We prove an isoperimetric inequality for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body and for a class of uniformly log-concave measures (that we introduce). These inequalities imply (up to universal constants) the log-Sobolev inequalities…
Consider a convex polygon P in the plane, and denote by U a homothetical copy of the vector sum of P and (-P). Then the polygon U, as unit ball, induces a norm such that, with respect to this norm, P has constant Minkowskian width. We…
Let $m(G)$ be the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. Suppose integrable functions $\phi_1 , \phi_2 \colon G \to [0,1]$ satisfy $\| \phi_1 \| \leq \| \phi_2 \|$ and $\| \phi_1 \| + \|…
A new intrinsic volume metric is introduced for the class of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$. As an application, an inequality is proved for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by arbitrarily positioned polytopes…
In this paper we revisit the anisotropic isoperimetric and the Brunn-Minkowski inequalities for convex sets. The best known constant $C(n)=Cn^{7}$ depending on the space dimension $n$ in both inequalities is due to Segal [\ref{bib:Seg.}].…
We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…
General results on convex bodies are reviewed and used to derive an exact closed-form parametric formula for the Minkowski sum boundary of $m$ arbitrary ellipsoids in $N$-dimensional Euclidean space. Expressions for the principal curvatures…
We study the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for even log-concave probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ via an analytic approach based on diffusion operators and gradient estimates. Our main result asserts that for every pair…
The long-standing Godbersen's conjecture asserts that the Rogers-Shephard inequality for the volume of the difference body is refined by an inequality for the mixed volume of a convex body and its reflection about the origin. The conjecture…
In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…
The Brunn-Minkowski Theorem asserts that $\mu_d(A+B)^{1/d}\geq \mu_d(A)^{1/d}+\mu_d(B)^{1/d}$ for convex bodies $A,\,B\subseteq \R^d$, where $\mu_d$ denotes the $d$-dimensional Lebesgue measure. It is well-known that equality holds if and…
In this paper we state a one-to-one connection between the maximal ratio of the circumradius and the diameter of a body (the Jung constant) in an arbitrary Minkowski space and the maximal Minkowski asymmetry of the complete bodies within…
The Blaschke-Santal\'o inequality states that the volume product $|K| \cdot |K^{o}|$ of a symmetric convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is maximized by the standard Euclidean unit-ball. Cordero-Erausquin asked whether the inequality…
Under study are some vector optimization problems over the space of Minkowski balls, i.e., symmetric convex compact subsets in Euclidean space. A typical problem requires to achieve the best result in the presence of conflicting goals;…
We establish estimates for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by polytopes under a notion of distance induced by the intrinsic volumes. We also introduce a notion of distance between convex bodies that is induced…
The Brunn-Minkowski inequality, applicable to bounded measurable sets $A$ and $B$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, states that $|A+B|^{1/d} \geq |A|^{1/d}+|B|^{1/d}$. Equality is achieved if and only if $A$ and $B$ are convex and homothetic sets in…
A description of continuous rigid motion compatible Minkowski valuations is established. As an application, we present a Brunn-Minkowski type inequality for intrinsic volumes of these valuations.
In this paper, combining the covolume, we study the Minkowski theory for the non-compact convex set with an asymptotic boundary condition. In particular, the mixed covolume of two non-compact convex sets is introduced and its geometric…
We prove a quantitative stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality: if $|A|=|B|=1$, $t \in [\tau,1-\tau]$ with $\tau>0$, and $|tA+(1-t)B|^{1/n}\leq 1+\delta$ for some small $\delta$, then, up to a translation, both $A$ and $B$ are…
In this work, the $L_p$ version (for $p> 1$) of the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma_n(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is shown. More precisely, we prove that for any $0$-symmetric convex sets with…
