A finite subset $K$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is said to be lattice-convex if $K$ is the intersection of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with a convex set. The covariogram $g_K$ of $K\subseteq \mathbb{Z}^d$ is the function associating to each $u \in \integer^d$ the…
The illumination conjecture is a classical open problem in convex and discrete geometry, asserting that every compact convex body~$K$ in $\mathbb R^n$ can be illuminated by a set of no more than $2^n$ points. If $K$ has smooth boundary, it…
The Voronoi conjecture on parallelohedra claims that for every convex polytope $P$ that tiles Euclidean $d$-dimensional space with translations there exists a $d$-dimensional lattice such that $P$ and the Voronoi polytope of this lattice…
Assume $K$ is a convex body in $R^d$, and $X$ is a (large) finite subset of $K$. How many convex polytopes are there whose vertices come from $X$? What is the typical shape of such a polytope? How well the largest such polytope (which is…
We answer a question of Banakh, Jab\l{}o\'nska and Jab\l{}o\'nski by showing that for $d\ge 2$ there exists a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ such that the projection of $K$ onto each hyperplane is of non-empty interior, but $K+K$ is…
We consider the popular and classical method of alternating projections for finding a point in the intersection of two closed sets. By situating the algorithm in a metric space, equipped only with well-behaved geodesics and angles (in the…
In the paper, we investigate the following fundamental question. For a set $\mathcal{K}$ in $\mathbb{L}^0(\mathbb{P})$, when does there exist an equivalent probability measure $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\mathcal{K}$ is uniformly integrable in…
In 2011 at an Oberwolfach workshop in Discrete Geometry, V. Dol'nikov posed the following problem. Consider three non-empty families of translates of a convex compact set $K$ in the plane. Suppose that every two translates from different…
We prove the following isoperimetric-type inequality: for every convex body $K$ in $\mathbb R^n$ and some $\sigma\subset[n]:=\{1,\dots,n\}$ there exists a suitable Hanner polytope $B_K$ with the same volume as $K$ and such that the volume…
Let $K$ and $L$ be two convex bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$, with $L\subset \text{int}\, K$. In this paper we prove the following result: if every two parallel chords of $K$, supporting $L$ have the same length, then $K$ and $L$ are…
A point in the $d$-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is primitive when its coordinates are relatively prime. Two primitive points are multiples of one another when they are opposite, and for this reason, we consider half of the…
In this paper we study the $L_p$ Gauss image problem, which is a generalization of the $L_p$ Aleksandrov problem and the Gauss image problem in convex geometry. We obtain the existence result for the $L_p$ Gauss image problem in two cases…
In a classical paper [20] in 2000, Lutwak-Yang-Zhang established the $L^p$ analog of the Petty projection inequality and the $L^p$ analog of the Busemann-Petty centroid inequality. In Section 7 of [20], Lutwak-Yang-Zhang proposed the…
In this paper we study sequences of lattices which are, up to similarity, projections of $\mathbb{Z}^{n+1}$ onto a hyperplane $\bm{v}^{\perp}$, with $\bm{v} \in \mathbb{Z}^{n+1}$ and converge to a target lattice $\Lambda$ which is…
Given an integral $d \times n$ matrix $A$, the well-studied affine semigroup $\mbox{ Sg} (A)=\{ b : Ax=b, \ x \in {\mathbb Z}^n, x \geq 0\}$ can be stratified by the number of lattice points inside the parametric polyhedra $P_A(b)=\{x:…
If, for a subset S of Z^k, we compare the conditions of being parametrizable (a) by a single k-tuple of polynomials with integer coefficients, (b) by a single k-tuple of integer-valued polynomials and, (c) by finitely many k-tuples of…
In this paper, we construct two convex bodies $K$ and $L$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, such that their projections $K|H$, $L|H$ onto every subspace $H$ are congruent, but nevertheless, $K$ and $L$ do not coincide up to a translation or a…
We prove the following theorem. Let $\mu$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $\mu(K\cap H)\le \mu(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $\mu(K)\le…
We describe an algorithm for determining whether two convex polytopes P and Q, embedded in a lattice, are isomorphic with respect to a lattice automorphism. We extend this to a method for determining if P and Q are equivalent, i.e. whether…
We consider the integer point transform $\sigma _P (\mathbf{x}) = \sum _{\mathbf{m} \in P\cap \mathbb{Z}^n} \mathbf{x}^\mathbf{m} \in \mathbb C [x_1^{\pm 1},\ldots, x_n^{\pm 1}]$ of a polytope $P\subset \mathbb{R}^n$. We show that if $P$ is…
