In this paper we introduce a combinatorial formula for the Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacity of a convex polytope in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. One application of this formula is a certain subadditivity property of this capacity.
We show that the rate of convergence on the approximation of volumes of a convex symmetric polytope P in R^n by its dual L_{p$-centroid bodies is independent of the geometry of P. In particular we show that if P has volume 1,…
We give a method for computing upper and lower bounds for the volume of a non-obtuse hyperbolic polyhedron in terms of the combinatorics of the 1-skeleton. We introduce an algorithm that detects the geometric decomposition of good…
In this note, a new method for deriving the volume of hypersphere is proposed by using probability theory. The explicit expression of the multiple times convolution of the probability density functions we should use is very complicated. But…
Intrinsic volumes are fundamental geometric invariants generalizing volume, surface area, and mean width for convex bodies. We establish a unified Laplace-Grassmannian representation for intrinsic and dual volumes of convex polynomial…
We study the problem of covering a given set of $n$ points in a high, $d$-dimensional space by the minimum enclosing polytope of a given arbitrary shape. We present algorithms that work for a large family of shapes, provided either only…
Approximation problems involving a single convex body in $d$-dimensional space have received a great deal of attention in the computational geometry community. In contrast, works involving multiple convex bodies are generally limited to…
We consider an extended version of Horn's problem: given two orbits $\mathcal{O}_\alpha$ and $\mathcal{O}_\beta$ of a linear representation of a compact Lie group, let $A\in \mathcal{O}_\alpha$, $B\in \mathcal{O}_\beta$ be independent and…
Let m,n be positive integers. Define T(m,n) to be the transportation polytope consisting of the m x n non-negative real matrices whose rows each sum to 1 and whose columns each sum to m/n. The special case B(n)=T(n,n) is the much-studied…
In this paper, we propose two methods of calculating theoretically maximal metamer mismatch volumes. Unlike prior art techniques, our methods do not make any assumptions on the shape of spectra on the boundary of the mismatch volumes. Both…
Optimal packing of objects in containers is a critical problem in various real-life and industrial applications. This paper investigates the two-dimensional packing of convex polygons without rotations, where only translations are allowed.…

It is shown how the Beneath-and-Beyond algorithm can be used to yield another proof of the equivalence of V- and H-representations of convex polytopes. In this sense this paper serves as the sketch of an introduction to polytope theory with…
A method for calculating the pressure tensor in constant-volume Monte Carlo simulations of convex bodies is presented. In contrast to other approaches, the method requires only an isotropic scaling of the simulation box, and the counting of…
