In this paper we prove some geometric inequalities for closed surfaces in Euclidean three-space. Motivated by Gage's inequality for convex curves, we first verify that for convex surfaces the Willmore energy is bounded below by some…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problem, presenting efficient algorithms with $O(n^3)$ running time and $O(n^2)$ space complexity that compute: (1) A subset $S$ of $P$…

In his recent research, the author improved the error term in the prime geodesic theorem for compact, even-dimensional, rank one locally symmetric spaces. It turned out that the obtained estimate $O(x^{2\rho-\frac{\rho}{n}}(\log x)^{-1})$…

For an integral convex polytope $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we recall $L_\mathcal{P}(n)=|n\mathcal{P} \cap \mathbb{Z}^d|$ the Ehrhart polynomial of $\mathcal{P}$. Let $g_r(\mathcal{P})$ be the $r$th coefficients of…

We show that the Carath\'eodory number for $H$-convexity is the maximum of two parameters: the Helly number for $H$-convexity and the cone number of $H$. The cone number in this article is defined as the maximal number of points of $H$ in…
