The main results of this paper interpret mixed volumes of lattice polytopes as mixed multiplicities of ideals and mixed multiplicities of ideals as Samuel's multiplicities. In particular, we can give a purely algebraic proof of Bernstein's…
In this paper, firstly, inspired by Nat\'{a}rio's recent work \cite{Na}, we use the isoperimetric inequality to derive some Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities for closed convex hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space $\H^{n+1}$ and in the…
We obtain a new extension of Rogers-Shephard inequality providing an upper bound for the volume of the sum of two convex bodies $K$ and $L$. We also give lower bounds for the volume of the $k$-th limiting convolution body of two convex…
Determining the number of embeddings of Laman graph frameworks is an open problem which corresponds to understanding the solutions of the resulting systems of equations. In this paper we investigate the bounds which can be obtained from the…
In this survey, we discuss volumetric and combinatorial results concerning (mostly finite) intersections or unions of balls (mostly of equal radii) in the $d$-dimensional real vector space, mostly equipped with the Euclidean norm. Our first…
In this paper, we apply the so-called Alexandrov-Bakelman-Pucci (ABP) method to establish some geometric inequalities. We first prove a logarithmic Sobolev inequality for closed $n$-dimensional minimal submanifolds $\Sigma$ of $\mathbb…
It is well-known that the convex and concave envelope of a multilinear polynomial over a box are polyhedral functions. Exponential-sized extended and projected formulations for these envelopes are also known. We consider the convexification…
The theory of intrinsic volumes of convex cones has recently found striking applications in areas such as convex optimization and compressive sensing. This article provides a self-contained account of the combinatorial theory of intrinsic…
We develop the calculus of superforms as a tool for convex geometry. The formalism is applied to valuations on convex bodies, the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities and Monge- Amp\`ere equations on the boundary of convex bodies.
The approximability of a convex body is a number which measures the difficulty to approximate that body by polytopes. We prove that twice the approximability is equal to the volume entropy for a Hilbert geometry in dimension two end three…
In this paper, we establish an Orlicz log-Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequality by introducing new concepts of mixed volume measure and Orlicz multiple mixed volume measure, and using the Orlicz-Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequality. The Orlicz…
A quantitative version of Minkowski sum, extending the definition of $\theta$-convolution of convex bodies, is studied to obtain extensions of the Brunn-Minkowski and Zhang inequalities, as well as, other interesting properties on Convex…
The intrinsic volumes are measures of the content of a convex body. This paper uses probabilistic and information-theoretic methods to study the sequence of intrinsic volumes of a convex body. The main result states that the intrinsic…
In this article, we give a complex-geometric proof of the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality without using toric compactifications. The idea is to use the Legendre transform and develop the Brascamp-Lieb proof of the Pr\'ekopa theorem. New…
Inspired by a fundamental theorem of Bernstein, Kushnirenko, and Khovanskii we study the following Bezout type inequality for mixed volumes $$ V(L_1,\dots,L_{n})V_n(K)\leq V(L_1,K[{n-1}])V(L_2,\dots, L_{n},K). $$ We show that the above…
The purpose of this note is to present several aspects of concentration phenomena in high dimensional geometry. At the heart of the study is a geometric analysis point of view coming from the theory of high dimensional convex bodies. The…
We establish some important inequalities under the condition that the weighted Ricci curvature $\mathrm{Ric}_{\infty}\geq K$ for some constant $K >0$ by using improved Bochner inequality and its integrated form. Firstly, we obtain a sharp…
In this paper we explore questions regarding the Minkowski sum of the boundaries of convex sets. Motivated by a question suggested to us by V.~Milman regarding the volume of $\partial K+ \partial T$ where $K$ and $T$ are convex bodies, we…
The Alesker product turns the space of smooth translation-invariant valuations on convex bodies into a commutative associative unital algebra, satisfying Poincar\'e duality and the hard Lefschetz theorem. In this article, a version of the…
We study the location and the size of the roots of Steiner polynomials of convex bodies in the Minkowski relative geometry. Based on a problem of Teissier on the intersection numbers of Cartier divisors of compact algebraic varieties it was…
