The Blaschke-Lebesgue Theorem states that among all planar convex domains of given constant width B the Reuleaux triangle has minimal area. It is the purpose of the present note to give a direct proof of this theorem by analyzing the…
In this paper we prove an extension of the Blaschke-Lebesgue theorem for a family of convex domains called disk-polygons. Also, this provides yet another new proof of the Blaschke-Lebesgue theorem.
The sensitivity of the areas of Reuleaux polygons and disk polygons is computed with respect to vertex perturbations. Computations are completed for both constrained and Lagrangian formulations and they imply that the only critical Reuleaux…
The mixed area of a Reuleaux polygon and its symmetric with respect to the origin is expressed in terms of the mixed area of two explicit polygons. This gives a geometric explanation of a classical proof due to Chakerian. Mixed areas and…
We prove that among all constant width bodies of revolution, the minimum of the ratio of the volume to the cubed width is attained by the constant width body obtained by rotation of the Reuleaux triangle about an axis of symmetry.
We generalize the classical Blaschke Rolling Theorem to convex domains in Riemannian manifolds of bounded sectional curvature and arbitrary dimension. Our results are sharp and, in this sharp form, are new even in the model spaces of…
The first main result presented in the paper shows that the perimeters of inner parallel sets of planar shapes having a given constant width are minimal for the Reuleaux triangles. This implies that the areas of inner parallel sets and,…
For a convex domain $D$ that is enclosed by the hypersurface $\partial D$ of bounded normal curvature, we prove an angle comparison theorem for angles between $\partial D$ and geodesic rays starting from some fixed point in $D$, and the…
In this paper we present another proof of the analytic version of the Hahn-Banach theorem in terms of convex functionals.
The aim of this short note is to present an elementary, self-contained, and direct proof for the classical Lebesgue decomposition theorem.
We give a simple proof of the Baillon-Haddad theorem for convex functions defined on open and convex subsets of Hilbert spaces. We also state some generalizations and limitations. In particular, we discuss equivalent characterizations of…
This paper contains a new elementary proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus for the Lebesgue integral. The hardest part of our proof simply concerns the convergence in ${\rm L}^1$ of a certain sequence of step functions, and we prove…
A multivariate Gauss-Lucas theorem is proved, sharpening and generalizing previous results on this topic. The theorem is stated in terms of a seemingly new notion of convexity. Applications to multivariate stable polynomials are given.
In this short note a new proof of the monotone con- vergence theorem of Lebesgue integral on \sigma-class is given.
The width of a closed convex subset of Euclidean space is the distance between two parallel supporting planes. The Blaschke-Lebesgue problem consists of minimizing the volume in the class of convex sets of fixed constant width and is still…
We consider higher-dimensional analogues of the classical Brauer-Siegel theorem focusing on the case of abelian varieties over global function fields. We prove such an analogue in the case of constant families of elliptic curves and abelian…
An elementary proof of a quantitative version of the Riemann-Lebesgue lemma for functions supported on the half line is given. Applications to differential models with memory are discussed.
In this paper we prove a new extremal property of the Reuleaux triangle: it maximizes the Cheeger constant among all bodies of (same) constant width. The proof relies on a fine analysis of the optimality conditions satisfied by an optimal…
In the paper, new estimates of the Lebesgue constant $$ \mathcal{L}(W)=\frac1{(2\pi)^d}\int_{\mathbb{T}^d}\bigg|\sum_{{k}\in W\cap \mathbb{Z}^d} e^{i({k},\,{x})}\bigg| {\rm d}{ x} $$ for convex polyhedra $W\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ are obtained.…
A proof of the continuous martingale convergence theorem is provided. It relies on a classical martingale inequality and the almost sure convergence of a uniformly bounded non-negative super-martingale, after a truncation argument.
