We prove a quantitative stability result for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality: if $|A|=|B|=1$, $t \in [\tau,1-\tau]$ with $\tau>0$, and $|tA+(1-t)B|^{1/n}\leq 1+\delta$ for some small $\delta$, then, up to a translation, both $A$ and $B$ are…

In this paper, we study linear forms \[\lambda = \beta_1\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_1}+\cdots+\beta_m\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_m},\] where $\alpha_i$ and $\beta_i$ are algebraic numbers. An explicit lower bound for the absolute value of $\lambda$ is…

Two numerical algorithms for analyzing planar central and balanced configurations in the $(n+1)$-body problem with a small mass are presented. The first one relies on a direct solution method of the $(n+1)$-body problem by using a…

Let $V$ be a symmetric convex body in $\R^m$. We prove sharp Bernstein-type inequalities for entire functions of exponential type with the spectrum in $V$ and discuss certain properties of the extremal functions. Markov-type inequalities…

A new intrinsic volume metric is introduced for the class of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$. As an application, an inequality is proved for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by arbitrarily positioned polytopes…

Following Santal\'{o}'s approach, we prove several characterizations of a disc among bodies of constant width, constant projections lengths, or constant section lengths on given families of geodesics.

We survey results on the problem of covering the space ${\mathbb R}^n$, or a convex body in it, by translates of a convex body. Our main goal is to present a diverse set of methods. A theorem of Rogers is a central result, according to…

A newly synthesized layered material C2N was investigated based on many- body perturbation theory using GW plus Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. The electronic band gap was determined to be ranging from 3.75 to 1.89 eV from monolayer to…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on a separable Banach space $X$. A subset $U\subset X$ is $\mu$-continuous if $\mu(\partial U)=0$. In the paper the $\mu$-continuity and uniform $\mu$-continuity of convex bodies in $X$, especially of…

We improve the upper bound for the maximum possible number of stable matchings among $n$ jobs and $n$ applicants from $131072^n+O(1)$ to $3.55^n+O(1)$. To establish this bound, we state a novel formulation of a certain entropy bound that is…

We extend Deuber's theorem on $(m,p,c)$-sets to hold over the multidimensional positive integer lattices. This leads to a multidimensional Rado theorem where we are guaranteed monochromatic multidimensional points in all finite colorings of…

We study the recently introduced boolean-width of graphs. Our structural results are as follows. Firstly, we show that almost surely the boolean-width of a random graph on $n$ vertices is $O(\log^2 n)$, and it is easy to find the…

In this paper we address the following shape optimization problem: find the planar domain of least area, among the sets with prescribed constant width and inradius. In the literature, the problem is ascribed to Bonnesen, who proposed it in…

An optimal constant-composition or constant-weight code of weight $w$ has linear size if and only if its distance $d$ is at least $2w-1$. When $d\geq 2w$, the determination of the exact size of such a constant-composition or constant-weight…

In 1975 Erd\H{o}s initiated the study of the following very natural question. What can be said about the chromatic number of unit distance graphs in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that have large girth? Over the years this question and its natural…

We use geometrical combinatorics arguments, including the ``hairbrush'' and x-ray arguments of Wolff and the sticky/plany/grainy analysis of Katz, Laba, and Tao, to show that Besicovitch sets in R^n have Minkowski dimension at least (n+2)/2…

We show that the occupation measure of planar Brownian motion exhibits a constant height gap of $5/\pi$ across its outer boundary. This property bears similarities with the celebrated results of Schramm--Sheffield [18] and Miller--Sheffield…

We study in details the bias and variance of the entropy estimator proposed by Kozachenko and Leonenko for a large class of densities on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We then use the work of Bickel and Breiman to prove a central limit theorem in…
