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 $K\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex body and let $p$ in the interior of $ K$, $n \geq 3$. The point $p$ is said to be a \textit{Larman point} of $K$ if, for every hyperplane $\Pi$ passing through $p$, the section $\Pi\cap K$ has a…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with Santal\'o point at 0\. We show that if $K$ has a point on the boundary with positive generalized Gau{\ss} curvature, then the volume product $|K| |K^\circ|$ is not minimal. This means that a…

It is proved that if $u_1,\ldots, u_n$ are vectors in ${\Bbb R}^k, k\le n, 1 \le p < \infty$ and $$r = ({1\over k} \sum ^n_1 |u_i|^p)^{1\over p}$$ then the volume of the symmetric convex body whose boundary functionals are $\pm u_1,\ldots,…
