Given $S= \{v_1, \dots, v_n\} \subset \mathbb{R} ^m$ and $p \in \mathbb{R} ^m$, testing if $p \in conv(S)$, the convex hull of $S$, is a fundamental problem in computational geometry and linear programming. First, we prove a Euclidean {\it…
Poincar{\'e} inequalities are ubiquitous in probability and analysis and have various applications in statistics (concentration of measure, rate of convergence of Markov chains). The Poincar{\'e} constant, for which the inequality is tight,…
The paper provides two versions of nonlocal Poincar\'e-type inequalities for integral operators with a convolution-type structure and functions satisfying a zero-Dirichlet like condition. The inequalities extend existing results to a large…
Let $V$ be a locally bounded measurable function such that $e^{-V}$ is bounded and belongs to $L^1(dx)$, and let $\mu_V(dx):=C_V e^{-V(x)} dx$ be a probability measure. We present the criterion for the weighted Poincar\'{e} inequality of…
A set in the Euclidean plane is said to be biconvex if, for some angle $\theta\in[0,\pi/2)$, all its sections along straight lines with inclination angles $\theta$ and $\theta+\pi/2$ are convex sets (i.e, empty sets or segments).…

For a $d$-dimensional random vector $X$, let $p_{n, X}(\theta)$ be the probability that the convex hull of $n$ independent copies of $X$ contains a given point $\theta$. We provide several sharp inequalities regarding $p_{n, X}(\theta)$ and…
We study the convex hull property for systems of partial differential equations. This is a generalisation of the maximum principle for a single equation. We show that the convex hull property holds for a class of elliptic and parabolic…
We study a Riemannian manifold equipped with a density which satisfies the Bakry--\'Emery Curvature-Dimension condition (combining a lower bound on its generalized Ricci curvature and an upper bound on its generalized dimension). We first…
Motivated by set estimation problems, we consider three closely related shape conditions for compact sets: positive reach, r-convexity and rolling condition. First, the relations between these shape conditions are analyzed. Second, we…
We study geometric characterizations of the Poincar\'{e} inequality in doubling metric measure spaces in terms of properties of separating sets. Given a couple of points and a set separating them, such properties are formulated in terms of…
We show that the Poincar\'{e} inequality holds on an open set $D\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ if and only if $D$ admits a smooth, bounded function whose Laplacian has a positive lower bound on $D$. Moreover, we prove that the existence of such a…
This work contributes to nonlocal vector calculus as an indispensable mathematical tool for the study of nonlocal models that arises in a variety of applications. We define the nonlocal half-ball gradient, divergence and curl operators with…

The volume function V(t) of a compact set S\in R^d is just the Lebesgue measure of the set of points within a distance to S not larger than t. According to some classical results in geometric measure theory, the volume function turns out to…
