We present an isometric version of the complementably universal Banach space $\mathcal{B}$ with a monotone Schauder basis. The space $\mathcal{B}$ is isomorphic to Pe{\l}czy\'nski's space with a universal basis as well as to Kadec'…

The approximate Carath\'eodory problem in general form is as follows: Given two symmetric convex bodies $P,Q \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$, a parameter $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\mathbf{z} \in \textrm{conv}(X)$ with $X \subseteq P$, find…

A $\lambda$-convex body in a three-dimensional space form $M^3(c)$ of constant curvature $c$ is a compact convex set $K$ whose boundary $\partial K$ has normal curvatures bounded below by a constant $\lambda>0$ (in a weak sense). Within…

The convex body isoperimetric conjecture in the plane asserts that the least perimeter to enclose given area inside a unit disk is greater than inside any other convex set of area $\pi$. In this note we confirm two cases of the conjecture:…

It was conjectured by Levi, Hadwiger, Gohberg and Markus that the boundary of any convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ can be illuminated by at most $2^n$ light sources, and, moreover, $2^n-1$ light sources suffice unless the body is a…

We show that if the curvature of a Cartan-Hadamard $n$-manifold is constant near a convex hypersurface $\Gamma$, then the total Gauss-Kronecker curvature $\mathcal{G}(\Gamma)$ is not less than that of any convex hypersurface nested inside…

Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n. The k-curvature, for k=1,2,..n, is defined as the k-th elementary symmetric polynomial of the eigenvalues of the Schouten tenser. The k-Yamabe problem is to prove the existence of a…

A gauge $\gamma$ in a vector space $X$ is a distance function given by the Minkowski functional associated to a convex body $K$ containing the origin in its interior. Thus, the outcoming concept of gauge spaces $(X, \gamma)$ extends that of…

We prove the following isoperimetric-type inequality: for every convex body $K$ in $\mathbb R^n$ and some $\sigma\subset[n]:=\{1,\dots,n\}$ there exists a suitable Hanner polytope $B_K$ with the same volume as $K$ and such that the volume…

Let $V\subset\R^m$ be a centrally symmetric convex body and let $V^*\subset\R^m$ be its polar. We prove limit relations between the sharp constants in the multivariate Markov-Bernstein-Nikolskii type inequalities for algebraic polynomials…

The width of a closed convex subset of Euclidean space is the distance between two parallel supporting planes. The Blaschke-Lebesgue problem consists of minimizing the volume in the class of convex sets of fixed constant width and is still…

We show that, given an arbitrary shift, the lapse $N$ can be chosen so that the extrinsic curvature $K$ of the space slices with metric $\overline g$ in arbitrary coordinates of a solution of Einstein's equations satisfies a quasi-linear…

We establish variant Khintchine inequalities on normed spaces of Hanner type and cotype, in which the Rademacher distribution corresponding to classical Khintchine inequality is replaced by general symmetric distributions. The proof…

We generalize the hyperplane inequality in dimensions up to 4 to the setting of arbitrary measures in place of the volume. To prove this generalization we establish stability in the affirmative part of the solution to the Busemann-Petty…

It is proved that the simplex is a strict local minimum for the volume product, P(K)=min(vol(K) vol(K^z)), K^z is the polar body of K with respect to z, the minimum is taken over z in the interior of K, in the Banach-Mazur space of…

In this article, we introduce a notion of curvature, denoted by $ k_X(T)$, for a metric triple $T$ inside a (possibly discrete) metric space $X$. Such a notion enables us to consider curvature information of any metric space, including…

An almost K\"ahler structure is {\it extremal} if the Hermitian scalar curvature is a Killing potential [29]. When the almost complex structure is integrable it coincides with extremal K\"ahler metric in the sense of Calabi [8]. We observe…

Using an optimal containment approach, we quantify the asymmetry of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with respect to reflections across affine subspaces of a given dimension. We prove general inequalities relating these ''Minkowski…

It is known that any normed vector space which satisfies the parallelogram law is actually an inner product space. For finite dimensional normed vector spaces over R, we formulate an approximate version of this theorem: if a space…

On a convex bounded open set, we prove that Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from below in terms of the norm of the distance function in a suitable Lebesgue space. This generalizes a result…
