The center of distances of a metric space $(X,d)$ is the set $C(X)$ of all $t\in \mathbb R^+$ for which the equation $d(x,p)=t$ has a solution for each $p\in X$. We prove the inequality $|C(X)| \le 1 + \lfloor \log_2 n \rfloor$ for all…
The accurate modeling of topology changes remains a significant challenge in geometric Volume of Fluid (VOF) simulations. When using traditional single-plane reconstruction (PLIC), fluid structures smaller than the mesh size cannot be…
We present a construction of graph-directed invariant sets of weak contractions in the sense of Matkowski-Rus on semi-metric spaces. We follow the approach by Bessenyei and P\'enzes, which applies the Kuratowski noncompactness measure…
We characterize the Archimedean solids among the convex uniform polyhedra via face embeddings into a regular Tetrahedron. This result has been listed without proof in the literature.
We show that if a proper, geodesically complete, CAT(0) homology manifold is quasi-isometric to the Euclidean space R^n then it is homeomorphic to R^n. On the other hand, we show that there exist proper, geodesically complete, CAT(0) spaces…
A variable line through the centroid G of a triangle divides the triangle into two parts each of whose lengths as a fraction of the perimeter fills a closed interval [m,1-m], with m between 0 and 1/2. We show that the range of m taken over…
We prove the local logarithmic Brunn-Minkowski inequality for bodies of revolution. Furthermore, we give a generalization for one origin symmetric body of revolution and one body of revolution that does not need to be symmetric and restrict…
We prove that any convex body in the plane can be partitioned into $m$ convex parts of equal areas and perimeters for any integer $m\ge 2$; this result was previously known for prime powers $m=p^k$. We also discuss possible…
Hanika, Schneider, and Stumme introduced geometric data set as a generalization of metric measure space for the computation of the observable diameter, and extended the observable distance between metric measure spaces to that between…
For a two-dimensional convex body, the Kovner-Besicovitch measure of symmetry is defined as the volume ratio of the largest centrally symmetric body contained inside the body to the original body. A classical result states that the…
We consider random polytopes in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space that are the convex hulls i.i.d. random points selected according to beta-prime distributions. These distributions are rotationally symmetric, heavy-tailed, and their…
We prove that any convex flat subset in a complete Euclidean building is contained in an apartment of the maximal system of apartments.
The metric complexity (sometimes called Leinster--Cobbold maximum diversity) of a compact metric space is a recently introduced isometry-invariant of compact metric spaces which generalizes the notion of cardinality, and can be thought of…
We prove that the kissing numbers in 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 dimensions are at least 5730, 7654, 11692, 19448, and 29768, respectively. The previous records were set by Leech in 1967, and we improve on them by 384, 256, 1024, 2048, and 2048.…
We study the connection between the concavity properties of a measure $\nu$ and the convexity properties of the associated relative entropy $D(\cdot \Vert \nu)$ along optimal transport. As a corollary we prove a new dimensional…
We show that for every complete metric space $M$ there exists another complete metric space $N$ of the same density character such that the curve-flat quotient of $N$ is isometric to $M$. Moreover, we show that if $M$ is compact and…
We prove that the kissing number in 19 dimensions is at least 11948, improving the bound of Cohn and Li by 256. By the odd-sign construction of Cohn and Li, it is enough to find a binary code of length 19 and minimum distance 5 inside the…
We prove sphere packing density bounds in hyperbolic space (and more generally irreducible symmetric spaces of noncompact type), which were conjectured by Cohn and Zhao and generalize Euclidean bounds by Cohn and Elkies. We work within the…
We prove two conjectures posed in 2016 concerning a generalization of the Sawayama-Th\'ebault Theorem and the Sawayama Lemma. We show that this generalized statement can be viewed in Laguerre geometry, which provides a natural framework for…
We determine certain Banach-Mazur distances involving $\ell_p$-direct sums of finite-dimensional real normed spaces and related cone constructions of convex bodies. Using a recent characterization of the optimal Banach-Mazur position with…
