We study the volume functional on the space of constant scalar curvature metrics with a prescribed boundary metric. We derive a sufficient and necessary condition for a metric to be a critical point, and show that the only domains in space…
Recently, Bo'az Klartag showed that arbitrary convex bodies have Gaussian marginals in most directions. We show that Klartag's quantitative estimates may be improved for many uniformly convex bodies. These include uniformly convex bodies…
We prove that for any nonlinear $f \in C^{1,\alpha}([0,1])$, the union of lines covering its graph has a Hausdorff dimension of at least $1+\alpha$, and this dimension bound is sharp. We then apply these geometric results to mathematical…
A subset of a convex body $B$ containing the origin in a Euclidean space is {\it parkable in $B$} if it can be translated inside $B$ in such a manner that the translate the origin. We provide characterizations of ellipsoids and of centrally…
In this work we solve a couple of well known open problems related to the quasihyperbolic metric. In the case of planar domains, our first main result states that quasihyperbolic geodesics are unique in simply connected domains. As the…
Given an Euclidean space, this paper elucidates the topological link between the partial derivatives of the Minkowski functional associated to a set (assumed to be compact, convex, with a differentiable boundary and a non-empty interior)…
Let $C$ be a convex body and let $S$ be a nondegenerate simplex in ${\mathbb R}^n$. Denote by $\xi(C;S)$ the minimal $\tau>0$ such that $C$ is a subset of the simplex $\tau S$. By $\alpha(C;S)$ we mean the minimal $\tau>0$ such that $C$ is…
A centrally symmetric convex body is a convex compact set with non-empty interior that is symmetric about the origin. Of particular interest are those that are both smooth and strictly convex -- known here as regular symmetric bodies --…
We prove that the boundary of a component $U$ of the basin of an attracting periodic cycle (of period greater than 1) for an exponential map on the complex plane has Hausdorff dimension greater than 1 and less than 2. Moreover, the set of…
Let $f$ be a nonzero holomorphic function in the unit ball $\mathbb B$ of the $n$-dimensional complex Euclidean space $\mathbb C^n$ such that the function $f$ vanishes on the set ${\sf Z}\subset \mathbb B$ and satisfies the constraint…
We prove that the Euclidean ball can be realized as a Fatou component of a holomorphic automorphism of $\mathbb{C}^m$, in particular as the escaping and the oscillating wandering domain. Moreover, the same is true for a large class of…
In this note we examine the volume of the convex hull of two congruent copies of a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space, under some subsets of the isometry group of the space. We prove inequalities for this volume if the two bodies are…
We establish uniformization results for metric spaces that are homeomorphic to the euclidean plane or sphere and have locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. Applying the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we give a necessary and…
We prove the plasticity of the unit ball of $c$. That is, we show that every non-expansive bijection from the unit ball of $c$ onto itself is an isometry. We also demonstrate a slightly weaker property for the unit ball of $c_0$ -- we prove…
It is shown (Theorem A and its corollary) that if g is any nonconstant nonunivalent analytic function on a half-plane H and if D is either a half-plane or a smoothly bounded Jordan domain, then there is a function f on D for which f'(D)…
We prove that an arbitrary convex body $C \subseteq \mathbf{R}^{n+1} $, whose $ k $-th anisotropic curvature measure (for $ k =0, \ldots , n-1 $) is a multiple constant of the anisotropic perimeter of C, must be a rescaled and translated…
It is proved that if $u_1,\ldots, u_n$ are vectors in ${\Bbb R}^k, k\le n, 1 \le p < \infty$ and $$r = ({1\over k} \sum ^n_1 |u_i|^p)^{1\over p}$$ then the volume of the symmetric convex body whose boundary functionals are $\pm u_1,\ldots,…
We consider the volume of a Boolean expression of some congruent balls about a given system of centers in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. When the radius $r$ of the balls is large, this volume can be approximated by a polynomial of…
We explore convex shapes $S$ in the Euclidean plane which have the following property: there is a circle $C$ such that the angle between the two tangents from any point of $C$ to $S$ is constant equal to $\alpha$. A dynamical formulation…
We prove that a strongly pseudoconvex domain with noncompact group of Kobayashi/Royden metric isometries must be biholomorphic to the unit ball.
