We introduce the property of convex normality of rational polytopes and give a dimensionally uniform lower bound for the edge lattice lengths, guaranteeing the property. As an application, we show that if every edge of a lattice d-polytope…

It is a widely observed phenomenon in computer graphics that the size of the silhouette of a polyhedron is much smaller than the size of the whole polyhedron. This paper provides, for the first time, theoretical evidence supporting this for…

We consider the convex hull of a finite sample of i.i.d. points uniformly distributed in a convex body in $\R^d$, $d\geq 2$. We prove an exponential deviation inequality, which leads to rate optimal upper bounds on all the moments of the…

Inspired by a fundamental theorem of Bernstein, Kushnirenko, and Khovanskii we study the following Bezout type inequality for mixed volumes $$ V(L_1,\dots,L_{n})V_n(K)\leq V(L_1,K[{n-1}])V(L_2,\dots, L_{n},K). $$ We show that the above…

The simplex was conjectured to be the extremal convex body for the two following "problems of asymmetry":\\ P1) What is the minimal possible value of the quantity $\max_{K'} |K'|/|K|$? Here, $K'$ ranges over all symmetric convex bodies…

We prove a conjecture of Marques-Neves in arXiv:2103.10093, and several alternative formulations thereof, about the stability of the min-max width of three-spheres under the additional assumption of rotational symmetry. We can moreover…

In this paper we prove the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture for the case of large radii. Namely, if a finite number of points in Euclidean space $E^n$ is rearranged so that the distance between each pair of points does not decrease, then there…

Motivated by the central limit problem for convex bodies, we study normal approximation of linear functionals of high-dimensional random vectors with various types of symmetries. In particular, we obtain results for distributions which are…

The Rolling Ball Theorem asserts that given a convex body K in Euclidean space and having a smooth surface bd(K) with all principal curvatures not exceeding c>0 at all boundary points, K necessarily has the property that to each boundary…

It is known that every distance-regular digraph is connected and normal. An interesting question is: when is a given connected normal digraph distance-regular? Motivated by this question first we give some characterizations of weakly…

This paper presents connections between Gromov's work on isoperimetry of waists and Milman's work on the $M$-ellipsoid of a convex body. It is proven that any convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ has a linear image $\tilde{K} \subseteq…

This article derives closed-form parametric formulas for the Minkowski sums of convex bodies in d-dimensional Euclidean space with boundaries that are smooth and have all positive sectional curvatures at every point. Under these conditions,…

Let X be a normed space. A subset A of X is approximately convex if $d(ta+(1-t)b,A) \le 1$ for all $a,b \in A$ and $t \in [0,1]$ where $d(x,A)$ is the distance of $x$ to $A$. Let $\Co(A)$ be the convex hull and $\diam(A)$ the diameter of…

One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…

A convexity point of a convex body is a point with the property that the union of the body and its reflection in the point is convex. It is proved that in the plane a typical convex body (in the sense of Baire category) has infinitely many…

Let C = C(l_1, ..., l_n) be the n-dimensional orthogonal cross-polytope whose axes are of length l_1,..., l_n. Subject to the condition \sum l_i^2 = 1, the mean width of C is minimised when l_i = 1/sqrt{n} for every i, and it is maximised…

We aim to study the classical Rosenthal-Szasz inequality for a plane whose geometry is given by a norm. This inequality states that the bodies of constant width have the largest perimeter among all planar convex bodies of given diameter. In…

Hadwiger's covering conjecture is that every $n$-dimensional convex body can be covered by at most $2^n$ of its smaller positive homothetic copies, with $2^n$ copies required only for affine images of $n$-cube. Convex hull of a ball and an…

This study focuses on defining normal and strictly convex structures within Menger cone PM-space. It also presents a shared fixed point theorem for the existence of two self-mappings constructed on a strictly convex probabilistic cone…

Given a smooth simply connected planar domain, the area is bounded away from zero in terms of the maximal curvature alone. We show that in higher dimensions this is not true, and for a given maximal mean curvature we provide smooth…
