We generalise theorems of Khodorovskiy and Park-Park-Shin, and give new topological proofs of those theorems, using embedded surfaces in the 4-ball and branched double covers. These theorems exhibit smooth codimension-zero embeddings of…

Given two symmetric convex bodies $L \subseteq K \subseteq \R^n$ with $L$ strictly convex, we prove that there exist at least $n$ hyperplanes $H$ tangent to $L$, such that the center of mass of $H \cap K$ belongs to $\partial L$. The…

We revisit an ingenious argument of K. Ball to provide sharp estimates for the volume of sections of a convex body in John's position. Our technique combines the geometric Brascamp-Lieb inequality with a generalised Parseval-type identity.…

We show that any $n\times m$ matrix $A$ can be approximated in operator norm by a submatrix with a number of columns of order the stable rank of $A$. This improves on existing results by removing an extra logarithmic factor in the size of…

We prove that the number of cyclically symmetric, self-complementary plane partitions contained in a cube of side $2n$ equals the square of the number of totally symmetric, self-complementary plane partitions contained in the same cube,…

In this paper, we establish an improved coefficient bounds for quasiregular and elliptic harmonic mappings and using these bounds we establish Landau-Bloch type theorem for $(K,K')$-elliptic and K-quasiregular harmonic mappings in plane.…

We introduce the mixed convolution bodies of two convex symmetric bodies. We prove that if the boundary of a body $K$ is smooth enough then as $\delta$ tends to $1$ the $\delta$--$M^*$--convolution body of $K$ with itself tends to a…

We study the asymptotic behavior of smooth, origin-symmetric, strictly convex bodies under the centro-affine normal flows. By means of a stability version of the Blaschke-Santal\'{o} inequality, we obtain regularity of the solutions…

A classical theorem of Alon and Milman states that any $d$ dimensional centrally symmetric convex body has a projection of dimension $m\geq e^{c\sqrt{\ln{d}}}$ which is either close to the $m$-dimensional Euclidean ball or to the…

We provide infinitely many solutions of a Dirichlet problem on balls.

We study the way in which the Euclidean subspaces of a Banach space fit together, somewhat in the spirit of the Ka\v{s}in decomposition. The main tool that we introduce is an estimate regarding the convex hull of a convex body in John's…

In this paper we address the global stability problem for double-bubbles in the plane. This is accomplished by combining the "improved convergence theorem" for planar clusters developed in arXiv:1409.6652 with an ad hoc analysis of the…

We prove a new theorem of Tverberg type which confirms the conjecture of Blagojevic, Frick, and Ziegler about the existence of "balanced Tverberg partitions" (Conjecture 6.6 in, Tverberg plus constraints, Bull. London Math. Soc., 46 (2014)…

We prove a counterpart of the log-convex density conjecture in the hyperbolic plane.

We provide a resolution of the Heesch problem for homogeneous (also known as semi-regular) tilings, and as a corollary, for tilings by convex monotiles in the hyperbolic plane. We also provide the first known example of weakly aperiodic…

We investigate the asymptotic best approximation of a smooth, strictly convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ by inscribed polytopes with a restricted number of vertices under the intrinsic volume difference. We prove rigidity phenomena in both…

We first prove a homogenization result for the fundamental solution of the linear kinetic Fokker Planck equation. We show that this solution converges, in an averaged $L^2$ sense, to the fundamental solution of an effective heat equation…

We prove a version of the Bernstein-Walsh theorem on uniform polynomial approximation of holomorphic functions on compact sets in several complex variables. Here we consider subclasses of the full polynomial space associated to a convex…

A new intrinsic volume metric is introduced for the class of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$. As an application, an inequality is proved for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by arbitrarily positioned polytopes…

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 spherical and hyperbolic planes.…
