We survey elementary results in Minkowski spaces (i.e. finite dimensional Banach spaces) that deserve to be collected together, and give simple proofs for some of them. We place special emphasis on planar results. Many of these results have…

We discuss the smoothness and strict convexity of the solution of the $L_p$ Minkowski problem when $p<1$ and the given measure has a positive density function.

The object of study of this article is compact surfaces in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space with a positive-definite second fundamental form. It is shown that several conditions on the Gaussian curvature of the second fundamental form…

Spacelike surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space L^3 can be endowed with two different Riemannian metrics, the metric inherited from L^3 and the one induced by the Euclidean metric of R^3. It is well known that the only surfaces with zero…

We study points of density 1/2 of sets of finite perimeter in infinite-dimensional Gaussian spaces and prove that, as in the finite-dimensional theory, the surface measure is concentrated on this class of points. Here density 1/2 is…

It is a classical fact, that given an arbitrary n-dimensional convex body, there exists an appropriate sequence of Minkowski symmetrizations (or Steiner symmetrizations), that converges in Hausdorff metric to a Euclidean ball. Here we…

This thesis consists of five papers about reduced spherical convex bodies and in particular spherical bodies of constant width on the $d$-dimensional sphere $S^d$. In paper I we present some facts describing the shape of reduced bodies of…

In an earlier paper \cite{mazeng} the authors introduced the notion of curvature entropy, and proved the plane log-Minkowski inequality of curvature entropy under the symmetry assumption. In this paper we demonstrate the plane log-Minkowski…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of hyperbolic type. We show that, for every pair $(g_+,g_-)$ of negatively curved metrics over $S$ there exists a unique GHMC Minkowski spacetime $X$ into which $(S,g_+)$ and $(S,g_-)$ isometrically embed as…

We construct surface measures associated to Gaussian measures in separable Banach spaces, and we prove several properties including an integration by parts formula.

In Euclidean space, the generalised Minkowski problem asks, for a given finite Radon measure $\mu$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$, to find a compact convex set $K$ with area measure $\mu$. For convex sets in the Minkowski space invariant…

We investigate the differences and similarities of the Dirichlet problem of the mean curvature equation in the Euclidean space and in the Lorentz-Minkowski space. Although the solvability of the Dirichlet problem follows standards…

We propose a discrete approach for approximating solutions to the prescribed Gaussian curvature problem in two-dimensional manifolds, based on the notion of discrete conformality. Our approach provides an efficient numerical method to…

In this paper we study the problem, posed by Troyanov, of prescribing the Gaussian curvature under a conformal change of the metric on surfaces with conical singularities. Such geometrical problem can be reduced to the solvability of a…

We investigate elementary properties of successive radii in generalized Minkowski spaces (that is, with respect to gauges), i.e., we measure the "size" of a given convex set in a finite-dimensional real vector space with respect to another…

A generalization of pairwise intersecting Minkowski arrangement of centrally symmetric convex bodies is the pairwise intersecting Minkowski arrangement of order $\mu$. Here, the homothetic copies of a centrally symmetric convex body are so…
