The volume of a Meissner polyhedron is computed in terms of the lengths of its dual edges. This allows to reformulate the Meissner conjecture regarding constant width bodies with minimal volume as a series of explicit finite dimensional…

We formulate a generalization of the volume conjecture for planar graphs. Denoting by <G, c> the Kauffman bracket of the graph G whose edges are decorated by real "colors" c, the conjecture states that, under suitable conditions, certain…
The present paper considers volume formulae, as well as trigonometric identities, that hold for a tetrahedron in 3-dimensional spherical space of constant sectional curvature +1. The tetrahedron possesses a certain symmetry: namely rotation…
It is proved that the volume of spherical or hyperbolic simplices, when considered as a function of the dihedral angles, can be extended continuously to degenerated simplices.
The present paper gives two concrete formulas for the volume of an arbitrary spherical tetrahedron, which is in a 3-dimensional spherical space of constant curvature +1. One formula is given in terms of dihedral angles, and another one is…
We study the supremum of the volume of hyperbolic polyhedra with some fixed combinatorics and with vertices of any kind (real, ideal or hyperideal). We find that the supremum is always equal to the volume of the rectification of the…
The present paper regards the volume function of a doubly truncated hyperbolic tetrahedron. Starting from the previous results of J. Murakami, U. Yano and A. Ushijima, we have developed a unified approach to express the volume in different…
In this paper we obtain three results concerning the geometry of complete noncompact positively curved K\"{a}hler manifolds at infinity. The first one states that the order of volume growth of a complete noncompact K\"{a}hler manifold with…
Generalized permutahedra are the polytopes obtained from the permutahedron by changing the edge lengths while preserving the edge directions, possibly identifying vertices along the way. We introduce a "lifting" construction for these…
We discuss some recent results on flexible polyhedra and the bellows conjecture, which claims that the volume of any flexible polyhedron is constant during the flexion. Also, we survey main methods and several open problems in this area.

We show that the Volume Conjecture for polyhedra implies a weak version of the Stoker Conjecture; in turn we prove that this weak version of the Stoker conjecture implies the Stoker conjecture. The main tool used is an extension of a result…
In this paper we prove the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture for the case of large radii. Namely, if a finite number of points in Euclidean space $E^n$ is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of points does not decrease, then there…
Let $ K $ be a convex body in $ \mathbb{R}^n $. We denote the volume of $ K $ by $ \vert K\vert $, and the polar body of its difference body $ K - K $ by $ (K - K)^{\circ} $. We provide a new proof of the well-known estimate \[ |K||(K -…
If the four triangular facets of a tetrahedron can be partitioned into pairs having the same area, then the triangles in each pair must be congruent to one another. A Heron-style formula is then derived for the volume of a tetrahedron…
We consider two well-known problems: upper bounding the volume of lower dimensional ellipsoids contained in convex bodies given their John ellipsoid, and lower bounding the volume of ellipsoids containing projections of convex bodies given…
Given five points in a three-dimensional euclidean space, one can consider five tetrahedra, using those points as vertices. We present a pentagon-like formula containing the product of three volumes of those tetrahedra in its l.h.s. and the…
In this paper, we prove that if a metric measure space satisfies the volume doubling condition and the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality with same exponent n(n>1), then it has exactly n-dimensional volume growth. As application, we…
We obtain a small improvement of Gallagher's larger sieve and we extend it to higher dimensions. We also obtain two interesting upper bounds for the number of solutions to polynomial congruences.
