At a first glance, the problem of illuminating the boundary of a convex body by external light sources and the problem of covering a convex body by its smaller positive homothetic copies appear to be quite different. They are in fact two…

We define a one parameter family of positions of a convex body which interpolates between the John position and the Loewner position: for $r>0$, we say that $K$ is in maximal intersection position of radius $r$ if $\textrm{Vol}_{n}(K\cap…

In data analysis, there is a strong demand for graph metrics that differ from the classical shortest path and resistance distances. Recently, several new classes of graph metrics have been proposed. This paper presents some of them…

We discuss a new pseudometric on the space of all norms on a finite-dimensional vector space (or free module) $\mathbb{F}^k$, with $\mathbb{F}$ the real, complex, or quaternion numbers. This metric arises from the Lipschitz-equivalence of…

We answer a question of David Hilbert: given two circles it is not possible in general to construct their centers using only a straightedge. On the other hand, we give infinitely many families of pairs of circles for which such construction…

The moving sofa problem, posed by L. Moser in 1966, asks for the planar shape of maximal area that can move around a right-angled corner in a hallway of unit width. It is known that a maximal area shape exists, and that its area is at least…

We extend to arbitrary finite $n$ the notion of immobilization of a convex body $O$ in $R^n$ by a finite set of points $P$ in the boundary of $O$. Because of its importance for this problem, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for…

Given a metric measure space $(X,d,\mathfrak{m})$ that satisfies the Riemannian Curvature Dimension condition, $RCD^*(K,N),$ and a compact subgroup of isometries $G \leq Iso(X)$ we prove that there exists a $G-$invariant measure,…

We prove that if $(X,\mathsf d,\mathfrak m)$ is an essentially non-branching metric measure space with $\mathfrak m(X)=1$, having Ricci curvature bounded from below by $K$ and dimension bounded from above by $N \in (1,\infty)$, understood…

The notion of the metric measure foliation is introduced by Galaz-Garc\'ia, Kell, Mondino, and Sosa. They studied the relation between a metric measure space with a metric measure foliation and its quotient space. They showed that the…

The Besicovitch covering property (BCP) is known to be one of the fundamental tools in measure theory, and more generally, a usefull property for numerous purposes in analysis and geometry. We prove both sufficient and necessary criteria…

In this paper we compute the discrete fundamental groups of warped cones. As an immediate consequence, this allows us to show that there exist coarsely simply-connected expanders and superexpanders. This also provides a strong coarse…

A covering problem posed by Henri Lebesgue in 1914 seeks to find the convex shape of smallest area that contains a subset congruent to any point set of unit diameter in the Euclidean plane. Methods used previously to construct such a…

We introduce the notion of controlled products on metric spaces as a generalization of Gromov products, and construct boundaries by using controlled products, which we call the Gromov boundaries. It is shown that the Gromov boundary with…

We introduce the notion of (hybrid) large scale normal space and prove coarse geometric analogues of Urysohn's Lemma and the Tietze Extension Theorem for these spaces, where continuous maps are replaced by (continuous and) slowly…

A general approach to compute the spherical measure of submanifolds in homogeneous groups is provided. We focus our attention on the homogeneous tangent space, that is a suitable weighted algebraic expansion of the submanifold. This space…

The Heisenberg groups are examples of sub-Riemannian manifolds homeomorphic, but not diffeomorphic to the Euclidean space. Their metric is derived from curves which are only allowed to move in so-called horizontal directions. We report on…

First non-zero Neumann eigenvalues of a rectangle and a parallelogram with the same base and area are compared in case when the height of the parallelogram is greater than the base. This result is applied to compare first non-zero Neumann…

We have introduce a new vision of stochastic processes through the geometry induced by the dilation. The dilation matrices of a given processes are obtained by a composition of rotations matrices, contain the measure information in a…

We classify all edge-to-edge spherical isohedral 4-gonal tilings such that the skeletons are pseudo-double wheels. For this, we characterize these spherical tilings by a quadratic equation for the cosine of an edge-length. By the…
