The celebrated upper bound theorem of McMullen determines the maximal number of extreme points of a polyhedron in terms of its dimension and the number of constraints which define it, showing that the maximum is attained by the polar of the…

We classify lattice $3$-polytopes of width larger than one and with exactly $6$ lattice points. We show that there are $74$ polytopes of width $2$, two polytopes of width $3$, and none of larger width. We give explicit coordinates for…

We prove a sharp upper bound on convex domains, in terms of the diameter alone, of the best constant in a class of weighted Poincar\'e inequalities. The key point is the study of an optimal weighted Wirtinger inequality.

We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp…

We study the smallest convex lattice generated by a finite set of points. To analyze this structure, we introduce the notion of a point configuration, defined via the relative lattice. Under a suitable completeness condition, this lattice…

Enumeration of various types of lattice polygons and in particular polyominoes is of primary importance in many machine learning, pattern recognition, and geometric analysis problems. In this work, we develop a large deviation principle for…

We generalize Ehrhart's idea of counting lattice points in dilated rational polytopes: Given a rational simplex, that is, an n-dimensional polytope with n+1 rational vertices, we use its description as the intersection of n+1 halfspaces,…

In this paper we study the bisections of a centrally symmetric planar convex body which minimize the maximum relative diameter functional. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for being a minimizing bisection, as well as analyzing…

We prove sharp upper bounds on the volume and the number of lattice points on edges of higher-dimensional reflexive simplices. These convex-geometric results are derived from new number-theoretic bounds on the denominators of unit fractions…

We extend to arbitrary finite $n$ the notion of immobilization of a convex body $O$ in $R^n$ by a finite set of points $P$ in the boundary of $O$. Because of its importance for this problem, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for…

We give an upper bound for the degree of rational curves in a family that covers a given birational ruled surface in projective space. The upper bound is stated in terms of the degree, sectional genus and arithmetic genus of the surface. We…

A closed, convex set $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with non-empty interior is called lattice-free if the interior of $K$ is disjoint with $\mathbb{Z}^2$. In this paper we study the relation between the area and the lattice width of a planar…

We show that for an integer $\ell$, there exists an acute integer lattice triangle of lattice perimeter $\ell$ such that its orthocenter is an integer lattice point, if and only if $\ell=6 $ or $\ell\ge 8$. Analogous results are obtained…
