For a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb R^n$, the inequalities of Rogers-Shephard and Zhang, written succinctly, are $$\text{vol}_n(DK)\leq \binom{2n}{n} \text{vol}_n(K) \leq \text{vol}_n(n\text{vol}_n(K)\Pi^\circ K).$$ Here, $DK=\{x\in\mathbb…

Zhang's reverse affine isoperimetric inequality states that among all convex bodies $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, the affine invariant quantity $|K|^{n-1}|\Pi^*(K)|$ (where $\Pi^*(K)$ denotes the polar projection body of $K$) is minimized if…

The inequalities of Petty and Zhang are affine isoperimetric-type inequalities providing sharp bounds for $\text{vol}^{n-1}_{n}(K)\text{vol}_n(\Pi^\circ K),$ where $\Pi K$ is a projection body of a convex body $K$. In this paper, we present…

Given a hyperplane $H$ cutting a compact, convex body $K$ of positive Lebesgue measure through its centroid, Gr\"unbaum proved that $$\frac{|K\cap H^+|}{|K|}\geq \left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right)^n,$$ where $H^+$ is a half-space of boundary $H$.…

In this manuscript, we study the inequalities between measures of convex bodies implied by comparison of their projections and sections. Recently, Giannopoulos and Koldobsky proved that if convex bodies $K, L$ satisfy $|K|\theta^{\perp}|…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Let $ d_{n,n-1}(K)$ be the smallest possible density of a non-separable lattice of translates of $K$. In this paper we prove the estimate $d_{2,1}(K)\leq \frac{\pi\sqrt{3}}{8}$ for $K\subset…

In this paper we study various Rogers-Shephard type inequalities for the lattice point enumerator $\mathrm{G}_{n}(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, for any non-empty convex bounded sets $K,L\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, we show that…

We present an alternative approach to some results of Koldobsky on measures of sections of symmetric convex bodies, which allows us to extend them to the not necessarily symmetric setting. We prove that if $K$ is a convex body in ${\mathbb…

Let $1\leq i \leq k < n$ be integers. We prove the following exact inequalities for any convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with centroid at the origin, and any $k$-dimensional subspace $E\subset \mathbb{R}^n$: \begin{align*} &V_i \big(…

For a convex body $K\subset\R^n$ and $i\in\{1,...,n-1\}$, the function assigning to any $i$-dimensional subspace $L$ of $\R^n$, the $i$-dimensional volume of the orthogonal projection of $K$ to $L$, is called the $i$-th projection function…

We consider the problem of computing the minimum value $f_{\min,K}$ of a polynomial $f$ over a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, which can be reformulated as finding a probability measure $\nu$ on $K$ minimizing $\int_K f d\nu$.…

Let $K$ be a centrally-symmetric convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and let $\|\cdot\|$ be its induced norm on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We show that if $K \supseteq r B_2^n$ then: \[ \sqrt{n} M(K) \leqslant C \sum_{k=1}^{n} \frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}…

Every convex body K in R^n has a coordinate projection PK that contains at least vol(0.1 K) cells of the integer lattice PZ^n, provided this volume is at least one. Our proof of this counterpart of Minkowski's theorem is based on an…

We prove that for any $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there is a convex body $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ whose surface area is at most $n^{\frac12+o(1)}$, yet the translates of $K$ by the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$ tile $\mathbb{R}^n$.
