We prove that if $A_0$ and $A_1$ are compact convex sets contained in a convex $n$-gon with vertices $g_1, \dots, g_n$, and $n$ is strictly greater than the number of common supporting lines of $A_0$ and $A_1$, then there exist $i \in…
The simplex was conjectured to be the extremal convex body for the two following "problems of asymmetry":\\ P1) What is the minimal possible value of the quantity $\max_{K'} |K'|/|K|$? Here, $K'$ ranges over all symmetric convex bodies…
Let $\Omega $ be a bounded ${\mathcal{C}}^{\infty}$-smoothly bounded domain in ${\mathbb{C}}^{n}.$ For such a domain we define a new notion between strict pseudo-convexity and pseudo-convexity: the size of the set $W$ of weakly…
In the present paper, the following convexity principle is proved: any closed convex multifunction, which is metrically regular in a certain uniform sense near a given point, carries small balls centered at that point to convex sets, even…
It is proved that if $C$ is a convex body in ${\Bbb R}^n$ then $C$ has an affine image $\widetilde C$ (of non-zero volume) so that if $P$ is any 1-codimensional orthogonal projection, $$|P\widetilde C| \ge |\widetilde C|^{n-1\over n}.$$ It…
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…
Generalizing the slicing inequality for functions on convex bodies from [11], it was proved in [4] that there exists an absolute constant $c$ so that for any $n\in \mathbb N$, any $q\in [0,n-1)$ which is not an odd integer, any…
We study two notions. One is that of spindle convexity. A set of circumradius not greater than one is spindle convex if, for any pair of its points, it contains every short circular arc of radius at least one, connecting them. The other…
We consider the following measure of symmetry of a convex n-dimensional body K: $\rho(K)$ is the smallest constant for which there is a point x in K such that for partitions of K by an n-1-dimensional hyperplane passing through x the ratio…
We present a spherical version of the theorem of Blaschke that every body of constant width $w < \frac{\pi}{2}$ can be approximated as well as we wish in the sense of the Hausdorff distance by a body of constant width $w$ whose boundary…
In this paper, we deal with the successive inner and outer radii with respect to Orlicz Minkowski sum. The upper and lower bounds for the radii of the Orlicz Minkowski sum of two convex bodies are established.
A closure system with the anti-exchange axiom is called a convex geometry. One geometry is called a sub-geometry of the other if its closed sets form a sublattice in the lattice of closed sets of the other. We prove that convex geometries…
This article explores some properties of universal covers of compact Kahler manifolds, under the assumption of Caratheodory measure hyperbolicity. In particular, by comparing invariant volume forms, an inequality is established between the…
We prove that if the Carath\'eodory metric on a strictly pseudoconvex domain with a smooth boundary is locally K\"{a}hler near the boundary, then the domain is biholomorphic to a ball. We also establish a local rigidity theorem for domains…
In this article, we study the geometry of an infinite dimensional Hyperbolic space. We will consider the group of isometries of the Hilbert ball equipped with the Carath$\acute{e}$odory metric and learn about some special subclasses of this…
A family of homothets of an o-symmetric convex body K in d-dimensional Euclidean space is called a Minkowski arrangement if no homothet contains the center of any other homothet in its interior. We show that any pairwise intersecting…
In this paper we state a one-to-one connection between the maximal ratio of the circumradius and the diameter of a body (the Jung constant) in an arbitrary Minkowski space and the maximal Minkowski asymmetry of the complete bodies within…
We prove the existence and uniqueness up to translations of the solution to a Minkowski type problem for the torsional rigidity in the class of open bounded convex subsets of the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. For the existence part we…
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,…
Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental problem in geometry. Given a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for a fixed dimension $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating polytope for a given Hausdorff…
