If K' and K are convex bodies of the plane such that K' is a subset of K then the perimeter of K' is not greater than the perimeter of K. We obtain the following generalization of this fact. Let K be a convex compact body of the plane with…

The convex body isoperimetric conjecture in the plane asserts that the least perimeter to enclose given area inside a unit disk is greater than inside any other convex set of area $\pi$. In this note we confirm two cases of the conjecture:…

This article derives closed-form parametric formulas for the Minkowski sums of convex bodies in d-dimensional Euclidean space with boundaries that are smooth and have all positive sectional curvatures at every point. Under these conditions,…

Under mild assumptions on the kernel $K\ge0$, the non-local $K$-perimeter $P_K$ satisfies the monotonicity property on nested convex bodies, i.e., if $A\subset B\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ are two convex bodies, then $P_K(A)\le P_K(B)$. In this…

In this paper, we revisit the notion of length measures associated to planar closed curves. These are a special case of area measures of hypersurfaces which were introduced early on in the field of convex geometry. The length measure of a…

Pseudo-cones are a class of unbounded closed convex sets, not containing the origin. They admit a kind of polarity, called copolarity. With this, they can be considered as a counterpart to convex bodies containing the origin in the…

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in the interior of a convex body, i.e., a compact convex set in Euclidean space with interior points. We shall not impose any regularity…

We introduce two valuation-based deviations on convex bodies. Using a construction that allows us to associate to these deviations "intrinsic" pseudometrics, we establish various results which capture information about the underlying…

We prove Gaussian approximation theorems for specific $k$-dimensional marginals of convex bodies which possess certain symmetries. In particular, we treat bodies which possess a 1-unconditional basis, as well as simplices. Our results…

The radial mean bodies of parameter $p>-1$ of a convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ are radial sets introduced in [4] by Gardner and Zhang. They are known to be convex for $p\geq 0$. We prove that if $K \subseteq \mathbb R^2$ is a convex…

Similarly to the classic notion in $E^d$, a subset of a positive diameter below $\frac{\pi}{2}$ of a hemisphere of the sphere $S^d$ is called complete, provided adding any extra point increases its diameter. Complete sets are convex bodies…

The main goal of this paper is to present a series of inequalities connecting the surface area measure of a convex body and surface area measure of its projections and sections. We present a solution of a question from S. Campi, P.…

We prove that the length of the projection of the vector joining the centers of mass of a convex body on the plane and of its boundary to an arbitrary direction does not exceed $\frac{1}{6}$ of the body width in this direction. It follows…

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 study the lengths of curves passing through a fixed number of points on the boundary of a convex shape in the plane. We show that for any convex shape $K$, there exist four points on the boundary of $K$ such that the length of any curve…

We analyze aspects of the behavior of the family of inner parallel bodies of a convex body for the isoperimetric quotient and deficit of arbitrary quermassintegrals. By means of technical boundary properties of the so-called form body of a…

Let $K, D$ be $n$-dimensional convex bodes. Define the distance between $K$ and $D$ as $$ d(K,D) = \inf \{\lambda | T K \subset D+x \subset \lambda \cdot TK \}, $$ where the infimum is taken over all $x \in R^n$ and all invertible linear…

We provide an estimate of the distance (in the dual flat seminorm) of the normal cycles of convex bodies with given Hausdorff distance. We also give an estimate (in the bounded Lipschitz metric) of the support measures of convex bodies.

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R} ^d$, with $d = 2,3$. We determine sharp sufficient conditions for a set $E$ composed of $1$, $2$, or $3$ points of ${\rm bd}K$, to contain at least one endpoint of a diameter of $K$ (for $d=2,3$). We…

It is verified that the number of vertices in a $d$-dimensional cubical pseudomanifold is at least $2^{d+1}$. Using Adin's cubical $h$-vector, the generalized lower bound conjecture is established for all cubical 4-spheres, as well as for…
