Certain excess versions of the Minkowski and H\"older inequalities are given. These new results generalize and improve the Minkowski and H\"older inequalities.

In this paper we investigate some strong convergence theorems for partial sums with respect to Vilenkin system.

We resolve a conjecture of Kalai relating approximation theory of convex bodies by simplicial polytopes to the face numbers and primitive Betti numbers of these polytopes and their toric varieties. The proof uses higher notions of…

In analogy to the topological entropy for continuous endomorphisms of totally disconnected locally compact groups, we introduce a notion of topological entropy for continuous endomorphisms of locally linearly compact vector spaces. We study…

Toric codes are evaluation codes obtained from an integral convex polytope $P \subset \R^n$ and finite field $\F_q$. They are, in a sense, a natural extension of Reed-Solomon codes, and have been studied recently by J. Hansen and D. Joyner.…

We give a short proof of a conjecture of Stipsicz on the minimality of fiber sums of Lefschetz fibrations, which was proved earlier by Usher. We then construct the first examples of genus g > 1 Lefschetz fibrations on minimal symplectic…

We show that there exist convex $n$-gons $P$ and $Q$ such that the largest convex polygon in the Minkowski sum $P+Q$ has size $\Theta(n\log n)$. This matches an upper bound of Tiwary.

In this short note we derive, for bounded domains, an upper bound for a Friedrichs type constant in a weighted Friedrichs type inequality. This upper bound generalizes a well known upper bound of the Friedrichs constant. This upper bound is…

Minkowski sums cover a wide range of applications in many different fields like algebra, morphing, robotics, mechanical CAD/CAM systems ... This paper deals with sums of polytopes in a n dimensional space provided that both H-representation…

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of solutions to the discrete Lp Minkowski problem for the critical case where 0 < p < 1.

In this paper, we give a comparison version of Pythagorean Theorem to judge the lower or upper bound of the curvature of Alexandrov spaces (including Riemannian manifolds).

The class of convex sets that admit approximations as Minkowski sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone in the Hausdorff distance is introduced. These sets are called approximately Motzkin-decomposable and generalize the notion…

A remarkable and important property of face numbers of simplicial polytopes is the generalized lower bound inequality, which says that the $h$-numbers of any simplicial polytope are unimodal. Recently, for balanced simplicial $d$-polytopes,…

We prove a Noether--Lefschetz-type result for certain linear systems on a projective threefold with isolated singularities.

We describe a new relation between the topology of hyperplane arrangements, Milnor fibers and global polar curves, via the affine Lefschetz theory developped by A. N\'emethi. In particular, we improve some results due to Orlik and Terao…

A Lefschetz module is a module over a graded algebra $A$ that satisfies analogues of Poincar\'{e} duality, the Hard Lefschetz property, and the Hodge--Riemann relations with respect to an open convex cone $\mathscr{K}$ in the degree one…

This is an appendix to our paper "An update of the Hirsch Conjecture" (arXiv:0907.1186), containing proofs of some of the results and comments that were omitted in it.

We introduce two novel complementary notions of the Lefschetz number for a functor from a finite acyclic category to itself and we prove a Lefschetz fixed-object theorem and a Lefschetz fixed-morphism theorem. In order to do so, we use the…

In this paper we prove new lower bounds for the minimum distance of a toric surface code defined by a convex lattice polygon P. The bounds involve a geometric invariant L(P), called the full Minkowski length of P which can be easily…

In this note, we study B{\'e}zout type inequalities for mixed volume and Minkowski sum of convex bodies in R n. We first give a new proof and we extend inequalities of Jian Xiao on mixed discriminants. Then, we use mass transport method to…
