In this paper an explicit formula for a lower bound on the volume of a hyperbolic orbifold, dependent on dimension and the maximal order of torsion in the orbifolds' fundamental group, is constructed.

We study a specific convex maximization problem in the space of continuous functions defined on a semi-infinite interval. An unexplained connection to the discrete version of this problem is investigated.

We consider the Holmes--Thompson volume of balls in the Funk geometry on the interior of a convex domain. We conjecture that for a fixed radius, this volume is minimized when the domain is a simplex and the ball is centered at the…

In this note, we estimate the upper bound of volume of closed positively or nonnegatively curved Alexandrov space $X$ with strictly convex boundary. We also discuss the equality case. In particular, the Boundary Conjecture holds when the…

We propose a quantum version of the quadratic volume simplicity constraint for the EPRL spin foam model. It relies on a formula for the volume of 4-dimensional polyhedra, depending on its bivectors and the knotting class of its boundary…

We show that the infimum of the dual volume of the convex core of a convex co-compact hyperbolic $3$-manifold with incompressible boundary coincides with the infimum of the Riemannian volume of its convex core, as we vary the geometry by…

It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $P\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in its interior which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $P$. The conjecture is known to be true for…

It is well known that the convex hull of $\{(x,y,xy)\}$, where $(x,y)$ is constrained to lie in a box, is given by the Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT) constraints. Belotti {\em et al.\,}(2010) and Miller {\em et al.\,}(2011)…

In this article, we consider the problems of finding in $d+1$ dimensions a minimum-volume axis-parallel box, a minimum-volume arbitrarily-oriented box and a minimum-volume convex body into which a given set of $d$-dimensional unit-radius…

Let M be a hyperbolic n-manifold whose cusps have torus cross-sections. In arXiv:0901.0056, the authors constructed a variety of nonpositively and negatively curved spaces as "2\pi-fillings" of M by replacing the cusps of M with compact…

We prove the theorem mentioned in the title, for ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, where $n \ge 3$. The case of the simplex was known previously. Also, the case $n=2$ was settled, but there the infimum was some well-defined function of the side lengths. We…

Constructing well-behaved Laplacian and mass matrices is essential for tetrahedral mesh processing. Unfortunately, the \emph{de facto} standard linear finite elements exhibit bias on tetrahedralized regular grids, motivating the development…

Refinements of the worst case complexity over instances of fixed input size consider the input order or the input structure, but rarely both at the same time. Barbay et al. [2016] described ``synergistic'' solutions on multisets, which take…

The rank of an $A$-hypergeometric $D$-module $M_A(\beta)$, associated with a full rank $(d\times n)$-matrix $A$ and a vector of parameters $\beta\in \mathbb{C}^d$, is known to be the normalized volume of $A$, denoted $\mathrm{vol}(A)$, when…

Static and inflating brane world models are considered in $4+n$-dimensions with a non zero bulk cosmological constant and with a hyper-spherically symmetric topological defect residing in the $n$ extra dimensions. Several vacuum solutions…

Let $H_n$ be the minimal number such that any $n$-dimensional convex body can be covered by $H_n$ translates of interior of that body. Similarly $H_n^s$ is the corresponding quantity for symmetric bodies. It is possible to define $H_n$ and…

The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller $n$-dimensional volume. It is known that the answer to this problem is affirmative if…

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…

Let $\partial \,\mathcal{C}$ be the boundary of a compact convex body $\mathcal{C}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n,\, n\geq 2$, and $O$ be an interior point of $\mathcal C$. Every straight line $l$ containing $O$ cuts from $\mathcal{C}$ a segment $[AB]$…

In \cite{Sz17-2} we proved that to each saturated congruent hyperball packing exists a decomposition of $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ into truncated tetrahedra. Therefore, in order to get a density upper bound for…
