A generalization of Young's inequality for convolution with sharp constant is conjectured for scenarios where more than two functions are being convolved, and it is proven for certain parameter ranges. The conjecture would provide a unified…

We use the generalized Minkowski billiard characterization of the EHZ-capacity of Lagrangian products in order to reprove that the $4$-dimensional Viterbo conjecture holds for the Lagrangian products (any triangle/parallelogram in…

We consider two well-known problems: upper bounding the volume of lower dimensional ellipsoids contained in convex bodies given their John ellipsoid, and lower bounding the volume of ellipsoids containing projections of convex bodies given…

We introduce the mixed convolution bodies of two convex symmetric bodies. We prove that if the boundary of a body $K$ is smooth enough then as $\delta$ tends to $1$ the $\delta$--$M^*$--convolution body of $K$ with itself tends to a…

We study isomorphic properties of two generalizations of intersection bodies, the class of k-intersection bodies and the class of generalized k-intersection bodies. We also show that the Banach-Mazur distance of the k-intersection body of a…

For a compact set $A \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ and an integer $k\ge 1$, let us denote by $$ A[k] = \left\{a_1+\cdots +a_k: a_1, \ldots, a_k\in A\right\}=\sum_{i=1}^k A$$ the Minkowski sum of $k$ copies of $A$. A theorem of Shapley, Folkmann…

The equichordal point problem is a classical question in geometry, asking whether there exist multiple equichordal points within a single convex body. An equichordal point is defined as a point through which all chords of the convex body…

We show that learning a convex body in $\RR^d$, given random samples from the body, requires $2^{\Omega(\sqrt{d/\eps})}$ samples. By learning a convex body we mean finding a set having at most $\eps$ relative symmetric difference with the…

In this paper, we establish a class of generalized Poincar\'{e}-type inequalities for torsional rigidity on the boundary of a convex body of class $C^{2}_{+}$ in $\rnnn$ by using the concavity of related Brunn-Minkowski inequality.

The Brunn-Minkowski Theory has seen several generalizations over the past century. Many of the core ideas have been generalized to measures. With the goal of framing these generalizations as a weighted Brunn-Minkowski theory, we prove the…

In the proof of his famous 5K-theorem, W. Banaszczyk introduced a transformation of convex bodies for which the Gaussian measure is monotone. In this note, we present a simplified proof of this monotonicity by slightly modifying…

We consider Newton's problem of minimal resistance, in particular we address the problem arising in the limit if the height goes to infinity. We establish existence of solutions and lack radial symmetry of solutions. Moreover, we show that…

In this paper, we prove some rigidity theorems for compact Bach-flat $n$-manifold with the positive constant scalar curvature. In particular, our conditions in Theorem 1.4 have the additional properties of being sharp.

In this paper we study the space $\mathcal{M}$ of all nonempty compact metric spaces considered up to isometry, equipped with the Gromov--Hausdorff distance. We show that each ball in $\mathcal{M}$ with center at the one-point space is…

We show that the lattice Hadwiger number of superballs is exponential in the dimension. The same is true for some more general convex bodies.

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under a discrete subgroup of $O(3)$ in several cases. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product in each…

In the present paper we initiate the study of the Musielak-Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for convex bodies. In particular, we develop the Musielak-Orlicz-Gauss image problem aiming to characterize the Musielak-Orlicz-Gauss image measure of…

We present the Carath\'eodory-Reiffen metric and the inner Carath\'eodory distance on generalized parabolas. It turns out that on such parabolas the Carath\'eodory distance is not inner.

Towards the boundary of the big cone, Newton-Okounkov bodies do not vary continuously and in fact the body of a boundary class is not well defined. Using the global Okounkov body one can nonetheless define a numerical invariant, the…

Given a rational pointed $n$-dimensional cone $C$, we study the integer Carath\'{e}odory rank $\operatorname{CR}(C)$ and its asymptotic form $\operatorname{CR^{\rm a}}(C)$, where we consider ``most'' integer vectors in the cone. The main…
