Given a convex disk $K$ and a positive integer $k$, let $\delta_T^k(K)$ and $\delta_L^k(K)$ denote the $k$-fold translative packing density and the $k$-fold lattice packing density of $K$, respectively. Let $T$ be a triangle. In a very…

Given a convex disk $K$ and a positive integer $j$, let $\delta_L^j(K)$ and $\vartheta_L^j(K)$ denote the $j$-fold lattice packing density and the $j$-fold lattice covering density of $K$, respectively. I will prove that for every triangle…

It is well known that the lattice packing density and the lattice covering density of a triangle are $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{3}{2}$ respectively. We also know that the lattices that attain these densities both are unique. Let…

It is conjectured that for every convex disks K, the translative covering density of K and the lattice covering density of K are identical. It is well known that this conjecture is true for every centrally symmetric convex disks. For the…

For every convex disk $K$ (a convex compact subset of the plane, with non-void interior), the packing density $\delta(K)$ and covering density $\vartheta(K)$ form an ordered pair of real numbers, {\em i.e.}, a point in ${\mathbb R}^2$. The…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$, let $L$ be a lattice with covolume one, and let $\eta>0$. We say that $K$ and $L$ form an $\eta$-smooth cover if each point $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ is covered by $(1 \pm \eta) vol(K)$ translates of…

It has been known for almost 200 years that some angles cannot be trisected by straightedge and compass alone. This paper studies the set of such angles as well as its complement $\mathcal{T}$, both regarded as subsets of the unit circle…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. We denote the volume of $K$ by $Vol(K)$ and the diameter of $K$ by $Diam(K).$ In this paper we prove that there exists a linear bijection $T:\mathbb{R}^{3}\to \mathbb{R}^{3}$ such that…

We prove that octants are cover-decomposable into multiple coverings, i.e., for any k there is an m(k) such that any m(k)-fold covering of any subset of the space with a finite number of translates of a given octant can be decomposed into k…

Let $K$ be a convex body. It is known that, in general, if $K$ is a $k$-fold translative tile (for some positive integer $k$), then $K$ may not be a (onefold) translative tile. However, in this paper I will show that for every convex body…

We survey results on the problem of covering the space ${\mathbb R}^n$, or a convex body in it, by translates of a convex body. Our main goal is to present a diverse set of methods. A theorem of Rogers is a central result, according to…

We obtain new upper bounds on the minimal density of lattice coverings of Euclidean space by dilates of a convex body K. We also obtain bounds on the probability (with respect to the natural Haar-Siegel measure on the space of lattices)…

We consider four problems. Rogers proved that for any convex body $K$, we can cover ${\mathbb R}^d$ by translates of $K$ of density very roughly $d\ln d$. First, we extend this result by showing that, if we are given a family of positive…

This work revolves around the two following questions: Given a convex body $C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a positive integer $k$ and a finite set $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ (or a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$), how many homothets of $C$…

This paper uses results on the classification of minimal triangulations of 3-manifolds to produce additional results, using covering spaces. Using previous work on minimal triangulations of lens spaces, it is shown that the lens space…

Let $(L, h)\to (X, \omega)$ denote a polarized toric K\"ahler manifold. Fix a toric submanifold $Y$ and denote by $\hat{\rho}_{tk}:X\to \mathbb{R}$ the partial density function corresponding to the partial Bergman kernel projecting smooth…

The aim of this paper is to study lattice-like coverings with congruent translation balls and the packings and coverings with a type of translation cylinders in Sol space related to the fundamental lattices. We introduce the notions of the…

A rational triangle $T$ (one whose angles are rational multiples of $\pi$) unfolds to a translation surface $(X_T,\omega_T)$. The lattice triangle problem asks to classify those $T$ for which $(X_T,\omega_T)$ is a Veech (lattice) surface,…

A tiling of the sphere by triangles, squares, or hexagons is convex if every vertex has at most 6, 4, or 3 polygons adjacent to it, respectively. Assigning an appropriate weight to any tiling, our main result is explicit formulas for the…

This article considers the relation between the spanning properties of lattice orbits of discrete series representations and the associated lattice co-volume. The focus is on the density theorem, which provides a trichotomy characterizing…
