The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr.~on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose…

We study the isoperimetric problem on $\mathbb{R}^1$ with a prescribed density function $f(x) = |x|$. Under these conditions, we find that isoperimetric $3$-bubble and $4$-bubble results satisfy a regular structure. As our regions increase…

The Euclidean concentration inequality states that, among sets with fixed volume, balls have $r$-neighborhoods of minimal volume for every $r>0$. On an arbitrary set, the deviation of this volume growth from that of a ball is shown to…
