Every convex body K in R^n has a coordinate projection PK that contains at least vol(0.1 K) cells of the integer lattice PZ^n, provided this volume is at least one. Our proof of this counterpart of Minkowski's theorem is based on an…
The projector onto the Minkowski sum of closed convex sets is generally not equal to the sum of individual projectors. In this work, we provide a complete answer to the question of characterizing the instances where such an equality holds.…
We survey elementary results in Minkowski spaces (i.e. finite dimensional Banach spaces) that deserve to be collected together, and give simple proofs for some of them. We place special emphasis on planar results. Many of these results have…
It is easy to show that the lower and the upper box dimensions of a bounded set in Euclidean space are invariant with respect to the ambient space. In this article we show that the Minkowski content of a Minkowski measurable set is also…
We propose to derive deviation measures through the Minkowski gauge of a given set of acceptable positions. We show that, given a suitable acceptance set, any positive homogeneous deviation measure can be accommodated in our framework. In…
In planar slow-fast systems, fractal analysis of (bounded) sequences in $\mathbb R$ has proved important for detection of the first non-zero Lyapunov quantity in singular Hopf bifurcations, determination of the maximum number of limit…
We investigate the behavior of small subsets of causal sets that approximate Minkowski space in three, four, and five dimensions, and show that their effective dimension decreases smoothly at small distances. The details of the short…
To the families of geometric measures of convex bodies (the area measures of Aleksandrov-Fenchel-Jessen, the curvature measures of Federer, and the recently discovered dual curvature measures) a new family is added. The new family of…
The Brunn-Minkowski theory in convex geometry concerns, among other things, the volumes, mixed volumes, and surface area measures of convex bodies. We study generalizations of these concepts to Borel measures with density in…
In this paper we consider Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least $3$, with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean Volume Growth. For every open bounded subset with smooth boundary we establish the validity of an optimal Minkowski…
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…
In $\mathbb{R}^n$, we establish an asymptotically sharp upper bound for the upper Minkowski dimension of $k$-porous sets having holes of certain size near every point in $k$ orthogonal directions at all small scales. This bound tends to…
We investigate Minkowski additive, continuous, and translation invariant operators $\Phi:\mathcal{K}^n\to\mathcal{K}^n$ defined on the family of convex bodies such that the volume of the image $\Phi(K)$ is bounded from above and below by…
We prove that, in Minkowski space, if a spacelike, $(n-1)$-convex hypersurface $M$ with constant $\sigma_{n-1}$ curvature has bounded principal curvatures, then $M$ is convex. Moreover, if $M$ is not strictly convex, after an…
Let us define, for a compact set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, the Minkowski averages of $A$: $$ A(k) = \left\{\frac{a_1+\cdots +a_k}{k} : a_1, \ldots, a_k\in A\right\}=\frac{1}{k}\Big(\underset{k\ {\rm times}}{\underbrace{A + \cdots +…
\emph{Minkowski rings} are certain rings of simple functions on the Euclidean space $W = {\mathbb{R}}^d$ with multiplicative structure derived from Minkowski addition of convex polytopes. When the ring is (finitely) generated by a set…
This paper considers the radii functionals (circumradius, inradius, and diameter) as well as the Minkowski asymmetry for general (possibly non-symmetric) gauge bodies. A generalization of the concentricity inequality (which states that the…
A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ vertices are not known when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we construct a family of convex small $n$-gons, $n=2^s$…
This paper introduces a new subtraction operation for convex sets, which defines their difference as a collection of inclusion-minimal convex sets with appropriate definitions of linear operations on them. With these operations the set of…
The concept of a Minkowski arrangement was introduced by Fejes T\'oth in 1965 as a family of centrally symmetric convex bodies with the property that no member of the family contains the center of any other member in its interior. This…
