We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

For a convex domain in the standard Euclidean symplectic space which is invariant under a linear anti-symplectic involution $\tau$ we show that its Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacity is equal to the $\tau$-symmetrical symplectic capacity of it.

Volume is a natural measure of complexity of a Riemannian manifold. In this survey, we discuss the results and conjectures concerning n-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds and orbifolds of small volume.

This paper investigates the relationship between the topology of hyperbolizable 3-manifolds M with incompressible boundary and the volume of hyperbolic convex cores homotopy equivalent to M. Specifically, it proves a conjecture of Bonahon…

In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…

We prove packing stability for any closed symplectic manifold with rational cohomology class. This will rely on a general symplectic embedding result for ellipsoids which assumes only that there is no volume obstruction and that the domain…

We consider a compact hyperbolic tetrahedron of a general type. It is a convex hull of four points called vertices in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. It can be determined by the set of six edge lengths up to isometry. For further…

We find an optimal upper bound on the volume of the John ellipsoid of a $k$-dimensional section of the $n$-dimensional cube, and an optimal lower bound on the volume of the L\"owner ellipsoid of a projection of the $n$-dimensional…

We introduce a flow in the space of constant width bodies in three-dimensional Euclidean space that simultaneously increases the volume and decreases the circumradius of the shape as time increases. Starting from any initial constant width…

It is a well-known fact -- which can be shown by elementary calculus -- that the volume of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ decays to zero and simultaneously gets concentrated on the thin shell near the boundary sphere as $n \nearrow…

The celebrated Dvoretzky theorem asserts that every $N$-dimensional convex body admits central sections of dimension $d = \Omega(\log N)$, which is nearly spherical. For many instances of convex bodies, typically unit balls with respect to…

We prove that the metric balls of a Hilbert geometry admit a volume growth at least polynomial of degree their dimension. We also characterise the convex polytopes as those having exactly polynomial volume growth of degree their dimension.

This is the second paper of two in a series under the same title ([CRX]); both study the quantitative volume space form rigidity conjecture: a closed $n$-manifold of Ricci curvature at least $(n-1)H$, $H=\pm 1$ or $0$ is diffeomorphic to a…

We study the infimum of the renormalized volume for convex-cocompact hyperbolic manifolds, as well as describing how a sequence converging to such values behaves. In particular, we show that the renormalized volume is continuous under the…

Recall that a convex body $K$ is in John's position if the unit Euclidean ball is the maximal volume ellipsoid contained in $K$. Approximating convex body in John's position by polytopes we obtain the following results. 1. Let $n>R_n\ge 1$…

The paper characterizes the convex hull of the closure of the cone-volume set $C_\cv(U)$, consisting of all cone-volume vectors of polygons with outer unit normals vectors contained in $U$, for any finite set $U \subseteq \R^2, \pos(U) =…

Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental question in geometry, which has a wide variety of applications. Given a convex body $K$ in $\textbf{R}^d$ for fixed $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating…

In this paper we obtain new obstructions to symplectic embeddings of the four-dimensional polydisk $P(a,1)$ into the ball $B(c)$ for $2\leq a<\frac{\sqrt{7}-1} {\sqrt{7}-2} \approx 2.549$, extending work done by Hind-Lisi and Hutchings.…

It is proved that if $u_1,\ldots, u_n$ are vectors in ${\Bbb R}^k, k\le n, 1 \le p < \infty$ and $$r = ({1\over k} \sum ^n_1 |u_i|^p)^{1\over p}$$ then the volume of the symmetric convex body whose boundary functionals are $\pm u_1,\ldots,…

We consider the Tarski--Bang problem about covering of convex bodies by planks. The results of this kind give a lower bound on the sum of widths of planks (regions between a pair of parallel hyperplanes) covering a given convex body.…
