Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…

We introduce complex intersection bodies and show that their properties and applications are similar to those of their real counterparts. In particular, we generalize Busemann's theorem to the complex case by proving that complex…

We study relative symplectic cobordisms between contact submanifolds, and in particular relative symplectic cobordisms to the empty set, that we call hats. While we make some observations in higher dimensions, we focus on the case of…

Frames provide redundant, stable representations of data which have important applications in signal processing. We introduce a connection between symplectic geometry and frame theory and show that many important classes of frames have…

We give an explicit form of particle-size distributions of convex similar bodies for random plane and random line, which naturally generalize famous Wicksell's corpuscle problem. The results are achieved by applying the Method of Model…

We construct symplectic blenders for two classical Hamiltonian systems: the 3-body problem and its restricted version. We use these objects to show that both models exhibit a robust, strong form of topological instability. We do not assume…

For a hyperplane $H$ supporting a convex body $C$ in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$ we define the width of $C$ determined by $H$ as the distance between $H$ and a most distant ultraparallel hyperplane supporting $C$. The minimum width…

The Hamilton-Jacobi problem is revisited bearing in mind the consequences arising from a possible bi-Hamiltonian structure. The problem is formulated on the tangent bundle for Lagrangian systems in order to avoid the bias of the existence…

Polynomial spaces associated to a convex body $C$ in $({\bf R}^+)^d$ have been the object of recent studies. In this work, we consider polynomial spaces associated to non-convex $C$. We develop some basic pluripotential theory including…

We study symplectic linear algebra over the ring $\Rt$ of Colombeau generalized numbers. Due to the algebraic properties of $\Rt$ it is possible to preserve a number of central results of classical symplectic linear algebra. In particular,…

Symplectic fillings of standard tight contact structures on lens spaces are understood and classified. The situation is different if one considers non-standard tight structures (i.e. those that are virtually overtwisted), for which a…

A basic arbitrariness in the determination of the topology of a manifold at the Planck length is discussed. An explicit example is given of a `smooth' change in topology from the 2-sphere to the 2-torus through a sequence of noncommuting…

We give finiteness results and some classifications up to diffeomorphism of minimal strong symplectic fillings of Seifert fibered spaces over S^2 satisfying certain conditions, with a fixed natural contact structure. In some cases we can…
