Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $f : \partial K \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$ a continuous, strictly positive function with $\int\limits_{\partial K} f(x) d \mu_{\partial K}(x) = 1$. We give an upper bound for the approximation…

A polytope in a finite-dimensional normed space is subequilateral if the length in the norm of each of its edges equals its diameter. Subequilateral polytopes occur in the study of two unrelated subjects: surface energy minimizing cones and…

In (the surface of) a convex polytope P^n in R^n+1, for small prescribed volume, geodesic balls about some vertex minimize perimeter. This revision corrects a mistake in the mass bound argument in the proof of Theorem 3.8.

We give estimates of the Gromov norm of the top dimensional class in $H_c^4(\mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb{H}_{\mathbb{C}}^2);\mathbb{R})$. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit upper bound for the simplicial volume of closed oriented manifolds…

For arbitrary two probability measures on real d-space with given means and variances (covariance matrices), we provide lower bounds for their total variation distance. In the one-dimensional case, a tight bound is given.

The smooth fixed volume discrepancy in the periodic case is studied here. It is proved that the Frolov point sets adjusted to the periodic case have optimal in a certain sense order of decay of the smooth periodic discrepancy. The upper…
