We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite…

Upper bounds are obtained for the Newtonian capacity of compact sets in $\R^d,\,d\ge 3$ in terms of the perimeter of the $r$-parallel neighbourhood of $K$. For compact, convex sets in $\R^d,\,d\ge 3$ with a $C^2$ boundary the Newtonian…

We study tight projective 2-designs in three different settings. In the complex setting, Zauner's conjecture predicts the existence of a tight projective 2-design in every dimension. Pandey, Paulsen, Prakash, and Rahaman recently proposed…

Let $P\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ $(n\geq 3)$ be a convex polytope containing the origin in its interior. Let $\mbox{vol}_{n-2} \big( \mbox{relbd} ( P\cap\lbrace t\xi + \xi^\perp \rbrace ) \big)$ denote the $(n-2)$-dimensional volume of the…

We show that there exist hyperbolic knots in the 3-sphere such that the set of points of large injectivity radius in the complement take up the bulk of the volume. More precisely, given a finite volume hyperbolic manifold, for any bound R>0…

It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be…

In this work we prove the following: let $K$ be a convex body in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, contained in the interior of the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and let $p\in \mathbb{R}^n$ be a point such that, from each point…

The intrinsic volumes of a convex body are fundamental invariants that capture information about the average volume of the projection of the convex body onto a random subspace of fixed dimension. The intrinsic volumes also play a central…

Using the concepts of mixed volumes and quermassintegrals of convex geometry, we derive an exact formula for the exclusion volume for a general convex body that applies in any space dimension, including both the rotationally-averaged…

It is shown that the volume entropy of a Hilbert geometry associated to an $n$-dimensional convex body of class $C^{1,1}$ equals $n-1$. To achieve this result, a new projective invariant of convex bodies, similar to the centro-affine area,…

We prove entropy rigidity for finite volume strictly convex projective manifolds in dimensions $\geq 3$, generalizing the work of arXiv:1708.03983 to the finite volume setting. The rigidity theorem uses the techniques of Besson, Courtois,…

In 1969, Vic Klee asked whether a convex body is uniquely determined (up to translation and reflection in the origin) by its inner section function, the function giving for each direction the maximal area of sections of the body by…

Two different constructions of an invariant of an odd dimensional hyperbolic manifold in the K-group $K_{2n-1}(\bar \Bbb Q)\otimes \Bbb Q$ are given. The volume of the manifold is equal to the value of the Borel regulator on that element.…

Using $\delta$-invariants and Newton--Okounkov bodies, we derive the optimal volume upper bound for K\"ahler manifolds with positive Ricci curvature, from which we get a new characterization of the complex projective space.

We study a class of semialgebraic convex bodies called discotopes. These are instances of zonoids, objects of interest in real algebraic geometry and random geometry. We focus on the face structure and on the boundary hypersurface of…

We renormalize the Chern-Simons invariant for convex-cocompact hyperbolic 3-manifolds by finding the asymptotics along an equidistance foliation. We prove that the metric Chern-Simons invariant has an exponentially divergent term given by…

For compact Riemannian manifolds with convex boundary, B.White proved the following alternative: Either there is an isoperimetric inequality for minimal hypersurfaces or there exists a closed minimal hypersurface, possibly with a small…

For every integer $k\geq 2$ and every $R>1$ one can find a dimension $n$ and construct a symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\text{diam}\,Q_{k-1}(K)\geq R\cdot\text{diam}\,Q_k(K)$, where $Q_k(K)$ denotes the $k$-convex hull…

Consider a closed connected hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with constant signature (k,l) of the second quadratic form, and approaching a quadratic cone at infinity. This hypersurface divides $\mathbb{R}^n$ into two pieces. We prove that one…

We provide an affirmative answer to a variant of the Busemann-Petty problem, proposed by V.~Milman: Let $K$ be a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and let $D$ be a compact subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$ such that, for some $1\ls k\ls n-1$,…
