Minkowski's 2nd theorem in the Geometry of Numbers provides optimal upper and lower bounds for the volume of a $o$-symmetric convex body in terms of its successive minima. In this paper we study extensions of this theorem from two different…
The Minkowski tensors are valuations on the space of convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with values in a space of symmetric tensors, having additional covariance and continuity properties. They are extensions of the intrinsic volumes, and as…
This paper is devoted to results on the Moser-Trudinger-Onofri inequality, or Onofri inequality for brevity. In dimension two this inequality plays a role similar to the Sobolev inequality in higher dimensions. After justifying this…
In this paper, we prove an isoperimetric inequality for the domain of dependence of a finite lightcone in the Minkowski spacetime of dimension greater than or equal to 3. The inequality involves two quantities: the volume of the domain of…
We consider effects of anisotropy on solitons of various types in two-dimensional nonlinear lattices, using the discrete nonlinear Schr{\"{o}}dinger equation as a paradigm model. For fundamental solitons, we develop a variational…
A description of continuous rigid motion compatible Minkowski valuations is established. As an application, we present a Brunn-Minkowski type inequality for intrinsic volumes of these valuations.
The classical Minkowski inequality implies that the volume of a bounded convex domain is controlled from above by the integral of the mean curvature of its boundary. In this note, we establish an analogous inequality without the convexity…

Minkowski tensors are comprehensive shape descriptors that robustly capture n-point information in complex random geometries and that have already been extensively applied in the Euclidean plane. Here, we devise a novel framework for…
We prove a sharp inequality for hypersurfaces in the n-dimensional Anti-deSitter-Schwarzschild manifold for general n greater or equal to 3. This inequality generalizes the classical Minkowski inequality for surfaces in the three…

In this manuscript, we investigate the oscillatory behaviour of the anisotropy in the diagonal Bianchi-I spacetimes. Our starting point is a simplification of Einstein's equations using only observable or physical variables. As a…
A (1+1)-dimensional quantum field theory with a degenerate vacuum (in infinite volume) can contain particles, known as kinks, which interpolate between different vacua and have nontrivial restrictions on their multi-particle Hilbert space.…
An anisotropic (Bianchi type I) cosmology is considered in the four-dimensional NS-NS sector of low-energy effective string theory coupled to a dilaton and an axion-like $H$-field within a de Sitter-Einstein frame background. The time…
Expansion of a locally equilibrated fluid is considered in an anisotropic space-time given by Bianchi type I metric. Starting from isotropic equilibrium phase-space distribution function in the local rest frame, we obtain expressions for…
A particular Finsler-metric proposed in [1,2] and describing a geometry with a preferred null direction is characterized here as belonging to a subclass contained in a larger class of Finsler-metrics with one or more preferred directions…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of N-dimensional generalized Minkowski space, i.e. a space endowed with a (in general non-diagonal) metric tensor, whose coefficients do depend on a set of non-metrical coodinates. This is the first…
The Minkowski functionals are useful statistics to quantify the morphology of various random fields. They have been applied to numerous analyses of geometrical patterns, including various types of cosmic fields, morphological image…
The genus statistics of isodensity contours has become a well-established tool in cosmology. In this Letter we place the genus in the wider framework of a complete family of morphological descriptors. These are known as the Minkowski…
Let us define, for a compact set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, the Minkowski averages of $A$: $$ A(k) = \left\{\frac{a_1+\cdots +a_k}{k} : a_1, \ldots, a_k\in A\right\}=\frac{1}{k}\Big(\underset{k\ {\rm times}}{\underbrace{A + \cdots +…
