We study the problem of reconstructing a convex body using only a finite number of measurements of outer normal vectors. More precisely, we suppose that the normal vectors are measured at independent random locations uniformly distributed…

In the course of classifying generic sparse polynomial systems which are solvable in radicals, Esterov recently showed that the volume of the Minkowski sum $P_1+\dots+P_d$ of $d$-dimensional lattice polytopes is bounded from above by a…

The support measures of a convex body are a common generalization of the curvature measures and the area measures. With respect to the Hausdorff metric on the space of convex bodies, they are weakly continuous. We provide a quantitative…

We show that for any log-concave measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, any pair of symmetric convex sets $K$ and $L$, and any $\lambda\in [0,1],$ $$\mu((1-\lambda) K+\lambda L)^{c_n}\geq (1-\lambda) \mu(K)^{c_n}+\lambda\mu(L)^{c_n},$$ where…

A generalization of pairwise intersecting Minkowski arrangement of centrally symmetric convex bodies is the pairwise intersecting Minkowski arrangement of order $\mu$. Here, the homothetic copies of a centrally symmetric convex body are so…

In this paper, we show that if $L_p$ Gaussian surface area measure is proportional to the spherical Lebesgue measure, then the corresponding convex body has to be a centered disk when $p\in[0,1)$. Moreover, we investigate $C^0$ estimate of…

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in the interior of a conically bounded convex set, i.e., an unbounded convex body admitting an \emph{exterior} asymptotic cone. Results…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body and for a class of uniformly log-concave measures (that we introduce). These inequalities imply (up to universal constants) the log-Sobolev inequalities…

For a collection of convex bodies $P_1,\dots,P_n \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ containing the origin, a Minkowski complex is given by those subsets whose Minkowski sum does not contain a fixed basepoint. Every simplicial complex can be realized as…

One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…

It is well known that isoperimetric inequalities imply in a very general measure-metric-space setting appropriate concentration inequalities. The former bound the boundary measure of sets as a function of their measure, whereas the latter…

The isoperimetric problem with a density or weighting seeks to enclose prescribed weighted area with minimum weighted perimeter. According to Chambers' recent proof of the Log Convex Density Conjecture, for many densities on $\mathbb{R}^n$…

We show that for a convex solid set of positive random variables to be tight, or equivalently bounded in probability, it is necessary and sufficient that it is radially bounded, i.e. that every ray passing through one of its elements…
