In this paper we are concerned with the problem of finding hypersurfaces of constant curvature and prescribed boundary in the Euclidean space, using the theory of fully nonlinear elliptic equations. We prove that if the given data admits a…
The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr.~on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose…
We show that eigenvalues of the Robin Laplacian with a positive boundary parameter $\alpha$ on rectangles and unions of rectangtes satisfy P\'{o}lya-type inequalities, albeit with an exponent smaller than that of the corresponding Weyl…
It is well known that isoperimetric inequalities imply in a very general measure-metric-space setting appropriate concentration inequalities. The former bound the boundary measure of sets as a function of their measure, whereas the latter…
Sharp reverse affine isoperimetric inequalities for asymmetric Wulff shapes and their polars are established, along with the characterization of all extremals. These new inequalities have as special cases previously obtained simplex…
In recent years, it has been shown that some classical inequalities follow from a local stochastic dominance for naturally associated random polytopes. We strengthen planar isoperimetric inequalities by attaching a stochastic model to some…
By a real alphabeta-geometry we mean a four-dimensional manifold M equipped with a neutral metric h such that (M,h) admits both an integrable distribution of alpha-planes and an integrable distribution of beta-planes. We obtain a local…
We prove new $L_p$ affine isoperimetric inequalities for all $ p \in [-\infty,1)$. We establish, for all $p\neq -n$, a duality formula which shows that $L_p$ affine surface area of a convex body $K$ equals $L_\frac{n^2}{p}$ affine surface…
For a two-dimensional convex body, the Kovner-Besicovitch measure of symmetry is defined as the volume ratio of the largest centrally symmetric body contained inside the body to the original body. A classical result states that the…
This article is a survey of recent results on slicing inequalities for convex bodies. The focus is on the setting of arbitrary measures in place of volume.
We consider the edge- and vertex-isoperimetric probem on finite and infinite hexagonal grids: For a subset W of the hexagonal grid of given cardinality, we give a lower bound for the number of edges between W and its complement, and lower…
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 show that two smoothly bounded, strongly pseudoconvex domains which are diffeomorphic may be smoothly deformed into each other, with all intermediate domains being strongly pseudoconvex. This result relates to Lempert's ideas about…
The classical Petty projection inequality is an affine isoperimetric inequality which constitutes a cornerstone in the affine geometry of convex bodies. By extending the polar projection body to an inter-dimensional operator, Petty's…
We show how the recent improvement of the Hermite-Hadamard inequality can be applied to some (not necessarily convex) planar figures and three-dimensional bodies satisfying some kind of regularity.
The Bergman $p$-analytic content ($1\leq p<\infty $) of a planar domain $\Omega $ measures the $L^{p}(\Omega )$-distance between $\overline{z}$ and the Bergman space $A^{p}(\Omega )$ of holomorphic functions. It has a natural analogue in…
In the paper "Isoperimetry of waists and local versus global asymptotic convex geometries", it was proved that the existence of nicely bounded sections of two symmetric convex bodies K and L implies that the intersection of randomly rotated…
We study conformal metrics with prescribed Gaussian curvature on surfaces with conical singularities and geodesic boundary in supercritical regimes. Exploiting a variational argument, we derive a general existence result for surfaces with…
Several years ago the authors started looking at some problems of convex geometry from a more general point of view, replacing volume by an arbitrary measure. This approach led to new general properties of the Radon transform on convex…
High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to the sphere and the hyperbolic…
