A classical result of Dowker (Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 50: 120-122, 1944) states that for any plane convex body $K$, the areas of the maximum (resp. minimum) area convex $n$-gons inscribed (resp. circumscribed) in $K$ is a concave (resp.…

Lewis and Vogel proved that a bounded domain whose Poisson kernel is constant and whose surface measure to the boundary has at most Euclidean growth is a ball. In this paper we show that this result is stable under small perturbations. In…

We carry out a systematic investigation on floating bodies in real space forms. A new unifying approach not only allows us to treat the important classical case of Euclidean space as well as the recent extension to the Euclidean unit…

A new intrinsic volume metric is introduced for the class of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$. As an application, an inequality is proved for the asymptotic best approximation of the Euclidean unit ball by arbitrarily positioned polytopes…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We show that $M$ is Gromov-Hausdorff close to a convex Euclidean region $D$ of the same dimension if the boundary distance function of $M$ is $C^1$-close to that of $D$. More…

We prove that if the shape of the metric unit ball in a homogeneous group enjoys a precise symmetry property, then the associated distance yields the standard form of the area formula. The result applies to some classes of smooth and…

We prove that every Einstein metric on the unit ball B^4 of C^2, asymptotic to the Bergman metric, is equal to it up to a diffeomorphism. We need a solution of Seiberg--Witten equations in this infinite volume setting. Therefore, and more…

For a finite set $U$ of directions in the Euclidean plane, a convex non-degenerate polygon $P$ is called a $U$-polygon if every line parallel to a direction of $U$ that meets a vertex of $P$ also meets another vertex of $P$. We characterize…

One of the fundamental results in Convex Geometry is Busemann's theorem, which states that the intersection body of a symmetric convex body is convex. Thus, it is only natural to ask if there is a quantitative version of Busemann's theorem,…
