We discuss notions of Gauss curvature and mean curvature for polyhedral surfaces. The discretizations are guided by the principle of preserving integral relations for curvatures, like the Gauss/Bonnet theorem and the mean-curvature force…

In 1974, Witsenhausen asked for the maximum possible density $\alpha_n$ of a measurable subset $A$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $A$ contains no pair of orthogonal vectors. For $n=3$, the best known…
