In the course of classifying generic sparse polynomial systems which are solvable in radicals, Esterov recently showed that the volume of the Minkowski sum $P_1+\dots+P_d$ of $d$-dimensional lattice polytopes is bounded from above by a…

This paper introduces a natural definition for the volume of the unit ball in $n$-dimensional normed spaces $\mathbb{R}^n$. This definition preserves the Euclidean relation $P(B)/V(B)=n$ between the perimiter and the volume of the unit ball…

We compute the volume of the convex N^2-1 dimensional set M_N of density matrices of size N with respect to the Hilbert-Schmidt measure. The hyper--area of the boundary of this set is also found and its ratio to the volume provides an…

We establish a structure theorem for minimizing sequences for the isoperimetric problem on noncompact $\mathsf{RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathcal{H}^N)$. Under the sole (necessary) assumption that the measure of unit balls is…

The famous Minkowski inequality provides a sharp lower bound for the mixed volume $V(K,M[n-1])$ of two convex bodies $K,M\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ in terms of powers of the volumes of the individual bodies $K$ and $M$. The special case where $K$…

This paper introduces a new problem concerning additive properties of convex sets. Let $S= \{s_1 < \dots <s_n \}$ be a set of real numbers and let $D_i(S)= \{s_x-s_y: 1 \leq x-y \leq i\}$. We expect that $D_i(S)$ is large, with respect to…

Let K(X) be the collection of all non-zero finite dimensional subspaces of rational functions on an n-dimensional irreducible variety X. For any n-tuple L_1,..., L_n in K(X), we define an intersection index [L_1,..., L_n] as the number of…

In this note we present a construction which improves the best known bound on the minimal dispersion of large volume boxes in the unit cube. Let $d>1$. The dispersion of $T \subset [0,1]^d$ is defined as the supremum of the volume taken…

We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…

In this paper we study the problem of prescribing Dirichlet eigenvalues on an arbitrary compact manifold $M$ of dimension $n\geq 3$ with a non-empty smooth boundary $\partial M$. We show that for any finite increasing sequence of real…

We prove a number of results related to the size and propagation of boundary pluripolar sets, the exceptional sets for the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge--Amp\`ere equation. We extend Stout's result that peak sets on strictly…

We study a random partial covering model on the $(d-1)$-dimensional unit sphere, where $N$ spherical caps are placed independently and uniformly at random, each covering a surface fraction of $1/N$. This model provides a continuous…

For every $d\ge 3$, we construct a noncompact smooth $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with strictly positive sectional curvature without isoperimetric sets for any volume below $1$. We construct a similar example also for the relative…

We study 1-parameter families in the space $\mathscr{M}^G_1$ of $G$-invariant, unit volume metrics on a given compact, connected, almost-effective homogeneous space $M=G/H$. In particular, we focus on diverging sequences, i.e. which are not…

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under a discrete subgroup of $O(3)$ in several cases. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product in each…

Since non-compact RCD(0, N) spaces have at least linear volume growth, we study noncompact RCD(0, N) spaces with linear volume growth in this paper. One of the main results is that the diameter of level sets of a Busemann function grow at…

Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We obtain the upper bound of the harmonic mean of the first $m$ nonzero Neumann eigenvalues and Steklov eigenvalues involving the conformal volume and relative…

We prove that every complete non-compact manifold of finite volume contains a (possibly non-compact) minimal hypersurface of finite volume. The main tool is the following result of independent interest: if a region $U$ can be swept out by a…

It is a well known fact that in $\mathbb{R}^n$ a subset of minimal perimeter $L$ among all sets of a given volume is also a set of maximal volume among all sets of the same perimeter $L$. This is called the reciprocity principle for…

In this paper, we consider a certain variation of the "isoperimetric problem" adopted for subsets of nonnegative integers. More specifically, we explore the sequence P(n) as described in OEIS A186053. We provide the first exact formulas for…
