In this paper, we construct two convex bodies $K$ and $L$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, such that their projections $K|H$, $L|H$ onto every subspace $H$ are congruent, but nevertheless, $K$ and $L$ do not coincide up to a translation or a…

We prove that if two convex bodies $ K, L \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ satisfy the property that the orthogonal projections of $K$ and $L$ onto every plane containing the origin are roations of each other, then either $K$ and $L$ coincide or $L$…

We construct examples of two convex bodies $K,L$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, such that every projection of $K$ onto a $(n-1)$-dimensional subspace can be rotated to be contained in the corresponding projection of $L$, but $K$ itself cannot be…

We study the volume ratio between projections of two convex bodies. Given a high-dimensional convex body $K$ we show that there is another convex body $L$ such that the volume ratio between any two projections of fixed rank of the bodies…

For a convex body $K\subset\R^n$ and $i\in\{1,...,n-1\}$, the function assigning to any $i$-dimensional subspace $L$ of $\R^n$, the $i$-dimensional volume of the orthogonal projection of $K$ to $L$, is called the $i$-th projection function…

Let $2\le k\le d-1$ and let $P$ and $Q$ be two convex polytopes in ${\mathbb E^d}$. Assume that their projections, $P|H$, $Q|H$, onto every $k$-dimensional subspace $H$, are congruent. In this paper we show that $P$ and $Q$ or $P$ and $-Q$…

In this work we prove the following result: Let $K$ be a strictly convex body in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n, n\geq 3$, and let $L$ be a hypersurface, which is the image of an embedding of the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, such that $K$…

Let $K$ and $L$ be two convex bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 2$, with $L\subset \text{int}\, K$. We say that $L$ is an equichordal body for $K$ if every chord of $K$ tangent to $L$ has length equal to a given fixed value $\lambda$. J.…
