We show that the Volume Conjecture for polyhedra implies a weak version of the Stoker Conjecture; in turn we prove that this weak version of the Stoker conjecture implies the Stoker conjecture. The main tool used is an extension of a result…

In this paper we continue the study of symplectically self-polar convex bodies started in arXiv:2211.14630. We construct symplectically self-polar convex bodies of the minimal Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacity. This in turn proves that the…

In his paper "On the Schlafli differential equality", J. Milnor conjectured that the volume of n-dimensional hyperbolic and spherical simplices, as a function of the dihedral angles, extends continuously to the closure of the space of…

In this work, we study the volume ratio of the projective tensor products $\ell^n_p\otimes_{\pi}\ell_q^n\otimes_{\pi}\ell_r^n$ with $1\leq p\leq q \leq r \leq \infty$. We obtain asymptotic formulas that are sharp in almost all cases. As a…

Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…

The section volume function $A_K(\xi,t), \ \xi \in \mathbb R^n, \ t \in \mathbb R,$ of a body $K \subset \mathbb R^n$ evaluates the $(n-1)$-dimensional volume of the cross-section $K$ by the hyperplane $\{ x \cdot \xi=t \}.$ We are…

We resolve a conjecture of Kalai relating approximation theory of convex bodies by simplicial polytopes to the face numbers and primitive Betti numbers of these polytopes and their toric varieties. The proof uses higher notions of…

In a $d$-dimensional convex body $K$, for $n \leq d+1$, random points $X_0, \dots, X_{n-1}$ are chosen according to the uniform distribution in $K$. Their convex hull is a random $(n-1)$-simplex with probability $1$. We denote its…

We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

We prove several estimates for the volume, mean width, and the value of the Wills functional of sections of convex bodies in John's position, as well as for their polar bodies. These estimates extend some well-known results for convex…

We provide a description of the space of continuous and translation invariant Minkowski valuations $\Phi:\mathcal{K}^n\to\mathcal{K}^n$ for which there is an upper and a lower bound for the volume of $\Phi(K)$ in terms of the volume of the…

We prove the validity of the $p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the intrinsic volume $V_k$, $k=2,\dots, n-1$, of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in a neighborhood of the unit ball, for $0\le p<1$. We also prove that this inequality does…

We consider the problem of estimating the volume of a compact domain in a Euclidean space based on a uniform sample from the domain. We assume the domain has a boundary with positive reach. We propose a data splitting approach to correct…

We give a deterministic 2^{O(n)} algorithm for computing an M-ellipsoid of a convex body, matching a known lower bound. This has several interesting consequences including improved deterministic algorithms for volume estimation of convex…

We study the problem of approximating the mixed volume $V(P_1^{(\alpha_1)}, \dots, P_k^{(\alpha_k)})$ of an $k$-tuple of convex polytopes $(P_1, \dots, P_k)$, each of which is defined as the convex hull of at most $m_0$ points in…

In this paper we consider the following analog of Bezout inequality for mixed volumes: $$V(P_1,\dots,P_r,\Delta^{n-r})V_n(\Delta)^{r-1}\leq \prod_{i=1}^r V(P_i,\Delta^{n-1})\ \text{ for }2\leq r\leq n.$$ We show that the above inequality is…

The approximability of a convex body is a number which measures the difficulty to approximate that body by polytopes. We prove that twice the approximability is equal to the volume entropy for a Hilbert geometry in dimension two end three…

Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental problem in geometry. Given a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for a fixed dimension $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating polytope for a given Hausdorff…

It is proved that for a symmetric convex body K in R^n, if for some tau > 0, |K cap (x+tau K)| depends on ||x||_K only, then K is an ellipsoid. As a part of the proof, smoothness properties of convolution bodies ls are studied.

We give a relation between the existence of a Zariski decomposition and the behavior of the restricted volume of a big divisor on a smooth (complex) projective variety. Moreover, we give an analytic description of the restricted volume in…
