Motivated by a long-standing conjecture of Polya and Szeg\"o about the Newtonian capacity of convex bodies, we discuss the role of concavity inequalities in shape optimization, and we provide several counterexamples to the…

We discuss the classes $\fC$, $\fM$, and $\fS$ of analytic functions that can be realized as the Liv\v{s}ic characteristic functions of a symmetric densely defined operator $\dot A$ with deficiency indices $(1,1)$, the Weyl-Titchmarsh…

We develop a topological approach to prove the generalized Lax conjecture using the fact that determinants of sufficiently big symmetric linear pencils are able to express the rigidly convex sets of RZ polynomials of any degree $d$.…

In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing L_p-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the L_p-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we…

The Wills functional $\mathcal{W}(K)$ of a convex body $K$, defined as the sum of its intrinsic volumes $\mathrm{V}_i(K)$, turns out to have many interesting applications and properties. In this paper we make profit of the fact that it can…

It is well known that finite-dimensional polyhedral convex sets can be generated by finitely many points and finitely many directions. Representation formulas in this spirit are obtained for convex polyhedra and generalized convex polyhedra…

We study non-linear functionals, including quasi-linear functionals, p-conic quasi-linear functionals, d-functionals, r-functionals, and their relationships to deficient topological measures and topological measures on locally compact…

The purpose of this work is twofold. First, we aim to extend for $0<s<1$ the results of one of the authors about equilibrium measures in the real axis in external fields created by point-mass charges for the case of logarithmic potentials…

The variation of a class of Orlicz moments with respect to the Asplund sum within the class of log-concave functions is demonstrated. Such a variational formula naturally leads to a family of dual Orlicz curvature measures for log-concave…

In his work on log-concavity of multiplicities, Okounkov showed in passing that one could associate a convex body to a linear series on a projective variety, and then use convex geometry to study such linear systems. Although Okounkov was…
