The Minkowski problem in convex geometry concerns showing that a given Borel measure on the unit sphere is, up to perhaps a constant, some type of surface area measure of a convex body. Two types of Minkowski problems in particular are an…
Let us consider the set of all joint probabilities generated by local binary measurements on two separated quantum systems of a given local dimension d. We address the question of whether the shape of this quantum body is convex or not. We…
Busemann's intersection inequality gives an upper bound for the volume of the intersection body of a star body in terms of the volume of the body itself. Koldobsky, Paouris, and Zymonopoulou asked if there is a similar result for…
In this paper we deal with problems concerning the volume of the convex hull of two "connecting" bodies. After a historical background we collect some results, methods and open problems, respectively.
In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing area subject to a volume constraint in a given convex set.
Analogues of the classical inequalities from the Brunn-Minkowski theory for rotation intertwining additive maps of convex bodies are developed. Analogues are also proved of inequalities from the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory for intertwining…
The intrinsic volumes are measures of the content of a convex body. This paper uses probabilistic and information-theoretic methods to study the sequence of intrinsic volumes of a convex body. The main result states that the intrinsic…
Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…
We prove Gaussian approximation theorems for specific $k$-dimensional marginals of convex bodies which possess certain symmetries. In particular, we treat bodies which possess a 1-unconditional basis, as well as simplices. Our results…
In this note we examine the volume of the convex hull of two congruent copies of a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space, under some subsets of the isometry group of the space. We prove inequalities for this volume if the two bodies are…
Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…
The concepts of symmetry and its breakdown are investigated in two different terms according to whether the resulting asymmetry is universal or only obtained for a special configuration: we shall illustrate this by considering in the first…
We establish central limit theorems for natural volumes of random inscribed polytopes in projective Riemannian or Finsler geometries. In addition, normal approximation of dual volumes and the mean width of random polyhedral sets are…
Lately, there has been a renewed interest in fermionic 1-body reduced density matrices and their restrictions beyond the Pauli principle. These restrictions are usually quantified using the polytope of allowed, ordered eigenvalues of such…
In this paper we consider the isoperimetric problem with double density in an Euclidean space, that is, we study the minimisation of the perimeter among subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with fixed volume, where volume and perimeter are relative to…
In the paper "Isoperimetry of waists and local versus global asymptotic convex geometries", it was proved that the existence of nicely bounded sections of two symmetric convex bodies K and L implies that the intersection of randomly rotated…
We prove a generalization of the hyperplane inequality for intersection bodies, where volume is replaced by an arbitrary measure $\mu$ with even continuous density and sections are of arbitrary dimension $n-k,\ 1\le k <n.$ If $K$ is a…
The isoperimetric problem asks for the maximum area of a region of given perimeter. It is natural to consider other measurements of a region, such as the diameter and width, and ask for the extreme value of one when another is fixed. The…
Fine-tuning in physics and cosmology is often used as evidence that a theory is incomplete. For example, the parameters of the standard model of particle physics are "unnaturally" small (in various technical senses), which has driven much…
Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…
