An infinitely smooth convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ is called polynomially integrable of degree $N$ if its parallel section functions are polynomials of degree $N$. We prove that the only smooth convex bodies with this property in odd…

A bounded domain $K \subset \mathbb R^n$ is called polynomially integrable if the $(n-1)$-dimensional volume of the intersection $K$ with a hyperplane $\Pi$ polynomially depends on the distance from $\Pi$ to the origin. It was proved in [7]…

The section volume function $A_K(\xi,t), \ \xi \in \mathbb R^n, \ t \in \mathbb R,$ of a body $K \subset \mathbb R^n$ evaluates the $(n-1)$-dimensional volume of the cross-section $K$ by the hyperplane $\{ x \cdot \xi=t \}.$ We are…

A question related to some conjectures of Lutwak about the affine quermassintegrals of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$ asks whether for every convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and all $1\leqslant k\leqslant n$ $$\Phi_{[k]}(K):={\rm…

For any $I\subset\mathbb{R}$ finite with $0\in I$, we provide a characterization of those tuples $(\omega_i)_{i\in I}$ of positive numbers which are dual querma\ss integrals of two star bodies. It turns out that this problem is related to…

Let $K$ be a compact convex body in $\mathbb R^n.$ For any affine line $L,$ denote $\widehat{\chi}_K(L)=\int_{L}\chi_K(x)dl(x),$ where $dl$ is the arc length measure, the $X$-ray transform of the characteristic function $\chi_K,$ i.e., the…

An infinitely smooth symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ is called $k$-separably integrable, $1\leq k<d$, if its $k$-dimensional isotropic volume function $V_{K,H}(t)=\mathcal H^d(\{\boldsymbol x\in K:\mathrm{dist}(\boldsymbol…

We prove that the partial-dual genus polynomial considered as a function on chord diagrams satisfies the four-term relation. Thus it is a weight system from the theory of Vassiliev knot invariants.

The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomial associated with a compact set $K$ consisting of a finite number of continua in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case…

We analyze aspects of the behavior of the family of inner parallel bodies of a convex body for the isoperimetric quotient and deficit of arbitrary quermassintegrals. By means of technical boundary properties of the so-called form body of a…

Let D be a domain with quotient field K and A a D-algebra. We call a polynomial with coefficients in K that maps every element of A to an element of A "integer-valued on A". For commutative A we also consider integer-valued polynomials in…

A polynomial with coefficients in the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{K}$ of a global field $K$ is called intersective if it has a root modulo every finite-indexed subgroup of $\mathcal{O}_{K}$. We prove two criteria for a polynomial…

We explore the interplay between algebraic combinatorics and algorithmic problems in graph theory by defining a polynomial with connections to correspondence colouring (also known as DP-colouring), a recent generalization of list-colouring,…

Given an integral domain $D$ with quotient field $K$, the ring of integer-valued polynomials on D is the subring $\{f (X) \in K[X]: f(D) \subset D\}$ of the polynomial ring $K[X]$. Using the related tools of $t$-closure and associated…

Let $K$ be an algebrically closed field and let $n\geq 1$. If $P\in K[X]=K[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$, $P\neq 0$, we denote by $I(P)$ the support of $P$, which is the finite subset of $\mathbb N^n$ such that $P=\sum_{i\in I(P)}a_iX^i$ with $a_i\in…

In this paper we discuss a couple of observations related to polynomial convexity. More precisely, (i) We observe that the union of finitely many disjoint closed balls with centres in $\cup_{\theta\in[0,\pi/2]}e^{i\theta}V$ is polynomially…

Given a chiral d-polytope K with regular facets, we describe a construction for a chiral (d + 1)-polytope P with facets isomorphic to K. Furthermore, P is finite whenever K is finite. We provide explicit examples of chiral 4-polytopes…

A polytope is integral if all of its vertices are lattice points. The constant term of the Ehrhart polynomial of an integral polytope is known to be 1. In previous work, we showed that the coefficients of the Ehrhart polynomial of a…

Let T be the unit circle in the complex plane C. This paper proves the existence of analytic structure in a compact subset K of T X C^n, where K has so-called "lineally convex" or "hypoconvex" fibers over T. It also addresses a related…

Generalizing results by Valette, Zamfirescu and Laczkovich, we will prove that a convex body $K$ is a polytope if there are sufficiently many tilings which contain a tile similar to $K$. Furthermore, we give an example that this can not be…
