In this note we examine the volume of the convex hull of two congruent copies of a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space, under some subsets of the isometry group of the space. We prove inequalities for this volume if the two bodies are…

We investigate new convex relaxations for the pooling problem, a classic nonconvex production planning problem in which input materials are mixed in intermediate pools, with the outputs of these pools further mixed to make output products…

The natural logarithm can be represented by an infinite series that converges for all positive real values of the variable, and which makes concavity patently obvious. Concavity of the natural logarithm is known to imply, among other…

Let $\LL_{\bf v}\subset \Z^D$ be a suitable cone semigroup and $\A_{\bf v}$ its reduced semigroup $C^*$-algebra. In this paper, we compute the $\LL_{\bf v}$-invariant measures in the transversal hull of the semigroup $\LL_{\bf v}$ that…

We give a dimension formula for the space of logarithm-free series solutions to an A-hypergeometric (or a GKZ hypergeometric) system. In the case where the convex hull spanned by A is a simplex, we give a rank formula for the system,…

Jensen's inequality is ubiquitous in measure and probability theory, statistics, machine learning, information theory and many other areas of mathematics and data science. It states that, for any convex function $f\colon K \to \mathbb{R}$…

In this article, a new solution for the convex hull problem has been presented. The convex hull is a widely known problem in computational geometry. As nature is a rich source of ideas in the field of algorithms, the solution has been…

An orbitope is the convex hull of an orbit of a point under the action of a compact group. We derive bounds on volumes of sections of polar bodies of orbitopes, extending our previously developed methods. As an application we realize the…

We suggest a concept of generalized `angles' in arbitrary real normed vector spaces. We give for each real number a definition of an `angle' by means of the shape of the unit ball. They all yield the well known Euclidean angle in the…

Steinitz's theorem states that if a point $a \in \mathrm{int\,conv\,} X$ for a set $X \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then $X$ contains a subset $Y$ of size at most $2d$ such that $a \in \mathrm{int\,conv\,}Y$. The bound $2d$ is best possible here.…
