In this paper we present new versions of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality for different classes of measures and sets. We show that the inequality \[ \mu(\lambda A + (1-\lambda)B)^{1/n} \geq \lambda \mu(A)^{1/n} +…

We shall prove a convergence result relative to sequences of Minkowski symmetrals of general compact sets. In particular, we investigate the case when this process is induced by sequences of subspaces whose elements belong to a finite…

We provide a simple, general argument to obtain improvements of concentration-type inequalities starting from improvements of their corresponding isoperimetric-type inequalities. We apply this argument to obtain robust improvements of the…

The present note is a result of an on-going investigation into the logarithmic Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We obtain lower estimates on the volume product for convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ not necessarily symmetric with respect to the…

In the first part of the paper, we define an approximated Brunn-Minkowski inequality which generalizes the classical one for length spaces. Our new definition based only on distance properties allows us also to deal with discrete spaces.…

We study Minkowski supersymmetric flux vacua of type II string theory. Based on the work by M. Grana, R. Minasian, M. Petrini and A. Tomasiello, we briefly explain how to reformulate things in terms of Generalized Complex Geometry, which…

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…

\footnotesize B\"{o}r\"{o}czky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang recently conjectured a certain strengthening of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for symmetric convex bodies, the so-called log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We establish this inequality…

The Minkowski functionals are a mathematical tool to quantify morphological features of patterns. Some applications to the matter distribution in galaxy catalogues and N-body simulations are reviewed, with an emphasis on the effects of…

Elementary proofs of sharp isoperimetric inequalities on a normed space $(\mathbb{R}^n,||\cdot||)$ equipped with a measure $\mu = w(x) dx$ so that $w^p$ is homogeneous are provided, along with a characterization of the corresponding…

We study approximations of polytopes in the standard model for computing polytopes using Minkowski sums and (convex hulls of) unions. Specifically, we study the ability to approximate a target polytope by polytopes of a given depth. Our…

In this paper we review the known facts on isometries of Minkowski geometries and prove some new results on them. We give the normal forms of two special classes of operators and also characterize the isometry group of Minkowski $3$-spaces…

We investigate the validity and the stability of various Minkowski-like inequalities for $C^1$-perturbations of the ball. Let $K\subseteq\mathbb R^n$ be a domain (possibly not convex and not mean-convex) which is $C^1$-close to a ball. We…

We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp…

A pair of subsets of Euclidean space which nearly achieves equality in the Brunn-Minkowski inequality must nearly coincide with a pair of homothetic convex sets. The two-dimensional case was treated in a previous paper in this series by an…
