Gr\"unbaum's inequality guarantees that the centroid of a convex body has halfspace depth at least $1/e$: every halfspace containing the centroid captures at least a $1/e$ fraction of the body's volume. For mixed-integer convex sets…

In this paper we study geometric coincidence problems in the spirit of the following problems by B. Gr\"unbaum: How many affine diameters of a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ must have a common point? How many centers (in some sense) of…

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 determine the maximal hyperplane sections of the regular $n$-simplex, if the distance of the hyperplane to the centroid is fairly large, i.e. larger than the distance of the centroid to the midpoint of edges. Similar results for the…

We prove a generalization of the hyperplane inequality for intersection bodies, where volume is replaced by an arbitrary measure $\mu$ with even continuous density and sections are of arbitrary dimension $n-k,\ 1\le k <n.$ If $K$ is a…
