We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…
We obtain a sharp characterization of the Euclidean ball among all convex bodies K whose boundary has a pointwise k-th mean curvature not smaller than a geometric constant at almost all normal points. This geometric constant depends only on…
Approximate a smooth convex body $K$ with nonvanishing curvature by the convex hull of $n$ independent random points sampled from its boundary $\partial K$. In case the points are distributed according to the optimal density, we prove that…
We prove that if $K$ is a symmetric and isotropic convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$, then $$\int_K\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\int_{K^\circ}\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\leq \left(\int_{B_2^n}\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\right)^2,\qquad\forall…
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…
We study the way in which the Euclidean subspaces of a Banach space fit together, somewhat in the spirit of the Ka\v{s}in decomposition. The main tool that we introduce is an estimate regarding the convex hull of a convex body in John's…
We prove some sharp isoperimetric type inequalities for domains with smooth boundary on Riemannian manifolds. For example, using generalized convexity, we show that among all domains with a lower bound $l$ for the cut distance and Ricci…
In this short note, we establish Blaschke--Santal\'o-type inequalities for $r$-ball bodies. Building on these inequalities, we somewhat further extend earlier results on analogues of the Kneser--Poulsen conjecture concerning intersections…
Many star bodies have convex subsets with approximately the same Gaussian measure (of the complement). Inspired by this phenomenon, and in connection with the randomized Dvoretzky theorem for Lorentz spaces, we derive bounds on the…
We consider a conjecture made by Ge, Wang and Wu regarding weighted Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities for horospherically convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space (a bound, for some physically motivated weight function, of the weighted…
Consider some convex body $K\subset\mathbb R^d$. Let $X_1,\dots, X_k$, where $k\leq d$, be random points independently and uniformly chosen in $K$, and let $\xi_k$ be a uniformly distributed random linear $k$-plane. We show that for…
In this paper we compare the different phenomena that occur when intersecting geometric objects with random geodesics on the unit sphere and inside convex bodies. On the high dimensional sphere we see that with probability bounded away from…
In this note we derive a new Minkowski-type inequality for closed convex surfaces in the hyperbolic 3-space. The inequality is obtained by explicitly computing the area of the family of surfaces obtained from the normal flow and then…
We investigate lower asymptotic bounds of number variances for invariant locally square-integrable random measures on Euclidean and real hyperbolic spaces. In the Euclidean case we show that there are subsequences of radii for which the…
In hyperbolic space $H^n$ we set a geodesic ball of radius $\rho$. Consider a $k$ dimensional minimal submanifold passing through the origin of the geodesic ball with boundary lies on the boundary of that geodesic ball. We prove that its…
We study approximations of smooth convex bodies by random ball-polytopes. We examine the following probability model: let $K\subset{\bf R}^d$ be a convex body such that $K$ slides freely in a ball of radius $R>0$ and has $C^2$ smooth…
While there is extensive literature on approximation, deterministic as well as random, of general convex bodies $K$ in the symmetric difference metric, or other metrics arising from intrinsic volumes, very little is known for corresponding…
We prove two weighted geometric inequalities that hold for strictly mean convex and star-shaped hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. The first one involves the weighted area and the area of the hypersurface and also the volume of the region…
Given a subset K of the unit Euclidean sphere, we estimate the minimal number m = m(K) of hyperplanes that generate a uniform tessellation of K, in the sense that the fraction of the hyperplanes separating any pair x, y in K is nearly…
The main result is the construction of ergodic transversal measures of full support on the space of all k-surfaces of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold. This space is a laminated space, each of its leaf being identified with a "complete"…
