We show that, for every prime number p, there exist infinitely many K3 surfaces over Q whose rational points lie dense in the space of p-adic points. We also show that there exists a K3 surface over Q whose rational points lie dense in the…

Given a planar point set and an integer $k$, we wish to color the points with $k$ colors so that any axis-aligned strip containing enough points contains all colors. The goal is to bound the necessary size of such a strip, as a function of…

In this article, we study two problems concerning the size of the set of finite point configurations generated by a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$. The first problem concerns how the Lebesgue measure or the Hausdorff dimension of the…

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…

Assume $K$ is a convex body in $R^d$, and $X$ is a (large) finite subset of $K$. How many convex polytopes are there whose vertices come from $X$? What is the typical shape of such a polytope? How well the largest such polytope (which is…

A point P on a smooth hypersurface X of degree d in an N-dimensional projective space is called a star point if and only if the intersection of X with the embedded tangent space T_P(X) is a cone with vertex P. This notion is a…

We study convex sets C of finite (but non-zero volume in Hn and En. We show that the intersection of any such set with the ideal boundary of Hn has Minkowski (and thus Hausdorff) dimension of at most (n-1)/2, and this bound is sharp. In the…

We give upper bounds on the number of exceptional radial projections of arbitrary subsets of vector spaces over finite fields. Our bounds do not depend on the dimension of the ambient space. Let $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ be the $d$-dimensional…

Erd\H{o}s and Fishburn studied the maximum number of points in the plane that span $k$ distances and classified these configurations, as an inverse problem of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem. We consider the analogous problem for…

Necessary and sufficient conditions for convexity and strong convexity, respectively, of sublevel sets that are defined by finitely many real-valued $C^{1,1}$-maps are presented. A novel characterization of strongly convex sets in terms of…

A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ vertices are not known when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we construct a family of convex small $n$-gons, $n=2^s$…

For three dimensional complete Riemannian manifolds with scalar curvature no less than one, we obtain the sharp upper bound of complete stable minimal surfaces' diameter.

We consider various problems related to finding points in $\Q^{2}$ and in $\Q^{3}$ which lie at rational distance from the vertices of some specified geometric object, for example, a square or rectangle in $\Q^{2}$, and a cube or…

We give an attempt to build a classification of planar integral point sets. For two obtained classes, we provide general constructions of upper bounds for minimal diameter of integral point sets in higher dimensions of certain cardinality.…

Consider a convex domain B of space. We prove that there exist complete minimal surfaces which are properly immersed in B. We also demonstrate that if D and D' are convex domains with D bounded and the closure of D contained in D' then any…

Let $K$ and $L$ be two convex bodies in ${\mathbb R^4}$, such that their projections onto all $3$-dimensional subspaces are directly congruent. We prove that if the set of diameters of the bodies satisfy an additional condition and some…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and mean convex boundary $\partial M$. Assume that the mean curvature $H$ of the boundary $\partial M$ satisfies $H \geq (n-1) k >0$ for some positive…

We present a novel feasibility criteria for the finite intersection of convex sets given by inequalities. This criteria allows us to easily assert the feasibility by analyzing the unconstrained minimum of a speci?fic convex function, that…

We generalize the ham sandwich theorem for the case of well separated measures. Given convex bodies $K_1,...,K_d$ in $\mathbb{R_d}$ and numbers $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_d \in [0, 1]$, we give a sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness…

Suppose we choose $N$ points uniformly randomly from a convex body in $d$ dimensions. How large must $N$ be, asymptotically with respect to $d$, so that the convex hull of the points is nearly as large as the convex body itself? It was…
