For compact subsets $E$ of the unit disk $ \mathbb{D}$ we study the capacity of the condenser ${\rm cap}( \mathbb{D},E)$ by means of set functionals defined in terms of hyperbolic geometry. In particular, we study experimentally the case of…

The inaccessibility of a point p in a bounded domain D \subset R^n is the minimum of the lengths of segments through p with boundary at \bd D. The points of maximum inaccessibility I_D are those where the inaccessibility achieves its…

We obtain some sharp estimates for the $p$-torsion of convex planar domains in terms of their area, perimeter, and inradius. The approach we adopt relies on the use of web functions (i.e. functions depending only on the distance from the…

What is the shape of the 2D convex region P from which, when 2 mutually congruent convex pieces with maximum possible area are cut out, the highest fraction of the area of P is left over? When P is restricted to the set of all possible…

A planar point set is in convex position precisely when it has a convex polygonization, that is, a polygonization with maximum interior angle measure at most \pi. We can thus talk about the convexity of a set of points in terms of the…

This article investigates the numerical approximation of shape optimization problems with PDE constraint on classes of convex domains. The convexity constraint provides a compactness property which implies well posedness of the problem.…

We are interested in the optimization of convex domains under a PDE constraint. Due to the difficulties of approximating convex domains in $\mathbb{R}^3$, the restriction to rotationally symmetric domains is used to reduce shape…

Consider a 2-plane $P \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ and let $D$ be a bounded region in $P$ with a piecewise-smooth boundary. Let $I(D)$ be the infimum of areas of all piecewise-smooth isotropic surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with the same boundary as…

Let n points be placed on a closed convex domain on the plane, no three points on a straight line. A conjecture by H. A. Heilbronn (before 1950) stated that on the convex domain of unit area the smallest triangle defined by these points has…

Let $Q$ be a finite set of points in the plane. For any set $P$ of points in the plane, $S_{Q}(P)$ denotes the number of similar copies of $Q$ contained in $P$. For a fixed $n$, Erd\H{o}s and Purdy asked to determine the maximum possible…

We describe a randomized algorithm that, given a set $P$ of points in the plane, computes the best location to insert a new point $p$, such that the Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup\{p\}$ has the largest possible minimum angle. The expected…

The cevian triangle corresponding to an interior point $M$ of a triangle is the triangle determined by the feet of the three cevians concurrent at $M$. It is known that the area of the cevian triangle for an interior point $M$ of a triangle…

We consider the problem of optimizing the product of the distances from a given point in a triangle to each vertex. There are two possible cases in general. For isosceles triangles, we explicitly show exactly when both cases occur.

Lower bounds estimates are proved for the first eigenvalue for the Dirichlet Laplacian on arbitrary triangles using various symmetrization techniques. These results can viewed as a generalization of P\'olya's isoperimetric bounds. It is…

Let $C_{\theta}$ be a circular cone in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{3}$,which apex is the origin and apex angle of the cone is $\theta\in \left(\pi/3, \pi\right)$. Let $M_\theta$ be the class of compact convex domains in Euclidean space…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is…

In this paper we give a geometric argument for bounding the diameter of a connected compact surface (with boundary) of arbitrary codimension in Euclidean space in terms of Topping's diameter bound for closed surfaces (without boundary). The…

We prove that the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a triangle in the plane is bounded above by $\pi^2 L^2\over 9A^2$, where $L$ is the perimeter and $A$ is the area of this triangle. We show that the \mbox{constant 9} is…

The study deals with the theory of interior capacities of condensers in a locally compact space, a condenser being treated here as a countable, locally finite collection of arbitrary sets with the sign +1 or -1 prescribed such that the…
