As a natural analog of Urysohn's inequality in Euclidean space, Gao, Hug, and Schneider showed in 2003 that in spherical or hyperbolic space, the total measure of totally geodesic hypersurfaces meeting a given convex body K is minimized…
We consider polygonal tilings of certain regions and use these to give intuitive definitions of tiling-based perimeter and area. We apply these definitions to rhombic tilings of Elnitsky polygons, computing sharp bounds and average values…
In this semi-expository paper we review the notion of a spherical space. In particular we present some recent results of Wedhorn on the classification of spherical spaces over arbitrary fields. As an application, we introduce and classify…
We prove that area-minimizing submanifolds are not generically smooth, settling a conjecture of White that asks the generic smoothness of area-minimizing submanifolds. We furthermore establish a lower bound on the Hausdorff dimension of the…
I show that if a geodesic space has curvature bounded below locally in the sense of Alexandrov then its completion has the same lower curvature bound globally.
A regularization procedure developed in [1] for the integral curvature invariants on manifolds with conical singularities is generalized to the case of squashed cones. In general, the squashed conical singularities do not have rotational…
We derive upper and lower bounds on the sum of distances of a spherical code of size $N$ in $n$ dimensions when $N\sim n^\alpha, 0<\alpha\le 2.$ The bounds are derived by specializing recent general, universal bounds on energy of spherical…
We begin by studying the surface area of an ellipsoid in n-dimensional Euclidean space as the function of the lengths of the semi-axes. We write down an explicit formula as an integral over the unit sphere in n-dimensions and use this…
We show that any minimizing hypercone can be perturbed into one side to a properly embedded smooth minimizing hypersurface in the Euclidean space, and every viscosity mean convex cone admits a properly embedded smooth mean convex…
Solving a long-standing open question in convex geometry, we will show that typical convex surfaces contain points of infinite curvature in all tangent directions. To prove this, we use an easy curvature definition imitating the idea of…
For appropriately values of $H$, we obtain an area estimate for a complete non-compact $H$-surface of finite topology and finite area, embedded in a three-manifold of negative curvature. Moreover, in the case of equality and under…
It was shown in \cite{GL} that the maximal surface area of a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with respect to a rotation invariant log-concave probability measure $\gamma$ is of order $\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt[4]{Var|X|} \sqrt{\mathbb{E}|X|}}$,…
We prove that every stationary polyhedral varifold minimizes area in the following senses: (1) its area cannot be decreased by a one-to-one Lipschitz ambient deformation that coincides with the identity outside of a compact set, and (2) it…
By correcting an example by Polyanskii, we show that there exist reduced polytopes in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This partially answers the question posed by Lassak on the existence of reduced polytopes in $d$-dimensional Euclidean…
We explore the Steklov eigenvalue problem on convex polygons, focusing mainly on the inverse Steklov problem. Our primary finding reveals that, for almost all convex polygonal domains, there exist at most finitely many non-congruent domains…
Let $k \geq 2$ be a constant. Given any $k$ convex polygons in the plane with a total of $n$ vertices, we present an $O(n\log^{2k-3}n)$ time algorithm that finds a translation of each of the polygons such that the area of intersection of…
We give a short proof of the contractibility of the space of geodesic triangulations with fixed combinatorial type of a convex polygon in the Euclidean plane. Moreover, for any $n>0$, we show that there exists a space of geodesic…
We determine all non-edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by regular spherical polygons of three or more sides.
An inequality on torsional rigidity is established. For tangential polygons this inequality is stronger than an inequality of Polya and Szego for convex domains. (A survey of related work, not in the journal submission, is presented in the…
A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ sides are unknown when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we propose an approach to construct convex small $n$-gons of…
