We study the isoperimetric problem for anisotropic left-invariant perimeter measures on $\mathbb R^3$, endowed with the Heisenberg group structure. The perimeter is associated with a left-invariant norm $\phi$ on the horizontal…

We prove a monotonicity formula for minimal or almost minimal sets for the Hausdorff measure $\cal{H}^d$, subject to a sliding boundary constraint where competitors for $E$ are obtained by deforming $E$ by a one-parameter family of…

For positive integers $n, d$, consider the hypergrid $[n]^d$ with the coordinate-wise product partial ordering denoted by $\prec$. A function $f: [n]^d \mapsto \mathbb{N}$ is monotone if $\forall x \prec y$, $f(x) \leq f(y)$. A function $f$…

We construct new examples of complete Einstein metrics on balls. At each point of the boundary at infinity, the metric is asymptotic to a homogeneous Einstein metric on a solvable group, which varies with the point at infinity.

We provide a sharp lower bound for the perimeter of the inner parallel sets of a convex body $\Omega$. The bound depends only on the perimeter and inradius $r$ of the original body and states that \[|\partial\Omega_t| \geq…

We consider the inverse problem of determining, the possibly anisotropic, conductivity of a body by means of the so called local Neumann to Dirichlet map on a curved portion $\Sigma$ of the boundary. Motivated by the uniqueness result for…

Let $I_{\nu}(x)$ and $K_{\nu}(x)$ be the first and second kind modified Bessel functions. It is shown that the nullclines of the Riccati equation satisfied by $x^{\alpha} \Phi_{i,\nu}(x)$, $i=1,2$, with…

The goal of this paper is to establish a monotonicity formula for perimeter minimizing sets in RCD(0,N) metric measure cones, together with the associated rigidity statement. The applications include sharp Hausdorff dimension estimates for…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a real open interval $I$ is called $\Phi$-monotone if, for all $x,y\in I$ with $x\leq y$ it satisfies $$ f(x)\leq f(y)+\Phi(y-x), $$ where $\Phi:[0,\ell(I)[\,\to\mathbb{R}_+$ is a given nonnegative…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of 1-parameter subgroups with respect to Hofer's metric when the underlying symplectic manifold is an open surface of infinite area. We prove that, depending on the topology of the level sets of the…

Let $P_1,\dots, P_n$ and $Q_1,\dots, Q_n$ be convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $P_i\subset Q_i$. It is well-known that the mixed volume has the monotonicity property: $V(P_1,\dots,P_n)\leq V(Q_1,\dots,Q_n)$. We give two criteria…

We obtain a sharp lower bound on the isoperimetric deficit of a general polygon in terms of the variance of its side lengths, the variance of its radii, and its deviation from being convex. Our technique involves a functional minimization…

Let $C\subset \mathbb{S}^2$ be a spherical convex body of constant width $\tau$. It is known that (i) if $\tau<\pi/2$ then for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a spherical convex body $C_\varepsilon$ of constant width $\tau$ whose boundary…

We prove that a region in a two-dimensional affine subspace of a normed space $V$ has the least 2-dimensional Hausdorff measure among all compact surfaces with the same boundary. Furthermore, the 2-dimensional Hausdorff area density admits…

For a two-dimensional convex body, the Kovner-Besicovitch measure of symmetry is defined as the volume ratio of the largest centrally symmetric body contained inside the body to the original body. A classical result states that the…

We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

Given a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with the barycenter at the origin we consider the corresponding K{\"a}hler-Einstein equation $e^{-\Phi} = \det D^2 \Phi$. If $K$ is a simplex, then the Ricci tensor of the Hessian metric $D^2…

We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite…

It is shown that for any sufficiently regular even Minkowski valuation $\Phi$ which is homogeneous and intertwines rigid motions, and for any convex body $K$ in a smooth neighborhood of the unit ball, there exists a sequence of positive…

For all $n,\phi\in \mathbb{N}$ with $\phi\geqslant n+1$, the smallest possible isoperimetric quotient of an $n$-dimensional convex polytope that has $\phi$ facets is shown to be bounded from above and from below by positive universal…
