We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Minkowski problem in any domain of dependence $D$ in $(2+1)$-dimensional Minkowski space, provided $D$ is contained in the future cone over a point. Namely, it is possible to find a…

We consider a class of diffusion problems defined on simple graphs in which the populations at any two vertices may be averaged if they are connected by an edge. The diffusion polytope is the convex hull of the set of population vectors…

The present note is a result of an on-going investigation into the logarithmic Brunn-Minkowski inequality. We obtain lower estimates on the volume product for convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ not necessarily symmetric with respect to the…

The main purpose of this note is to prove an upper bound on the number of lattice points of a centrally symmetric convex body in terms of the successive minima of the body. This bound improves on former bounds and narrows the gap towards a…

We prove stability estimates for the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for convex sets. Unlike existing stability results, our estimates improve as the dimension grows. Our results are equivalent to a thin shell bound, which is one of the central…

The random polytope $K_n$, defined as the convex hull of $n$ points chosen uniformly at random on the boundary of a smooth convex body, is considered. Proofs for lower and upper variance bounds, strong laws of large numbers and central…

A variational formula is derived by combining the Gaussian volume of the epigraph of a convex function $\varphi$ and the perturbation of $\varphi$ via the infimal convolution. This formula naturally leads to a Borel measure on…

Given a convex body $Q$ (structuring element) and a set $A$ in a Euclidean space, we consider the $Q$-Minkowski content of $A$. It is defined as the usual isotropic Minkowski content of $A$, but where the Euclidean ball is replaced by $Q$.…
