We establish estimates for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by polytopes under a notion of distance induced by the intrinsic volumes. We also introduce a notion of distance between convex bodies that is induced…

Recently D. Buchholz and R. Verch have proposed a method for implementing in algebraic quantum field theory ideas from renormalization group analysis of short-distance (high energy) behavior by passing to certain scaling limit theories.…

A conformally invariant model of two interacting massless particles in Minkowski space was proposed by Casalbuoni and Gomis [1]. We generalize this model to the case of de Sitter space from the perspective of geodesic distance, in such a…

In previous work, the authors established a generalized version of Schmidt's subspace theorem for closed subschemes in general position in terms of Seshadri constants. We extend our theorem to weighted sums involving closed subschemes in…

We observe that the $2$-norm distance $d_{U,2}$ between the unitary orbits of normal elements in a $\mathrm{II}_1$ factor $\mathcal{M}$ is equal to the $2$-Wasserstein distance between the spectral measures induced by the trace…

Penrose's Spin Geometry Theorem is extended further, from $SU(2)$ and $E(3)$ (Euclidean) to $E(1,3)$ (Poincar\'e) invariant elementary quantum mechanical systems. The Lorentzian spatial distance between any two non-parallel timelike…

We combine functional analytic and geometric viewpoints on approximate Birkhoff and isosceles orthogonality in generalized Minkowski spaces which are finite-dimensional vector spaces equipped with a gauge. This is the first approach to…

It is a classical fact, that given an arbitrary n-dimensional convex body, there exists an appropriate sequence of Minkowski symmetrizations (or Steiner symmetrizations), that converges in Hausdorff metric to a Euclidean ball. Here we…

Every graph G can be embedded in a Euclidean space as a two-distance set. This allows us to reformulate the analogue of Borsuk's conjecture for two-distance sets in terms of graphs. This conjecture remains open for dimensions from 4 to 63.…

In this paper, we study the anisotropic Minkowski problem. It is a problem of prescribing the anisotropic Gauss-Kronecker curvature for a closed strongly convex hypersurface in Euclidean space as a function on its anisotropic normals in…

In this short survey we want to present some of the impact of Minkowski's successive minima within Convex and Discrete Geometry. Originally related to the volume of an $o$-symmetric convex body, we point out relations of the successive…

Friedrich's proofs for the global existence results of de Sitter-like space-times and of semi-global existence of Minkowski-like space-times [Comm. Math. Phys. \textbf{107}, 587 (1986)] are re-examined and discussed, making use of the…

We formulate and prove a constant-curvature, holonomy-valued Lorentzian analogue of Minkowski theorem for generalized tetrahedra in the constant-curvature Lorentzian spaces ${\rm dS}^3$ and ${\rm AdS}^3$. Four non-trivial based ${\rm…

In this note we investigate some aspects of the local structure of finite dimensional $p$-Banach spaces. The well known theorem of Gluskin gives a sharp lower bound of the diameter of the Minkowski compactum. In [Gl] it is proved that…

We highlight the relation between the projective geometries of $n$-dimensional Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic spaces through the projective models of these spaces in the $n+1$-dimensional Minkowski space, using a cross ratio notion…

We establish a Positive Mass Theorem for initial data sets of the Einstein equations having generalized trapped surface boundary. In particular we answer a question posed by R. Wald concerning the existence of generalized apparent horizons…

Consider groups such as Mordell-Weil groups of abelian varieties over number fields, odd algebraic $K$-theory groups of number fields, or finitely generated subgroups of the multiplicative groups of number fields. They are all equipped with…

In this paper we provide an approximation \`a la Ambrosio-Tortorelli of some classical minimization problems involving the length of an unknown one-dimensional set, with an additional connectedness constraint, in dimension two. We introduce…

Stable de Sitter solutions in minimal F-term supergravity are known to lie close to Minkowski critical points. We consider a class of STU-models arising from type IIB compactifications with generalised fluxes. There, we apply an analytical…

For a convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ the mean distance $\Delta(K)=\mathbb{E}|X_1-X_2|$ is the expected Euclidean distance of two independent and uniformly distributed random points $X_1,X_2\in K$. Optimal lower and upper bounds for…
