It is well known that, in the plane, the boundary of any quadrature domain (in the classical sense) coincides with the zero set of a polynomial. We show, by explicitly constructing some four-dimensional examples, that this is not always the…
We consider a smooth Euclidean solid cone endowed with a smooth homogeneous density function used to weight Euclidean volume and hypersurface area. By assuming convexity of the cone and a curvature-dimension condition we prove that the…
We prove a conjecture of Griffiths on simultaneous normalization of all periods which asserts that the image of the lifted period map on the universal cover lies in a bounded domain in a complex Euclidean space. As an application we prove…
The set of matrix tuples with invariant subspaces whose dimensions sum up to the dimension of the space, but which do not span the whole space form an algebraic hypersurface. We found the equation of this hypersurface. This generalizes…
We establish some characterizations of elliptic hyperboloids (resp., ellipsoids) in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\Bbb E}^{n+1}$, using the $n$-dimensional area of the sections cut off by hyperplanes and the $(n+1)$-dimensional…
We study a nonlinear elliptic problem defined in a bounded domain involving fractional powers of the Laplacian operator together with a concave-convex term. We characterize completely the range of parameters for which solutions of the…
In this article we study, given a pair of integers (d,g), the problem of existence of a smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate curve in the projective n-domensional space of degree d and genus g (the Halphen-Castelnuovo Problem). We define two…
We say that a bounded domain $\Omega$ is optimal for the first positive curl eigenvalue $\mu_1(\Omega)$ if $\mu_1(\Omega)\leq \mu_1(\Omega')$ for any domain $\Omega'$ with the same volume. In spite of the fact that $\mu_1(\Omega)$ is…
We show that for any uniformly parabolic fully nonlinear second-order equation with bounded measurable "coefficients" and bounded "free" term in the whole space or in any cylindrical smooth domain with smooth boundary data one can find an…
We study the influence of geometry on semilinear elliptic equations of bistable or nonlinear-field type in unbounded domains. We discover a surprising dichotomy between epigraphs that are bounded from below and those that contain a cone of…
This article derives closed-form parametric formulas for the Minkowski sums of convex bodies in d-dimensional Euclidean space with boundaries that are smooth and have all positive sectional curvatures at every point. Under these conditions,…
There are many problems and configurations in Euclidean geometry that were never extended to the framework of (normed or) finite dimensional real Banach spaces, although their original versions are inspiring for this type of generalization,…
It is shown that a smooth n dimensional manifold with a boundary in R^n admits a Boolean representation in terms of closed half spaces defined by the tangent hyperplanes at the points on its boundary. A similar result is established for…
Our main result states that whenever we have a non-Euclidean norm $\|\cdot\|$ on a two-dimensional vector space $X$, there exists some $x\neq 0$ such that for every $\lambda\neq 1, \lambda>0$, there exist $y, z\in X$ verifying that…
We prove the existence of minimizers for functionals defined over the class of convex domains contained inside a bounded set D of R^N and with prescribed volume. Some applications are given, in particular we prove that the eigenvalues of…
In an Euclidean $d$-space, the container problem asks to pack $n$ equally sized spheres into a minimal dilate of a fixed container. If the container is a smooth convex body and $d\geq 2$ we show that solutions to the container problem can…
We show that if $Y_j\subset \mathbb{C}^{n_j}$ is a bounded strongly convex domain with $C^3$-boundary for $j=1,\dots,q$, and $X_j\subset \mathbb{C}^{m_j}$ is a bounded convex domain for $j=1,\ldots,p$, then the product domain $\prod_{j=1}^p…
We prove that spaces of Keplerian curvilinear orbits, all orbits and elliptic orbits with marked pericenter cannot carry a norm, compatible with their standard topology. We also prove that the space of Keplerian elliptic orbits without…
We use Herbrand's theorem to give a new proof that Euclid's parallel axiom is not derivable from the other axioms of first-order Euclidean geometry. Previous proofs involve constructing models of non-Euclidean geometry. This proof uses a…
In this article we construct many examples of properly convex irreducible domains divided by Zariski dense relatively hyperbolic groups in every dimension at least 3. This answers a question of Benoist. Relative hyperbolicity and non-strict…
