We completely solve the problem of enumerating combinatorially inequivalent $d$-dimensional polytopes with $d+3$ vertices. A first solution of this problem, by Lloyd, was published in 1970. But the obtained counting formula was not correct,…

In this work the Isoperimetric Inequality for integral varifolds is used to obtain sharp estimates for the size of the set where the density quotient is small and to generalise Calder\'on's and Zygmund's theory of first order…

We develop criteria based on a calibration argument via discrete PDE and semidiscrete optimal transport, for finding sharp isoperimetric inequalities of the form $(\sharp \Omega)^{d-1} \le C (\sharp \overrightarrow{\partial\Omega})^d$ where…

We introduce a family of polytopes -- in-in zonotopes -- whose boundary structure organizes the contributions to scalar equal-time correlators in flat space computed via the in-in formalism. We provide explicit Minkowski sum and facet…

We present a new proof (based on spectral decomposition) of a bound originally proved by Sidelnikov~\, for the frame potentials $\sum_{ij} \left( {\bf P}_i \cdot {\bf P}_j \right)^\ell $ on a unit--sphere in $d$ dimensions. Sidelnikov's…

We investigate the convex-body containment problem $\max\{s >0 : s Z \subseteq Q\}$, where the outer body $Q \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ is described by a membership oracle and the inner body $Z \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ is a zonotope. Our main…

In "Classical Electrodynamics" (Jackson) a theorem is proved on the average of an electrostatic or magnetostatic field over a spherical volume. The proof of the theorem is based on an expansion in spherical harmonics and it is useful for…
