In this paper we solve several reverse isoperimetric problems in the class of $\lambda$-convex bodies, i.e., convex bodies whose curvature at each point of their boundary is bounded below by some $\lambda > 0$. We give an affirmative answer…

We define a metric in the space of positive finite positive measures that extends the 2-Wasserstein metric, i.e. its restriction to the set of probability measures is the 2-Wasserstein metric. We prove a dual and a dynamic formulation and…

We derive upper and lower bounds on the sum of distances of a spherical code of size $N$ in $n$ dimensions when $N\sim n^\alpha, 0<\alpha\le 2.$ The bounds are derived by specializing recent general, universal bounds on energy of spherical…

We show that in a locally compact complete $CAT(0)$ space satisfying positive angles property and a disintegration regularity for its canonical Hausdorff measure, there exists a unique optimal transport map that push-forwards a given…

For a bounded metric space X, we define a metric on the set of all finite subsets of X. This generalizes the sequence-subset distance introduced by Wentu Song, Kui Cai and Kees A. Schouhamer Immink to study error correcting codes for DNA…

In this paper we prove that generic metric spaces are everywhere dense in the proper class of all metric spaces endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance.

We characterize rotation equivariant bounded linear operators from $C(\mathbb{S}^{n-1})$ to $C^2(\mathbb{S}^{n-1})$ by the mass distribution of the spherical Laplacian of their kernel function on small polar caps. Using this…

It is shown that, for any function $g$ that is weakly increasing on compact convex sets and has the property that if $\lambda\ge 0$ and $K^\prime$ is a translate of $\lambda K$ then $g(K^\prime) =\lambda g(K)$, then for any covering…

In an attempt to develop higher-dimensional quasiconformal mappings on metric measure spaces with curvature conditions, i.e. from Ahlfors to Alexsandrov, we show that a non-collapsed $\mathrm{RCD}(0,n)$ space ($n\geq2$) with Euclidean…

We show that every $3$-dimensional convex body can be covered by $14$ smaller homothetic copies. The previous result was $16$ copies established by Papadoperakis in 1999, while a conjecture by Hadwiger is $8$. We modify Papadoperakis's…

The Sausage Catastrophe of J. Wills (1983) is the observation that in $d=3$ and $d=4$, the densest packing of $n$ spheres in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ is a sausage for small values of $n$ and jumps to a full-dimensional packing for large $n$ without…

We consider the construction of a family $\{K_N\}$ of $3$-dimensional Koch-type surfaces, with a corresponding family of $3$-dimensional Koch-type ``snowflake analogues" $\{\mathcal{C}_N\}$, where $N>1$ are integers with $N \not\equiv 0…

We provide general estimates which compare the quermassintegrals of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with the averages of the corresponding quermassintegrals of the $k$-codimensional sections of $K$ over $G_{n,n-k}$. An example is the…

The concept of $n$-distance was recently introduced to generalize the classical definition of distance to functions of $n$ arguments. In this paper we investigate this concept through a number of examples based on certain geometrical…

In this article we study the Hofer geometry of a compact Lie group $K$ which acts by Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on a symplectic manifold $M$. Generalized Hofer norms on the Lie algebra of $K$ are introduced and analyzed with tools from…

We give a short and elementary proof of the fact that every metric space of finite asymptotic dimension can be embedded into a finite product of trees.

This article describes a structure that metric spaces can be equipped with so that they resemble normed vector spaces and examines necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such a structure on a general metric space.

In this paper, we investigate some polynomial conditions that arise from Euclidean geometry. First we study polynomials related to quadrilaterals with supplementary angles, this includes convex cyclic quadrilaterals, as well as certain…

We study extensions of sets and functions in general metric measure spaces. We show that an open set has the strong BV extension property if and only if it has the strong extension property for sets of finite perimeter. We also prove…

We study subspace concentration of dual curvature measures of convex bodies $K$ satisfying $\gamma (-K)\subseteq K$ for some $\gamma \in (0,1]$. We present upper bounds on the subspace concentration depending on $\gamma$, which, in…
