At the heart of convex geometry lies the observation that the volume of convex bodies behaves as a polynomial. Many geometric inequalities may be expressed in terms of the coefficients of this polynomial, called mixed volumes. Among the…

This article is a survey of recent results on slicing inequalities for convex bodies. The focus is on the setting of arbitrary measures in place of volume.

We study the exact effect of the anisotropic convexity of domains on the boundary estimate for two Monge-Amp\`ere Equations: one is singular which is from the proper affine hyperspheres with constant mean curvature; the other is degenerate…

In this paper, we derive a number of interesting properties and extensions of the convex flow problem from the perspective of convex geometry. We show that the sets of allowable flows always can be imbued with a downward closure property,…

Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…

Differentiable structure ensures that many of the basics of classical convex analysis extend naturally from Euclidean space to Riemannian manifolds. Without such structure, however, extensions are more challenging. Nonetheless, in…

In this paper, we provide an affirmative answer to [16, Conjecture 1.5] on the Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality for quermassintegrals for convex capillary hypersurfaces in the Euclidean half-space. More generally, we establish a theory for…

We prove sum representations of Appell-Lauricella functions over a finite field using confluent hypergeometric functions over the finite field. As an application, we also prove transformation formulas, summation formulas and reduction…

The existence and multiplicity and nonexistence of nontrivial radial convex solutions of systems of Monge-Amp\`ere equations are established with superlinearity or sublinearity assumptions for an appropriately chosen parameter. The proof of…
