For a convex body $K\subset\R^n$, the $k$th projection function of $K$ assigns to any $k$-dimensional linear subspace of $\R^n$ the $k$-volume of the orthogonal projection of $K$ to that subspace. Let $K$ and $K_0$ be convex bodies in…

In this work we prove the following: let $K$ be a convex body in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, contained in the interior of the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and let $p\in \mathbb{R}^n$ be a point such that, from each point…

We study the volume ratio between projections of two convex bodies. Given a high-dimensional convex body $K$ we show that there is another convex body $L$ such that the volume ratio between any two projections of fixed rank of the bodies…

An infinitely smooth symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ is called $k$-separably integrable, $1\leq k<d$, if its $k$-dimensional isotropic volume function $V_{K,H}(t)=\mathcal H^d(\{\boldsymbol x\in K:\mathrm{dist}(\boldsymbol…

The aim of this note is to investigate the properties of the convex hull and the homothetic convex hull functions of a convex body $K$ in Euclidean $n$-space, defined as the volume of the union of $K$ and one of its translates, and the…

In this work we prove the following result: Let $K$ be a strictly convex body in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n, n\geq 3$, and let $L$ be a hypersurface, which is the image of an embedding of the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, such that $K$…

Let $H$ be a hypersurface in $\mathbb R^n$ and let $\pi$ be an orthogonal projection in $\mathbb R^n$ restricted to $H$. We say that $H$ satisfies the $Archimedean$ $projection$ $property$ corresponding to $\pi$ if there exists a constant…

In this work we present a theorem regarding two convex bodies $K_1, K_2\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq 3$, and two families of sections of them, given by two families of tangent planes of two spheres $S_i\subset \textrm{int}\textrm{ } K_i$,…

It is proved that if $C$ is a convex body in ${\Bbb R}^n$ then $C$ has an affine image $\widetilde C$ (of non-zero volume) so that if $P$ is any 1-codimensional orthogonal projection, $$|P\widetilde C| \ge |\widetilde C|^{n-1\over n}.$$ It…

The $k$th projection function $v_k(K,\cdot)$ of a convex body $K\subset {\mathbb R}^d, d\ge 3,$ is a function on the Grassmannian $G(d,k)$ which measures the $k$-dimensional volume of the projection of $K$ onto members of $G(d,k)$. For…
