The lower dimensional Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in R^n with smaller volume of all k-dimensional sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is negative for k>3. The problem is still open for…

We study the problem of approximating the cone of positive semidefinite (PSD) matrices with a cone that can be described by smaller-sized PSD constraints. Specifically, we ask the question: "how closely can we approximate the set of…

We display four approximation theorems for manifold-valued mappings. The first one approximates holomorphic embeddings on pseudoconvex domains in $\Bbb C^n$ with holomorphic embeddings with dense images. The second theorem approximates…

We study a general smallest intersecting ball problem and its soft-margin variant in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces for input objects that are compact and convex. These two problems link and unify a series of fundamental problems in…

Let $C$ be a proper convex cone generated by a compact set which supports a measure $\mu$. A construction due to A.Barvinok, E.Veomett and J.B. Lasserre produces, using $\mu$, a sequence $(P_k)_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ of nested spectrahedral…

The badly approximable points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are those for which Dirichlet's approximation theorem cannot be improved by more than a constant, that is, they are the points most difficult to approximate by rational vectors. An important…

The simplex method in Linear Programming motivates several problems of asymptotic convex geometry. We discuss some conjectures and known results in two related directions -- computing the size of projections of high dimensional polytopes…

We consider the following Bezout inequality for mixed volumes: $$V(K_1,\dots,K_r,\Delta[{n-r}])V_n(\Delta)^{r-1}\leq \prod_{i=1}^r V(K_i,\Delta[{n-1}])\ \text{ for }2\leq r\leq n.$$ It was shown previously that the inequality is true for…

The class of convex sets that admit approximations as Minkowski sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone in the Hausdorff distance is introduced. These sets are called approximately Motzkin-decomposable and generalize the notion…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $ C$ such that for every $ n \geq 2 $ and $ N\geq 10^n, $ there exists a polytope $ P_{n,N} \subset \mathbb{R}^n $ with at most $ N $ facets that satisfies…

A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ sides are unknown when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we propose an approach to construct convex small $n$-gons of…

The X-ray numbers of some classes of convex bodies are investigated. In particular, we give a proof of the X-ray Conjecture as well as of the Illumination Conjecture for almost smooth convex bodies of any dimension and for convex bodies of…

The Generalized Lax Conjecture asks whether every hyperbolicity cone is a section of a semidefinite cone of sufficiently high dimension. We prove that the space of hyperbolicity cones of hyperbolic polynomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables…

The diameter of a polytope is a fundamental geometric parameter that plays a crucial role in understanding the efficiency of the simplex method. Despite its central nature, the computational complexity of computing the diameter of a given…

We begin by proving a few general facts about Simson polygons, defined as polygons which admit a pedal line. We use an inductive argument to show that no convex $n$-gon, $n\geq5$, admits a Simson Line. We then determine a property which…

In this note we consider two topics involving the relationship between the symplectic capacity and the mean width of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. We first describe an alternative path from the symplectic Brunn-Minkowski inequality of…

In this short note, we show that the inradius of a convex body is comparable to its volume divided by its surface area. We also give a simple formula, in terms of its volume and inradius, that is comparable to the volume of its intersection…

The main objective of this article is to provide an alternative approach to the central result of [Eldred, A. Anthony, Kirk, W. A., Veeramani, P., Proximal normal structure and relatively nonexpansive mappings, Studia Math., vol 171(3),…

Extending results of Suss and Hadwiger (proved by them for the case of convex bodies and positive ratios), we show that compact (respectively, closed) convex sets in the Euclidean space of dimension n are homothetic provided for any given…

Let $X$ be a projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold. We associate with any big $\mathbf{R}$-divisor $D$ on $X$ a convex polygon $\Delta_E^{\mathrm{num}}(D)$ of dimension 2, whose Euclidean volume is…
