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 stability result in terms of the perimeter is obtained for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator. In particular, we prove that, once we fix the dimension $n\geq2$, there exists a constant $c>0$, depending only on $n$,…

We study the precise asymptotic volume of balls in Orlicz spaces and show that the volume of the intersection of two Orlicz balls undergoes a phase transition when the dimension of the ambient space tends to infinity. This generalizes a…

We address the following generalization $P$ of the Lowner-John ellipsoid problem. Given a (non necessarily convex) compact set $K\subset R^n$ and an even integer $d$, find an homogeneous polynomial $g$ of degree $d$ such that $K\subset…

Let $M^d$ denote the $d$-dimensional Euclidean, hyperbolic, or spherical space. The $r$-dual set of given set in $M^d$ is the intersection of balls of radii $r$ centered at the points of the given set. In this paper we prove that for any…

A body moves in a medium composed of noninteracting point particles; interaction of particles with the body is absolutely elastic. It is required to find the body's shape minimizing or maximizing resistance of the medium to its motion. This…

Motivated by conjectures of Mahler and Makai Jr., we study bounds on the volume of a convex body in terms of the successive minima of its polar body.

G. Fejes T\'oth posed the following problem: Determine the infimum of the densities of the lattices of closed balls in $\bR^n$ such that each affine $k$-subspace $(0 \le k \le n-1)$ of $\bR^n$ intersects some ball of the lattice. We give a…

For compact Riemannian manifolds with convex boundary, B.White proved the following alternative: Either there is an isoperimetric inequality for minimal hypersurfaces or there exists a closed minimal hypersurface, possibly with a small…

We show that every Banach space containing isomorphic copies of $c_0$ can be equivalently renormed so that every nonempty relatively weakly open subset of its unit ball has diameter 2 and, however, its unit ball still contains convex…

The Loomis-Whitney inequality states that the volume of a convex body is bounded by the product of volumes of its projections onto orthogonal hyperplanes. We provide an extension of both this fact and a generalization of this fact due to…

W. Schmidt, H. Montgomery, and J. Beck proved a result on irregularities of distribution with respect to $d$-dimensional balls. In this paper, we extend their result to any $d$-dimensional convex body with a smooth boundary and finite order…

The Illumination Problem may be phrased as the problem of covering a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space by a minimum number of translates of its interior. By a probabilistic argument, we show that, arbitrarily close to the Euclidean ball,…

Ehrhart's conjecture proposes a sharp upper bound on the volume of a convex body whose barycenter is its only interior lattice point. Recently, Berman and Berndtsson proved this conjecture for a class of rational polytopes including…

The classical Loomis-Whitney inequality and the uniform cover inequality of Bollob\'{a}s and Thomason provide lower bounds for the volume of a compact set in terms of its lower dimensional coordinate projections. We provide further…

This paper presents a geometric approach to the classical isoperimetric problem by analysing the efficiency of regular polygons in enclosing maximum area for a fixed perimeter. Using efficiency metrics, it proves that regular polygons…

We show that any $n\times m$ matrix $A$ can be approximated in operator norm by a submatrix with a number of columns of order the stable rank of $A$. This improves on existing results by removing an extra logarithmic factor in the size of…

We consider an inverse problem of determining coefficient matrices in an $N$-system of second-order elliptic equations in a bounded two dimensional domain by a set of Cauchy data on arbitrary subboundary. The main result of the article is…

We study the problem of existence of isoperimetric regions for large volumes, in $C^0$-locally asymptotically Euclidean Riemannian manifolds with a finite number of $C^0$-asymptotically Schwarzschild ends. Then we give a geometric…

We determine when a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is the closed unit ball of a reasonable crossnorm on $\mathbb{R}^{d_1}\otimes\cdots\otimes\mathbb{R}^{d_l},$ $d=d_1\cdots d_l.$ We call these convex bodies "tensorial bodies". We prove that,…
