We consider the discrepancy of the integer lattice with respect to the collection of all translated copies of a dilated convex body having a finite number of flat, possibly non-smooth, points in its boundary. We estimate the $L^{p}$ norm of…

We estimate the $L^{p}$ norms of the discrepancy between the volume and the number of integer points in $r\Omega-x$, a dilated by a factor $r$ and translated by a vector $x$ of a convex body $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with smooth boundary…

We study the Dirichlet problem for a graph $\Sigma$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with normalized constant mean curvature $H>0$ and planar boundary $\Gamma=\partial \Omega$. Our main result is that the optimal solvability condition, namely that the…

We consider the Gaussian correlation inequality for nonsymmetric convex sets. More precisely, if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is convex and the origin $0\in A$, then for any ball $B$ centered at the origin, it holds $\gamma_d(A\cap B)\geq…

Given an open set with finite perimeter $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider the space $LD_\gamma^{p}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, of functions with $p$th-integrable deformation tensor on $\Omega$ and with $p$ th-integrable trace value…

Let $M$ be a compact closed manifold of variable negative curvature. Fix an element $\operatorname{id} \neq \gamma$ in the fundamental group $\Gamma$ of $M$, and denote the set of elements in $\Gamma$ that are conjugate to $\gamma$ by…

A property of smooth convex domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is that if two points on the boundary $x, y \in \partial \Omega$ are close to each other, then their normal vectors $n(x), n(y)$ point roughly in the same direction and this…

We propose a method for measuring the cosmological density parameter $\Omega$ from the statistics of the divergence field, $\theta \equiv H^{-1} \div v$, the divergence of peculiar velocity, expressed in units of the Hubble constant, $H…

In this short note we consider an unconventional overdetermined problem for the torsion function: let $n\geq 2$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded open set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose torsion function $u$ (i.e. the solution to $\Delta u=-1$ in $\Omega$,…

We estimate some mixed $L^{p}\left( L^{2}\right) $ norms of the discrepancy between the volume and the number of integer points in $r\Omega-x$, a dilated by a factor $r$ and translated by a vector $x$ of a convex body $\Omega$ in…

Bounds are obtained for the $L^p$ norm of the torsion function $v_{\Omega}$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1,\, v\in H_0^1(\Omega),$ in terms of the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega$ and the principal eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the…

We show that independent and uniformly distributed sampling points are as good as optimal sampling points for the approximation of functions from the Sobolev space $W_p^s(\Omega)$ on bounded convex domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in…

The positive discrepancy of a graph $G$ of edge density $p=e(G)/\binom{v(G)}{2}$ is defined as $$\mbox{disc}^{+}(G)=\max_{U\subset V(G)}e(G[U])-p\binom{|U|}{2}.$$ In 1993, Alon proved (using the equivalent terminology of minimum bisections)…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ have minimal Gaussian surface area among all sets satisfying $\Omega=-\Omega$ with fixed Gaussian volume. Let $A=A_{x}$ be the second fundamental form of $\partial\Omega$ at $x$, i.e. $A$ is the matrix of…

If $\Omega$ is the interior of a convex polygon in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ and $f,g$ two asymptotic geodesics, we show that the distance function $d\left(f\left(t\right),g\left(t\right)\right)$ is convex for $t$ sufficiently large. The same result…

We provide a sharp lower bound for the perimeter of the inner parallel sets of a convex body $\Omega$. The bound depends only on the perimeter and inradius $r$ of the original body and states that \[|\partial\Omega_t| \geq…
