An affine version of the linear subspace concentration inequality as proposed by Wu is established for centered convex bodies. This generalizes results from Wu and Freyer, Henk, Kipp on polytopes to convex bodies.
In this paper, we study the symmetry properties of nondegenerate critical points of shape functionals using the implicit function theorem. We show that, if a shape functional is invariant with respect to some continuous group of rotations,…
We consider the Suslov problem of nonholonomic rigid body motion with inhomogeneous constraints. We show that if the direction along which the Suslov constraint is enforced is perpendicular to a principal axis of inertia of the body, then…
In our paper arXiv:1310.6289, we stated that acylindrical hyperbolicity of a group is invariant under commensurability up to finite kernels. Unfortunately, the proof of this fact contained a gap. The goal of this erratum is to point out the…
A complete classification of all zonal, continuous, and translation invariant valuations on convex bodies is established. The valuations obtained are expressed as principal value integrals with respect to the area measures. The convergence…
We prove that several invariants of a possibly singular complex affine or projective variety of degree $d$ in the affine space $\mathbb{A}^{n}$, or $\mathbb{P}^n$, are bounded by a function of $d$ alone, provided $b_{1}=0$ for a resolution…
We prove asymptotic formulas for the number of rational points of bounded height on smooth equivariant compactifications of the affine space. (Nous \'etablissons un d\'eveloppement asymptotique du nombre de points rationnels de hauteur…
This paper is devoted to two geometric constructions related to the isomonodromic method. We follow the Drinfeld ideas and develop them in the case of the curve $X=\mathbb{P}^1\setminus\{a_1,...,a_n\}$. Thus we generalize the results of…
It is shown that the canonical formulation of the abelian BF theory in D = 3 allows to obtain topological invariants associated to curves and points in the plane. The method consists on finding the Hamiltonian on-shell of the theory coupled…
Many trace inequalities can be expressed either as concavity/convexity theorems or as monotonicity theorems. A classic example is the joint convexity of the quantum relative entropy which is equivalent to the Data Processing Inequality. The…
The standard convex closed hull of a set is defined as the intersection of all images, under the action of a group of rigid motions, of a half-space containing the given set. In this paper we propose a generalisation of this classical…
In this paper, for a smooth variety equiped with an action of a connected algebraic group (not necessary linear), we introduce the notion of invariant Brauer sub-group and the notion of invariant \'etale Brauer-Manin obstruction. Then we…
We prove that the existence of a positively defined, invariant Einstein metric $m$ on a connected homogeneous space $G/H$ of a compact Lie group $G$ is the consequence of non-contractibility of some compact set $C=X_{G,H}^{\Sigma}$ (B\"ohm…
Using equivariant obstruction theory we construct equivariant maps from certain classifying spaces to representation spheres for cyclic groups, product of elementary Abelian groups and dihedral groups. Restricting them to finite skeleta…
Brauer and Fowler noted restrictions on the structure of a finite group G in terms of the order of the centralizer of an involution t in G. We consider variants of these themes. We first note that for an arbitrary finite group G of even…
In a work by Artstein-Avidan and Milman the concept of polarity is generalized from the class of convex bodies to the larger class of convex functions. While the only self-polar convex body is the Euclidean ball, it turns out that there are…
The equichordal point problem is a classical question in geometry, asking whether there exist multiple equichordal points within a single convex body. An equichordal point is defined as a point through which all chords of the convex body…
We exhibit invariants of smooth projective algebraic varieties with integer values, whose nonvanishing modulo p prevents the existence of an action without fixed points of certain finite p-groups. The case of base fields of characteristic p…
We undertake a systematic study of irreducible affine isometric actions of locally compact groups on Hilbert spaces. It turns out that, while that are a few parallels of this study to the by now classical theory of irreducible unitary…
The Shapley-Folkman theorem shows that Minkowski averages of uniformly bounded sets tend to be convex when the number of terms in the sum becomes much larger than the ambient dimension. In optimization, Aubin and Ekeland [1976] show that…
