Let ${\bf K} = (K_1, ..., K_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of convex compact subsets in the Euclidean space $\R^n$, and let $V(\cdot)$ be the Euclidean volume in $\R^n$. The Minkowski polynomial $V_{{\bf K}}$ is defined as $V_{{\bf K}}(\lambda_1, ...…

We prove the validity of the $p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the intrinsic volume $V_k$, $k=2,\dots, n-1$, of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in a neighborhood of the unit ball, for $0\le p<1$. We also prove that this inequality does…

The theory of Newton--Okounkov bodies provides direct relations and points out analogies between the theory of mixed volumes of convex bodies, on the one hand, and the intersection theories of Cartier divisors and of Shokurov $b$-divisors,…

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of $n$-dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under a discrete subgroup $SO(K)=\{ g \in SO(n); g(K)=K \}$, where $K$ is an $n$-cube or $n$-simplex. This provides new partial results…

Normal complexes are orthogonal truncations of polyhedral fans. In this paper, we develop the study of mixed volumes for normal complexes. Our main result is a sufficiency condition that ensures when the mixed volumes of normal complexes…

Let $K \subset {\mathbb R}^2$ be an $o$-symmetric convex body, and $K^*$ its polar body. Then we have $|K|\cdot |K^*| \ge 8$, with equality if and only if $K$ is a parallelogram. ($| \cdot |$ denotes volume). If $K \subset {\mathbb R}^2$ is…

For a Minkowski centered convex compact set $K$ we define $\alpha(K)$ to be the smallest possible factor to cover $K \cap (-K)$ by a rescalation of $\mathrm{conv} (K\cup (-K))$ and give a complete description of the possible values of…
