We introduce a class of metrics on $\mathbb{R}^n$ generalizing the classical Grushin plane. These are length metrics defined by the line element $ds = d_E(\cdot,Y)^{-\beta}ds_E$ for a closed nonempty subset $Y \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and…

One of the most important problems in Geometric Tomography is to establish properties of a given convex body if we know some properties over its sections or its projections. There are many interesting and deep results that provide…

Following the success of Word2Vec embeddings, graph embeddings (GEs) have gained substantial traction. GEs are commonly generated and evaluated extrinsically on downstream applications, but intrinsic evaluations of the original graph…

We develop, in the context of general relativity, the notion of a geoid -- a surface of constant "gravitational potential". In particular, we show how this idea naturally emerges as a specific choice of a previously proposed, more general…

This work introduces ``generalized meshes", a type of meshes suited for the discretization of partial differential equations in non-regular geometries. Generalized meshes extend regular simplicial meshes by allowing for overlapping elements…

We study the geometric knapsack problem in which we are given a set of $d$-dimensional objects (each with associated profits) and the goal is to find the maximum profit subset that can be packed non-overlappingly into a given…

As set systems, hypergraphs are omnipresent and have various representations ranging from Euler and Venn diagrams to contact representations. In a geometric representation of a hypergraph $H=(V,E)$, each vertex $v\in V$ is associated with a…

In [Sau11,SPW13], Saunderson, Parrilo and Willsky asked the following elegant geometric question: what is the largest $m= m(d)$ such that there is an ellipsoid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that passes through $v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_m$ with high…

In the paper we consider convex cones in infinite-dimensional real vector spaces which are endowed with no topology. The main purpose is to study an internal geometric structure of convex cones and to obtain an analytical description of…
