We provide a characterization of the radii minimal projections of polytopes onto $j$-dimensional subspaces in Euclidean space $\E^n$. Applied on simplices this characterization allows to reduce the computation of an outer radius to a…
We show that metrics that maximize the k-th Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces with boundary arise from free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball. We prove several properties of the volumes of these minimal submanifolds. For free boundary…
The fact that minimal surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space admit natural parameters implies that any minimal surface is determined uniquely up to a motion by two curvature functions, satisfying a system of two PDE's (the system…
We prove that every plane passing through the origin divides an embedded compact free boundary minimal surface of the euclidean $3$-ball in exactly two connected surfaces. We also show that if a region in the ball has mean convex boundary…
In this paper, we study several important geometric optimization problems arising in machine learning. First, we revisit the Minimum Enclosing Ball (MEB) problem in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$. The problem has been extensively studied…
In the present work, the problem about shadow, generalized on domains of space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\le 3$, is investigated. Here the shadow problem means to find the minimal number of balls satisfying some conditions an such that every line…
The smallest enclosing circle problem introduced in the 19th century by J. J. Sylvester [20] aks for the circle of smallest radius enclosing a given set of finite points in the plane. An extension of the smallest enclosing circle problem…
We investigate the intersections of balls of radius $r$, called $r$-ball bodies, in Euclidean $d$-space. An $r$-lense (resp., $r$-spindle) is the intersection of two balls of radius $r$ (resp., balls of radius $r$ containing a given pair of…

The problem of covering a region of the plane with a fixed number of minimum-radius identical balls is studied in the present work. An explicit construction of bi-Lipschitz mappings is provided to model small perturbations of the union of…
The paper is devoted to some extremal problems, related to convex polygons in the Euclidean plane and their perimeters. We present a number of results that have simple formulations, but rather intricate proofs. Related and still unsolved…
We study a variational problem for the perimeter associated with the Grushin plane, called minimal partition problem with trace constraint. This consists in studying how to enclose three prescribed areas in the Grushin plane, using the…
We raise and investigate the following problem that one can regard as a very close relative of the densest sphere packing problem. If the Euclidean 3-space is partitioned into convex cells each containing a unit ball, how should the shapes…
We consider the Dirichlet problem for semilinear elliptic equations on a bounded domain which is diffeomorphic to a ball and investigate bifurcation from a given (trivial) branch of solutions, where the radius of the ball serves as…
The paper studies a geometrically robust least-squares problem that extends classical and norm-based robust formulations. Rather than minimizing residual error for fixed or perturbed data, we interpret least-squares as enforcing approximate…
We study periodic tessellations of the Euclidean space with unequal cells arising from the minimization of perimeter functionals. Existence results and qualitative properties of minimizers are discussed for different classes of problems,…
