Let $H$ be a Hilbert space. For a closed convex body $A$ denote by $r(A)$ the supremum of radiuses of balls, contained in $A$. We prove, that $\sum_{n=1}^\infty r(A_n) \ge r(A)$ for every covering of a convex closed body $A \subset H$ by a…

Let $E_d(n)$ be the maximum number of pairs that can be selected from a set of $n$ points in $R^d$ such that the midpoints of these pairs are convexly independent. We show that $E_2(n)\geq \Omega(n\sqrt{\log n})$, which answers a question…

We study convex polyhedra in $\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^3$ with all their vertices on a sphere. We do not require, in particular, that the polyhedra lie in the interior of the sphere, hence the term "weakly inscribed". Such polyhedra can be…

The Brunn-Minkowski theory in convex geometry concerns, among other things, the volumes, mixed volumes, and surface area measures of convex bodies. We study generalizations of these concepts to Borel measures with density in…

The theory of coconvex bodies was formalized by A.~Khovanski{\u\i} and V.~Timorin in \cite{KT}. It has fascinating relations with the classical theory of convex bodies, as well as applications to Lorentzian geometry. In a recent preprint…

Pogorelov's rigidity theorem states that a compact convex body in the hyperbolic 3-space is determined up to isometry by the intrinsic path metric on its boundary. The main result of this paper addresses a rigidity problem for non-compact…

We show that smooth and strongly convex bodies in the symplectic $\mathbb R^{2n}$ for $n>1$ with all characteristics planar, or all outer billiard trajectories planar are affine symplectic images of balls.

A closed hyperbolic 3-manifold is exceptional if its shortest geodesic does not have an embedded tube of radius $\ln(3)/2$. D. Gabai, R. Meyerhoff and N. Thurston identified seven families of exceptional manifolds in their proof of the…

Given a monotone convex function on the space of essentially bounded random variables with the Lebesgue property (order continuity), we consider its extension preserving the Lebesgue property to as big solid vector space of random variables…

We derive tight expressions for the maximum number of $k$-faces, $0\le k\le d-1$, of the Minkowski sum, $P_1+P_2+P_3$, of three $d$-dimensional convex polytopes $P_1$, $P_2$ and $P_3$, as a function of the number of vertices of the…

Let K be a convex body in $R^d$. A random polytope is the convex hull $[x_1,...,x_n]$ of finitely many points chosen at random in K. $\Bbb E(K,n)$ is the expectation of the volume of a random polytope of n randomly chosen points. I.…

The collection $\frk{C}_3$ of all triples of commuting contractions forms a family in the sense of Agler, and so has an "optimal" model $\pd\frk{C}_3$ generated by its extremal elements. A given $T\in\frk{C}_3$ is extremal if every…

The renormalized volume is a smooth function associating to every convex co-compact hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ a real number. When the boundary of $M$ is incompressible, the renormalized volume is always positive, otherwise there are…
