A convex body $R$ in $\mathbb R^d$ is called reduced if the minimal width $\Delta(R')$ of each convex body $R'\subset R$ different from $R$ is strictly smaller than the minimal width $\Delta(R)$ of $R$. In this article we construct a…

Let $d \geq 0$ be an integer and let $P \subset \mathbb R^d$ be a $d$-dimensional lattice polytope. We call a polytope $M \subset \mathbb R^d$ such that $M \subset P$ and $M \sim P$ a {\itshape miniature} of $P,$ and it is said to be…

A classical consequence of the John Ellipsoid Theorem is the upper bound $\sqrt{n}$ on the Banach-Mazur distance between the Euclidean ball and any symmetric convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Equality is attained for the parallelotope and the…

In this paper, we define lower dimensional volumes of spin manifolds with boundary. We compute the lower dimensional volume ${\rm Vol}^{(2,2)}$ for 5-dimensional and 6-dimensional spin manifolds with boundary and we also get the…

In this article we prove a conjecture of Bezdek, Brass, and Harborth concerning the maximum volume of the convex hull of any facet-to-facet connected system of n unit hypercubes in the d-dimensional Euclidean space. For d=2 we enumerate the…

The collection of all $n$-point metric spaces of diameter $\le 1$ constitutes a polytope $\mathcal{M}_n \subset \mathbb{R}^{\binom{n}{2}}$, called the \emph{Metric Polytope}. In this paper, we consider the best approximations of…

For every large enough $n$, we explicitly construct a body of constant width $2$ that has volume less than $0.9^n \text{Vol}(\mathbb{B}^{n}$), where $\mathbb{B}^{n}$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. This answers a question of…

The isodiametric inequality states that the Euclidean ball maximizes the volume among all convex bodies of a given diameter. We are motivated by a conjecture of Makai Jr.~on the reverse question: Every convex body has a linear image whose…

We develop a method for studying the pointed loop space of general polyhedral products, showing that many properties are determined by the moment-angle complex. To apply the method, we show that localised away from a finite set of primes,…

For any given finite group, Schulte and Williams (2015) establish the existence of a convex polytope whose combinatorial automorphisms form a group isomorphic to the given group. We provide here a shorter proof for a stronger result: the…

Let Z be an Alexandrov space with curvature bounded below by -1 such that Z is homotopy equivalent to a real hyperbolic manifold M. It is known that the volume of Z is not smaller than the volume of M. If the volumes are equal, this short…

Under certain hypotheses on the Banach space $X$, we show that the set of $N$-homogeneous polynomials from $X$ to any dual space, whose Aron-Berner extensions are norm attaining, is dense in the space of all continuous $N$-homogeneous…

H. Hotelling proved that in the n-dimensional Euclidean or spherical space, the volume of a tube of small radius about a curve depends only on the length of the curve and the radius. A. Gray and L. Vanhecke extended Hotelling's theorem to…

We prove several estimates for the volume, mean width, and the value of the Wills functional of sections of convex bodies in John's position, as well as for their polar bodies. These estimates extend some well-known results for convex…

The Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a polyhedron (a union of finitely many compact convex polytopes) in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space expresses the Euler characteristic of the polyhedron as a sum of certain curvatures, which are different from…

The main result of this paper is a characterization of the minimal surface hull of a compact set $K$ in $\mathbb R^3$ by sequences of conformal minimal discs whose boundaries converge to $K$ in the measure theoretic sense, and also by…

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…

We show that the cone-volume measure of a convex body with centroid at the origin satisfies the subspace concentration condition. This implies, among others, a conjectured best possible inequality for the $\mathrm{U}$-functional of a convex…

We prove that every Riemannian metric on the 2-disc such that all its geodesics are minimal, is a minimal filling of its boundary (within the class of fillings homeomorphic to the disc). This improves an earlier result of the author by…

It is proved that the linearity of metric projections on subspaces and the convexity of the polars of the convex cones in the uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space are equivalent, and both of them is equivalent with the fact…
