We show \begin{align*} \frac{ \int_{E \cap \theta^+} f(x) dx }{ \int_E f(x) dx } \geq \left(\frac{k \gamma+1}{(n+1) \gamma+1}\right)^{\frac{k \gamma+1}{\gamma}} \end{align*} for all $k$-dimensional subspaces $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$,…
Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be independent random points that are distributed according to a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $P_n$ be the random convex hull generated by $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ ($n\geq d+1$). Natural classes of probability…
Short and transparent proofs of central limit theorems for intrinsic volumes of random polytopes in smooth convex bodies are presented. They combine different tools such as estimates for floating bodies with Stein's method from probability…
We provide a definition of a new critical exponent $\beta$ that has the interpretation of a type of local walk dimension, and may be defined on any compact metric space. We then specialize to the case of random walks that jump uniformly in…
It is well known that the vertices of any Euclidean simplicial regular polytope determine an optimal packing of equal spherical balls. We prove a stability version of optimal order of this result.
We show that every finite-dimensional Alexandrov space X with curvature bounded from below embeds canonically into a product of an Alexandrov space with the same curvature bound and a Euclidean space such that each affine function on X…
This work is related to billiards and their applications in geometric optics. It is known that perfectly invisible bodies with mirror surface do not exist. It is natural to search for bodies that are, in a sense, close to invisible. We…
Let $K$ be a convex body in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb R^2$. We say that a point set $X \subseteq \mathbb R^2$ satsfies the property $T(K)$ if the family of translates $\{ K + x : x \in X \}$ has a line transversal. A weaker property,…
We consider congruences of straight lines in a plane with the combinatorics of the square grid, with all elementary quadrilaterals possessing an incircle. It is shown that all the vertices of such nets (we call them incircular or IC-nets)…
We investigate critical exponents relating to weak capacity in Ahlfors regular metric measure spaces. This allows a proof of a weak capacity version of a result by Bonk and Kleiner about the uniformization of metric $2$-spheres. Using our…
In the present paper we investigate the properties of the Hausdorff mapping $\mathcal{H}$, which takes each compact metric space to the space of its nonempty closed subspaces. It is shown that this mapping is nonexpanding (Lipschitz mapping…
We combine conditions found in [Wh] with results from [MPR] to show that quasi-isometries between uniformly discrete bounded geometry spaces that satisfy linear isoperimetric inequalities are within bounded distance to bilipschitz…
Let $C$ be the unit circle in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We can view $C$ as a plane graph whose vertices are all the points on $C$, and the distance between any two points on $C$ is the length of the smaller arc between them. We consider a graph…
We consider a large class of geodesic metric spaces, including Banach spaces, hyperbolic spaces and geodesic $\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa)$-spaces, and investigate the space of nonexpansive mappings on either a convex or a star-shaped subset in…
We study global maxima of distance functions on most Alexandrov surfaces with curvature bounded below, where "most" is used in the sense of Baire categories.
In this paper we discuss Chasles's construction on ellipsoid to draw the semi-axes from a complete system of conjugate diameters. We prove that there is such situation when the construction is not planar (the needed points cannot be…
We introduce a geometric property complementary-finite asymptotic dimension (coas- dim). Similar with asymptotic dimension, we prove the corresponding coarse invariant theorem, union theorem and Hurewicz-type theorem.
In previous papers by A. Kameyama and by J. Kigami distances on fractals have been discussed having two different but similar properties. One property is that the maps defining the fractal are Lipschitz of prescribed constants less than 1,…
We prove a sharp inequality between the Blaschke and Hilbert distance on a proper convex domain: for any two points $x$ and $y$, \[d^B(x,y) < d^H(x,y) +1.\] We obtain two interesting consequences: the first one is the volume entropy…
It was conjectured by Levi, Hadwiger, Gohberg and Markus that the boundary of any convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ can be illuminated by at most $2^n$ light sources, and, moreover, $2^n-1$ light sources suffice unless the body is a…
