The construction of an unbounded polyhedron from a "jagged'' convex cap is described, and several of its properties discussed, including its relation to Alexandrov's "limit angle."

In this paper, we first introduce the quermassintegrals for convex hypersurfaces with capillary boundary in the unit Euclidean ball $\mathbb{B}^{n+1}$ and derive its first variational formula. Then by using a locally constrained nonlinear…

We give a new proof of a classical uniqueness theorem of Alexandrov using the weak uniqueness continuation theorem of Bers-Nirenberg. We prove a version of this theorem with the minimal regularity assumption: the spherical hessians of the…

We derive a generalized Stokes' theorem, valid in any dimension and for arbitrary loops, even if self intersecting or knotted. The generalized theorem does not involve an auxiliary surface, but inherits a higher rank gauge symmetry from the…

Let $E\subset \mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$, be a set of finite perimeter with $|E|=|B|$, where $B$ denotes the unit ball. When $n=2$, since convexification decreases perimeter (in the class of open connected sets), it is easy to prove the…

Recently we generalized Toponogov's comparison theorem to a complete Riemannian manifold with smooth convex boundary, where a geodesic triangle was replaced by an open (geodesic) triangle standing on the boundary of the manifold, and a…

This paper is devoted to prove that if an Alexandrov space of curvature not less than $\kappa$ with a codimension one extremal subset which admits an isometric involution with respect to the induced length metric, then the metric space…

The classical Alexandrov estimate controls the oscillation of a convex function by the mass of its associated Monge-Amp\`ere measure and yields, for two convex functions of $n$ variables with the same boundary values, a sup-norm bound with…

We prove that any metric of non-positive curvature in the sense of Alexandrov on a compact surface can be isometrically embedded as a convex spacelike Cauchy surface in a flat spacetime of dimension (2+1). The proof follows from polyhedral…

Two basic theorems of the theory of flexible polyhedra were proven by completely different methods: R. Alexander used analysis, namely, the Stokes theorem, to prove that the total mean curvature remains constant during the flex, while I.Kh.…

The rigidity theorems of Alexandrov (1950) and Stoker (1968) are classical results in the theory of convex polyhedra. In this paper we prove analogues of them for normal (resp., standard) ball-polyhedra. Here, a ball-polyhedron means an…

Alexandrov's estimate states that if $\Omega$ is a bounded open convex domain in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and $u:\bar \Omega\to {\mathbb R}$ is a convex solution of the Monge-Ampere equation $\det D^2 u = f$ that vanishes on $\partial \Omega$, then…

Volume computation for $d$-polytopes $\mathcal{P}$ is fundamental in mathematics. There are known volume computation algorithms, mostly based on triangulation or signed-decomposition of $\mathcal{P}$. We consider $…
