We construct a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 5$, with the property that there is exactly one hyperplane $H$ passing through $c(K)$, the centroid of $K$, such that the centroid of $K\cap H$ coincides with $c(K)$. This provides…

It is a classical fact, that given an arbitrary n-dimensional convex body, there exists an appropriate sequence of Minkowski symmetrizations (or Steiner symmetrizations), that converges in Hausdorff metric to a Euclidean ball. Here we…

In this short note we explain why the log-Brunn-Minkowski conjecture is correct for complex convex bodies. We do this by relating the conjecture to the notion of complex interpolation, and appealing to a general theorem by…

We provide a proof of effective uniformization for nearly round 2-spheres, utilizing an identity related to the third-order differential of the conformal factor. This identity is connected to the geometry of the embedded spacelike surface…

We prove that if $K$ is a symmetric and isotropic convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$, then $$\int_K\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\int_{K^\circ}\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\leq \left(\int_{B_2^n}\langle x,u\rangle^2\,dx\right)^2,\qquad\forall…

In order to approach the pion--multinucleon problem, we have found it convenient to reformulate the general N--body theory starting from the fully unclusterized (i.e., N <- N) amplitude. If we rewrite such an amplitude in terms of new…

We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…

We derive a formula connecting the derivatives of parallel section functions of an origin-symmetric star body in R^n with the Fourier transform of powers of the radial function of the body. A parallel section function (or (n-1)-dimensional…

In the present paper we initiate the study of the Musielak-Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for convex bodies. In particular, we develop the Musielak-Orlicz-Gauss image problem aiming to characterize the Musielak-Orlicz-Gauss image measure of…

We investigate the motion of a massless body interacting with the Maxwell relative equilibrium, which consists of n bodies of equal mass at the vertices of a regular polygon that rotates around a central mass. The massless body has three…

We perform an analytical study of the bifurcation of the halo orbits around the collinear points $L_1$, $L_2$, $L_3$ for the circular, spatial, restricted three--body problem. Following a standard procedure, we reduce to the center manifold…

We study the Dirac equation coupled to scalar and vector Klein-Gordon fields in the limit of strong coupling and large masses of the fields. We prove convergence of the solutions to those of a cubic non-linear Dirac equation, given that the…

The Lp-Brunn-Minkowski inequality palys a central role in the Brunn-Minkowski theory proposed by Firey [13] in 60's and developed by Lutwak [26,27] in 90's, which generalizes the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality by Lp-sum of convex…

We consider cosmological models where the universe, governed by Einstein's equations, is a piece of a five dimensional double-sided anti-de Sitter spacetime (that is, a "$Z_2$-symmetric bulk") with matter confined to its four dimensional…

Let $K$ be a convex body in an affine chart of the $n$ dimensional real Projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$, $n \geq 3$, let $H$ be a hyperplane which is not a support hyperplane of $K$ and let $p_1,p_2 \in \mathbb{RP}^n \setminus H$ be two…

We characterize the surjective isometries, with respect to the Hausdorff distance, of the class of bodies given by intersections of Euclidean unit balls. We show that any such isometry is given by the composition of a rigid motion with…

For $-1<p<1$ we introduce the concept of a polar $p$-centroid body ${\Gamma^*_p K}$ of a star body $K$. We consider the question of whether ${\Gamma^*_p K}\subset {\Gamma^*_p L}$ implies $\mathrm{vol}(L)\le \mathrm{vol}(K).$ Our results…

The Bethe-Brueckner-Goldstone many-body theory of the Nuclear Equation of State is reviewed in some details. In the theory, one performs an expansion in terms of the Brueckner two-body scattering matrix and an ordering of the corresponding…

The Lidov-Kozai mechanism allows a body to periodically exchange its eccentricity with inclination. It was first discussed in the framework of the quadrupolar secular restricted three-body problem, where the massless particle is the inner…

We introduce the mixed convolution bodies of two convex symmetric bodies. We prove that if the boundary of a body $K$ is smooth enough then as $\delta$ tends to $1$ the $\delta$--$M^*$--convolution body of $K$ with itself tends to a…
