The covariogram g_K(x) of a convex body K \subseteq E^d is the function which associates to each x \in E^d the volume of the intersection of K with K+x. Matheron asked whether g_K determines K, up to translations and reflections in a point.…

Let $K$ be a convex body in an affine chart of the $n$ dimensional real Projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$, $n \geq 3$, let $H$ be a hyperplane which is not a support hyperplane of $K$ and let $p_1,p_2 \in \mathbb{RP}^n \setminus H$ be two…

We conjecture that a convex polytope is uniquely determined up to isometry by its edge-graph, edge lengths and the collection of distances of its vertices to some arbitrary interior point, across all dimensions and all combinatorial types.…

Let $K, D$ be $n$-dimensional convex bodes. Define the distance between $K$ and $D$ as $$ d(K,D) = \inf \{\lambda | T K \subset D+x \subset \lambda \cdot TK \}, $$ where the infimum is taken over all $x \in R^n$ and all invertible linear…

The relationship between $L_p$ affine surface area and curvature measures is investigated. As a result, a new representation of the existing notion of $L_p$ affine surface area depending only on curvature measures is derived. Direct proofs…

This paper is dedicated to study the sine version of polar bodies and establish the $L_p$-sine Blaschke-Santal\'{o} inequality for the $L_p$-sine centroid body. The $L_p$-sine centroid body $\Lambda_p K$ for a star body…

Let $P$ be a convex polygon in a Hadamard surface $M$ with curvature $K$ satisfying $-k_2^2 \ge K \ge -k_1^2$. We give an upper bound of the circumradius of $P$ in terms of a lower bound of the curvature of $P$ at its vertices.

In this note we prove two ellipsoid characterization theorems. The first one is that if $K$ is a convex body in a normed space with unit ball $M$, and for any point $p \notin K$ and in any 2-dimensional plane $P$ intersecting $\inter K$ and…

Under mild assumptions on the kernel $K\ge0$, the non-local $K$-perimeter $P_K$ satisfies the monotonicity property on nested convex bodies, i.e., if $A\subset B\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ are two convex bodies, then $P_K(A)\le P_K(B)$. In this…

The convex body isoperimetric conjecture in the plane asserts that the least perimeter to enclose given area inside a unit disk is greater than inside any other convex set of area $\pi$. In this note we confirm two cases of the conjecture:…

In 1999, K. Bezdek posed a conjecture stating that among all convex bodies in $\mathbb R^3$, ellipsoids and bodies of revolution are characterized by the fact that all their planar sections have an axis of reflection. We prove Bezdek's…

We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…
