We give precise estimates of some holomorphically invariant infinitesimal metrics near a pseudoconcave points in a wide family of ``model'' domains for that situation in $\mathbb C^2$. This extends to metrics (rather distances) the authors'…

We prove new $L_p$ affine isoperimetric inequalities for all $ p \in [-\infty,1)$. We establish, for all $p\neq -n$, a duality formula which shows that $L_p$ affine surface area of a convex body $K$ equals $L_\frac{n^2}{p}$ affine surface…

We derive two fixed point theorems for a class of metric spaces that includes all Banach spaces and all complete Busemann spaces. We obtain our results by the use of a 1-Lipschitz barycenter construction and an existence result for…

This paper concerns the characterisation of second order marginals for random sets in a discrete setting. Under the instance of unit covariances, this problem possesses a combinatorial symmetry, exploited jointly in the companion paper to…

We investigate the size of fixed point sets of automorphisms of bounded domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$. In one complex variable, a nontrivial automorphism has at most two fixed points, but in higher dimensions fixed point sets need not be…

A subset of a convex body $B$ containing the origin in a Euclidean space is {\it parkable in $B$} if it can be translated inside $B$ in such a manner that the translate the origin. We provide characterizations of ellipsoids and of centrally…

We prove effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous forms in the S-arithmetic setting. We prove an effective result for fixed rational shifts and generic forms and we also prove a result where both the quadratic…

We adapt an argument of Tao and Vu to show that if $\lambda_1\le\cdots\le\lambda_d$ are the successive minima of an origin-symmetric convex body $K$ with respect to some lattice $\Lambda<\mathbb{R}^d$, and if we set…

Manin's conjecture predicts an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on a smooth projective variety in terms of its global geometric invariants. The strongest form of the conjecture implies certain…

We consider bounded 2-metric spaces satisfying an additional axiom, and show that a contractive mapping has either a fixed point or a fixed line.

Totally invariant divisors of endomorphisms of the projective space are expected to be always unions of linear spaces. Using logarithmic differentials we establish a lower bound for the degree of the non-normal locus of a totally invariant…

Magnitude is an isometric invariant of metric spaces inspired by category theory. Recent work has shown that the asymptotic behavior under rescaling of the magnitude of subsets of Euclidean space is closely related to intrinsic volumes.…

We present a concise proof for the supporting hyperplane theorem. We then observe that the proof not only establishes the supporting hyperplane theorem but also extends it to a hyperplane separation theorem for certain non-convex sets. The…

We show that the fundamental objects of the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory, namely the $L_p$-affine surface areas for a convex body, are closely related to information theory: they are exponentials of R\'enyi divergences of the cone measures…

A classical theorem of Fritz John allows one to describe a convex body, up to constants, as an ellipsoid. In this article we establish similar descriptions for generalized (i.e. multidimensional) arithmetic progressions in terms of proper…

We study a measure-theoretic notion of connectedness for sets of finite perimeter in the setting of doubling metric measure spaces supporting a weak $(1,1)$-Poincar\'{e} inequality. The two main results we obtain are a decomposition theorem…

We study the boundary of an affine invariant submanifold of a stratum of translation surfaces in a partial compactification consisting of all finite area Abelian differentials over nodal Riemann surfaces, modulo zero area components. The…

We consider families of geometries of D--dimensional space, described by a finite number of parameters. Starting from the De Witt metric we extract a unique integration measure which turns out to be a geometric invariant, i.e. independent…

According to the Markus conjecture, closed flat affine manifolds with parallel volume should be complete. We show it is the case for three-manifolds when the holonomy centralizes an affine transformation preserving the volume. It is notably…

We consider a generalization of the hyperplane problem to arbitrary measures in place of volume and to sections of lower dimensions. We prove this generalization for unconditional convex bodies and for duals of bodies with bounded volume…
