We consider the Tarski--Bang problem about covering of convex bodies by planks. The results of this kind give a lower bound on the sum of widths of planks (regions between a pair of parallel hyperplanes) covering a given convex body.…

Given a symmetric convex body $C$ and $n$ hyperplanes in an Euclidean space, there is a translate of a multiple of $C$, at least ${1\over n+1}$ times as large, inside $C$, whose interior does not meet any of the hyperplanes. The result…

Existence of symmetric (resp. asymmetric) solutions to the $L_p$ Gaussian Minkowski problem for $p\leq 0$ (resp. $p\geq 1$) will be provided. Moreover, existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions to the problem for $p>n$ will also be…

The Brunn-Minkowski and Pr\'{e}kopa-Leindler inequalities admit a variety of proofs that are inspired by convexity. Nevertheless, the former holds for compact sets and the latter for integrable functions so it seems that convexity has no…

We consider a generalization of the hyperplane problem to arbitrary measures in place of volume and to sections of lower dimensions. We prove this generalization for unconditional convex bodies and for duals of bodies with bounded volume…

The $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory for $p\geq 1$, proposed by Firey and developed by Lutwak in the 90's, replaces the Minkowski addition of convex sets by its $L^p$ counterpart, in which the support functions are added in $L^p$-norm.…

In ["Illumination of convex bodies with many symmetries", Mathematika 63 (2017)], Tikhomirov verified the Hadwiger-Boltyanski Illumination Conjecture for the class of 1-symmetric convex bodies of sufficiently large dimension. We propose an…

We prove an inequality that extends to arbitrary measures the hyperplane inequality for volume of unconditional convex bodies originally observed by Bourgain.

Minkowski's classical existence theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for a Borel measure on the unit sphere of Euclidean space to be the surface area measure of a convex body. The solution is unique up to a translation. We…

In this paper, combining the covolume, we study the Minkowski theory for the non-compact convex set with an asymptotic boundary condition. In particular, the mixed covolume of two non-compact convex sets is introduced and its geometric…

We prove a conjecture by Ruzsa from 2006 on a discrete version of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality, stating that for any $A,B\subset\mathbb{Z}^k$ and $\epsilon>0$ with $B$ not contained in $n_{k,\epsilon}$ parallel hyperplanes we have…

The Brunn-Minkowski Theory has seen several generalizations over the past century. Many of the core ideas have been generalized to measures. With the goal of framing these generalizations as a weighted Brunn-Minkowski theory, we prove the…

In this paper, we consider the concept of $C$-star body in a fixed pointed closed convex cone $C$ and study the dual mixed volume for $C$-star bodies. For $C$-star bodies, we establish the corresponding dual Brunn-Minkowski inequality, the…

Henstock and Macbeath asked in 1953 whether the Brunn-Minkowski inequality can be generalized to nonabelian locally compact groups; questions along the same line were also asked by Hrushovski, McCrudden, and Tao. We obtain here such an…
