Typically, when we are given the section (or projection) function of a convex body, it means that in each direction we know the size of the central section (or projection) perpendicular to this direction. Suppose now that we can only get…

We introduce a notion of $k$-convexity and explore polygons in the plane that have this property. Polygons which are \mbox{$k$-convex} can be triangulated with fast yet simple algorithms. However, recognizing them in general is a 3SUM-hard…

We prove that if two convex bodies $ K, L \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ satisfy the property that the orthogonal projections of $K$ and $L$ onto every plane containing the origin are roations of each other, then either $K$ and $L$ coincide or $L$…

We provide a natural generalization of a geometric conjecture of F\'{a}ry and R\'{e}dei regarding the volume of the convex hull of $K \subset {\mathbb R}^n$, and its negative image $-K$. We show that it implies Godbersen's conjecture…

Let d_{k,n} and #_{k,n} denote the dimension and the degree of the Grassmannian G_{k,n} of k-planes in projective n-space, respectively. For each k between 1 and n-2 there are 2^{d_{k,n}} \cdot #_{k,n} (a priori complex) k-planes in P^n…

Let $\Omega\Subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ be a domain with smooth boundary, $k\in\mathbb{N}$. It is shown that the integral of a holomorphic function in $L^1(\Omega)$ may be represented as the integral of this function against a smooth function…

We investigate integral representation of vector-valued function spaces, i.e., of subspaces $H\subset C(K,E)$, where $K$ is a compact space and $E$ is a (real or complex) Banach space. We point out that there are two possible ways of…

This paper is concerned with restricted families of projections in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ be a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. If $\mathcal{G}$ is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved…

We construct the Schubert basis of the torus-equivariant K-homology of the affine Grassmannian of a simple algebraic group G, using the K-theoretic NilHecke ring of Kostant and Kumar. This is the K-theoretic analogue of a construction of…

For a graph $G$ on $v(G)$ vertices let $m_k(G)$ denote the number of matchings of size $k$, and consider the partition function $M_{G}(\lambda)=\sum_{k=0}^nm_k(G)\lambda^k$. In this paper we show that if $G$ is a $d$--regular graph and…

A $(d,k)$-set is a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ containing a $k$-dimensional unit ball of all possible orientations. Using an approach of D.~Oberlin we prove various Fourier dimension estimates for compact $(d,k)$-sets. Our main interest is in…

We show that the flagged Grothendieck polynomials defined as the generating functions of flagged set-valued tableaux of Knutson-Miller-Yong can be expressed by a Jacobi-Trudi type determinant formula generalizing the work of…

Whittaker functions are special functions that arise in $p$-adic number theory and representation theory. They may be defined on representations of reductive groups as well as their metaplectic covering groups: fascinatingly, many of their…

Let $K$ be an $n$-dimensional convex body. Define the difference body by $$ K-K= \{x-y \mid x,y \in K \}. $$ We estimate the volume of the section of $K-K$ by a linear subspace $F$ via the maximal volume of sections of $K$ parallel to $F$.…

This paper concerns space-sphere point processes, that is, point processes on the product space of $\mathbb R^d$ (the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space) and $\mathbb S^k$ (the $k$-dimen\-sional sphere). We consider specific classes of models…

In this paper we will provide a new proof of the fact that for any convex body $K\subseteq\R^n$ $$ \frac{{{2n}\choose{n}}}{n^n}n\int_0^\infty r^{n-1}\vol_n(K\cap(re_n+K))dr\leq\frac{(\vol_n(K))^{n+1}}{(\vol_{n-1}(P_{e_n^\perp}(K)))^n}, $$…

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact Riemann surface and $\h_{d,k}(\Sigma)$ denote the space of degree $d\geq 1$ holomorphic maps $\Sigma\ra \CP^k$. In theoretical physics this arises as the moduli space of charge $d$ lumps (or instantons) in the…

In this paper we formulate a weighted version of minimum problem (1.4) on the sphere and we show that, for $K\le L$, if $\set{\phi_k}^K_{k=1}$ consists of the spherical functions with degree less than $N$ we can localize the points…

Let $K$ be a convex body in ${\bf R}^n$ and $B$ be the Euclidean unit ball in ${\bf R}^n$. We show that $$\mbox{lim}_{t\rightarrow 0} \frac{|K| -|K_t|}{|B| - |B_t|}= \frac{as(K)}{as(B)},$$ where $as(K)$ respectively $as(B)$ is the affine…

From any graph $G$ arises a flat space wavefunction, obtained by integrating a product of propagators associated to the vertices and edges of $G$. This function is a key ingredient in the computation of cosmological correlators, and several…
