions,…

In this work we survey four classic problems: Borsuk's partition problem, Tarski's plank problem, the Kneser--Poulsen problem on the monotonicity of the union of balls under a contraction of their centers, and the Hadwiger--Levi problem on…

At a first glance, the problem of illuminating the boundary of a convex body by external light sources and the problem of covering a convex body by its smaller positive homothetic copies appear to be quite different. They are in fact two…

For a Banach space $X$ by $Conv_H(X)$ we denote the space of non-empty closed convex subsets of $X$, endowed with the Hausdorff metric. We prove that for any closed convex set $C\subset X$ and its metric component $H_C=\{A\in…

This paper addresses the study and characterizations of variational convexity of extended-real-valued functions on Banach spaces. This notion has been recently introduced by Rockafellar, and its importance has been already realized and…

We conjecture that whenever $M$ is a metric space of density at most continuum, then the space of Lipschitz functions is $w^*$-separable. We prove the conjecture for several classes of metric spaces including all the Banach spaces with a…

We prove bounds for the covering numbers of classes of convex functions and convex sets in Euclidean space. Previous results require the underlying convex functions or sets to be uniformly bounded. We relax this assumption and replace it…

We determine when a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is the closed unit ball of a reasonable crossnorm on $\mathbb{R}^{d_1}\otimes\cdots\otimes\mathbb{R}^{d_l},$ $d=d_1\cdots d_l.$ We call these convex bodies "tensorial bodies". We prove that,…

In the first part of this paper, we develop the theory of anisotropic curvature measures for convex bodies in the Euclidean space. It is proved that any convex body whose boundary anisotropic curvature measure equals a linear combination of…

We study the convergence and divergence of the wavelet expansion of a function in a Sobolev or a Besov space from a multifractal point of view. In particular, we give an upper bound for the Hausdorff and for the packing dimension of the set…

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we describe one (presumably) new case, in which Busemann--Hausdorff densities are convex. We apply the corresponding result to prove the existence of minimizing rectifiable chains of codimension…

We prove new versions of the isomorphic Busemann-Petty problem for two different measures and show how these results can be used to recover slicing and distance inequalities. We also prove a sharp upper estimate for the outer volume ratio…

The covariogram g_K(x) of a convex body K \subseteq E^d is the function which associates to each x \in E^d the volume of the intersection of K with K+x. Matheron asked whether g_K determines K, up to translations and reflections in a point.…
