We extend the definition of the centroid body operator to an Orlicz--Lorentz centroid body operator on the star bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, and establish the sharp affine isoperimetric inequality that bounds (from below) the volume of the…

We provide a sharp rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for random vectors with an unconditional, log-concave density. The argument relies on analysis of the Neumann laplacian on convex domains and on the theory of optimal…

Let C = C(l_1, ..., l_n) be the n-dimensional orthogonal cross-polytope whose axes are of length l_1,..., l_n. Subject to the condition \sum l_i^2 = 1, the mean width of C is minimised when l_i = 1/sqrt{n} for every i, and it is maximised…

We obtain new sharp isoperimetric inequalities on a Riemannian manifold equipped with a probability measure, whose generalized Ricci curvature is bounded from below (possibly negatively), and generalized dimension and diameter of the convex…

In this survey article we will consider universal lower bounds on the volume of a Riemannian manifold, given in terms of the volume of lower dimensional objects (primarily the lengths of geodesics). By `universal' we mean without curvature…

The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body and for a class of uniformly log-concave measures (that we introduce). These inequalities imply (up to universal constants) the log-Sobolev inequalities…

The Blaschke-Santal\'o Inequality is the assertion that the volume product of a centrally symmetric convex body in Euclidean space is maximized by (and only by) ellipsoids. In this paper we give a Fourier analytic proof of this fact.

A quantitative version of Minkowski sum, extending the definition of $\theta$-convolution of convex bodies, is studied to obtain extensions of the Brunn-Minkowski and Zhang inequalities, as well as, other interesting properties on Convex…

On some specified convex supporting sets of spheres, we find a generalized longitude function whose level sets are totally geodesic. Given an arbitrary (weakly) harmonic map into spheres, the composition of the generalized longitude…

We establish the log-concavity of the volume of central sections of dilations of the cross-polytope (the strong B-inequality for the cross-polytope and Lebesgue measure restricted to an arbitrary subspace).

We give an example of a convex body whose centroid and Santal\'o point are "far apart".

A new inequality between angles in inner product spaces is formulated and proved. It leads directly to a concise statement and proof of the generalized Wielandt inequality, including a simple description of all cases of equality. As a…

In 1960 Gr\"unbaum asked whether for any finite mass in $\mathbb{R}^d$ there are $d$ hyperplanes that cut it into $2^d$ equal parts. This was proved by Hadwiger (1966) for $d\le3$, but disproved by Avis (1984) for $d\ge5$, while the case…

Given a symmetric convex body $C$ and $n$ hyperplanes in an Euclidean space, there is a translate of a multiple of $C$, at least ${1\over n+1}$ times as large, inside $C$, whose interior does not meet any of the hyperplanes. The result…

Certain triangle inequalities involving the circumradius, inradius, and side lengths of a triangle are generalized to spherical and hyperbolic geometry. Examples include strengthenings of Euler's inequality, $R\geq2r$. An extension of…

We study geometric inequalities for the circumradius and diameter with respect to general gauges, partly also involving the inradius and the Minkowski asymmetry. There are a number of options for defining the diameter of a convex body that…

There are at least two directions concerning the extension of classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality: (1) Extending the sharp inequality on general manifolds; (2) Extending it for the negative exponent $\lambda=n-\alpha$ (that…

Star-shaped bodies are an important nonconvex generalization of convex bodies (e.g., linear programming with violations). Here we present an efficient algorithm for sampling a given star-shaped body. The complexity of the algorithm grows…

Extensions and generalizations of Alzer's inequality; which is of Wirtinger type are proved. As applications, sharp trapezoid type inequality and sharp bound for the geometric mean are deduced.
