We study the asymptotic behavior of the volume preserving mean curvature and the Mullins-Sekerka flat flow in three dimensional space. Motivated by this we establish a 3D sharp quantitative version of the Alexandrov inequality for…
The Alexandrov--Fenchel inequality bounds from below the square of the mixed volume $V(K_1,K_2,K_3,\ldots,K_n)$ of convex bodies $K_1,\ldots,K_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by the product of the mixed volumes $V(K_1,K_1,K_3,\ldots,K_n)$ and…
In this note, we estimate the upper bound of volume of closed positively or nonnegatively curved Alexandrov space $X$ with strictly convex boundary. We also discuss the equality case. In particular, the Boundary Conjecture holds when the…
The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr.~on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose…
We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…
Our main contribution is a concentration inequality for the symmetric volume difference of a $ C^2 $ convex body with positive Gaussian curvature and a circumscribed random polytope with a restricted number of facets, for any probability…
The Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality, a far-reaching generalization of the classical isoperimetric inequality to arbitrary mixed volumes, lies at the heart of convex geometry. The characterization of its extremal bodies is a long-standing open…
We define regular points of an extremal subset in an Alexandrov space and study their basic properties. We show that a neighborhood of a regular point in an extremal subset is almost isometric to an open subset in Euclidean space and that…
In this paper we prove the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture for the case of large radii. Namely, if a finite number of points in Euclidean space $E^n$ is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of points does not decrease, then there…
In this paper, we derive new sharp weighted Alexandrov-Fenchel and Minkowski inequalities for smooth, closed hypersurfaces under various convexity assumptions in Euclidean, spherical, and hyperbolic spaces. These inequalities extend…
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 +…
One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…
We study inequalities on the volume of Minkowski sum in the class of anti-blocking bodies. We prove analogues of Pl\"unnecke-Ruzsa type inequality and V. Milman inequality on the concavity of the ratio of volumes of bodies and their…
At the heart of convex geometry lies the observation that the volume of convex bodies behaves as a polynomial. Many geometric inequalities may be expressed in terms of the coefficients of this polynomial, called mixed volumes. Among the…
For any closed smooth Riemannian manifold H. Weyl has defined a sequence of numbers called today intrinsic volumes. They include volume, Euler characteristic, and integral of the scalar curvature. We conjecture that absolute values of all…
Large deviation estimates are by now a standard tool inthe Asymptotic Convex Geometry, contrary to small deviationresults. In this note we present a novel application of a smalldeviations inequality to a problem related to the diameters of…
We present a short proof of the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities for mixed volumes of convex bodies.
We introduce a new geometric invariant called the obtuse constant of spaces with curvature bounded below. We first find relations between this invariant and the normalized volume. We also discuss the case of maximal obtuse constant equal to…
The famous Minkowski inequality provides a sharp lower bound for the mixed volume $V(K,M[n-1])$ of two convex bodies $K,M\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ in terms of powers of the volumes of the individual bodies $K$ and $M$. The special case where $K$…
We prove that Alexandrov's conjecture relating the area and diameter of a convex surface holds for the surface of a general ellipsoid. This is a direct consequence of a more general result which estimates the deviation from the optimal…
