K. Adaricheva and M. Bolat have recently proved that if $U_0$ and $U_1$ are circles in a triangle with vertices $A_0,A_1,A_2$, then there exist $j\in \{0,1,2\}$ and $k\in\{0,1\}$ such that $U_{1-k}$ is included in the convex hull of…

Let us have in S^2, R^2 or H^2 a pair of convex bodies, for S^2 different from S^2, such that the intersections of any congruent copies of them are centrally symmetric. Then our bodies are congruent circles. If the intersections of any…

Given a convex body $K\subset \mathbb R^2$ we say that a circle $\Omega\subset \text{int} \ K$ is an equipotential circle if every tangent line of $\Omega$ cuts a chord $AB$ in $K$ such that for the contact point $P=\Omega\cap AB$ it holds…

Generalizing results by Valette, Zamfirescu and Laczkovich, we will prove that a convex body $K$ is a polytope if there are sufficiently many tilings which contain a tile similar to $K$. Furthermore, we give an example that this can not be…

We prove that if $A_0$ and $A_1$ are compact convex sets contained in a convex $n$-gon with vertices $g_1, \dots, g_n$, and $n$ is strictly greater than the number of common supporting lines of $A_0$ and $A_1$, then there exist $i \in…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to the sphere and the hyperbolic…

In this work we present a theorem regarding two convex bodies $K_1, K_2\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq 3$, and two families of sections of them, given by two families of tangent planes of two spheres $S_i\subset \textrm{int}\textrm{ } K_i$,…

The generalized circumradius of a set of points $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ with respect to a convex body $K$ equals the minimum value of $\lambda \geq 0$ such that $A$ is contained in a translate of $\lambda K$. Each choice of $K$ gives a…

In this work we prove that if for a pair of convex bodies $K_1, K_2 \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$, there exists a hyperplane $H$ and two distinct points $p_1$ and $p_2$ in $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus H$ such that for every $(n-2)$-plane $M…

If K' and K are convex bodies of the plane such that K' is a subset of K then the perimeter of K' is not greater than the perimeter of K. We obtain the following generalization of this fact. Let K be a convex compact body of the plane with…

Let $K_0$ be a compact convex subset of the plane $\mathbb R^2$, and assume that whenever $K_1\subseteq \mathbb R^2$ is congruent to $K_0$, then $K_0$ and $K_1$ are not crossing in a natural sense due to L. Fejes-T\'oth. A theorem of L.…

Convex geometries are closure systems satisfying the anti-exchange axiom. Every finite convex geometry can be embedded into a convex geometry of finitely many points in an n-dimensional space equipped with a convex hull operator, by the…

Quadrilaterals in the complex plane play a significant part in the theory of planar quasiconformal mappings. Motivated by the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we prove that every quadrilateral with modulus in an interval $[1/K,…

Let $K_1, K_2$ be two compact convex sets in $\mathit{C}$. Their Minkowski product is the set $K_1K_2 = \{ab: a \in K_1, b\in K_2\}$. We show that the set $K_1K_2$ is star-shaped if $K_1$ is a line segment or a circular disk. Examples for…

Surfaces with concentric $K$-contours and parallel $K$-contours in Euclidean $3$-space are defined. Crucial examples are presented and characterization of them are given.

We introduce a notion of $k$-convexity and explore polygons in the plane that have this property. Polygons which are \mbox{$k$-convex} can be triangulated with fast yet simple algorithms. However, recognizing them in general is a 3SUM-hard…

The convex shape contained in a disk having prescribed area and maximal perimeter is completely characterized in terms of the area fraction. The solution is always a polygon having all but one sides equal. The lengths of the sides are…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to spherical and hyperbolic planes.…

Let $C\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex body. We introduce two notions of convexity associated to C. A set $K$ is $C$-ball convex if it is the intersection of translates of $C$, or it is either $\emptyset$, or ${\mathbb R}^n$. The $C$-ball…
