Let $K \subset \R^d$ be a smooth convex set and let $\P_\la$ be a Poisson point process on $\R^d$ of intensity $\la$. The convex hull of $\P_\la \cap K$ is a random convex polytope $K_\la$. As $\la \to \infty$, we show that the variance of…

We generalize our previous work on the phase stability and hydrodynamic of polar liquid crystals possessing local uniaxial $C_{\infty v}$-symmetry to biaxial systems exhibiting local $C_{2v}$-symmetry. Our work is motivated by the recently…

We study the geometrical optics generated by a refractive index of the form $n(x,y)=1/y$ $(y>0)$, where $y$ is the coordinate of the vertical axis in an orthogonal reference frame in $\R^2$. We thus obtain what we call "hyperbolic…

A biconvex polytope is a classical and tropical convex hull of finitely many points. Given a biconvex polytope, for each vertex of it we construct a directed bigraph and a gammoid so that the collection of base polytopes of those gammoids…
