An approach is developed to find approximate solutions to the classical Newtonian problem of N bodies. Sets of N gravitating bodies having spherically symmetric mass distributions, small angular velocities (< 1 rad/s) and bounded position…

Dual to Koldobsky's notion of j-intersection bodies, the class of j-projection bodies is introduced, generalizing Minkowski's classical notion of projection bodies of convex bodies. A Fourier analytic characterization of j-projection bodies…

We present an explicit calculation of an Okounkov body associated to an algebraic variety. This is used to derive a formula for transfinite diameter on the variety. We relate this formula to a recent result of D. Witt Nystrom.

Toric orbifolds are a topological generalization of projective toric varieties associated to simplicial fans. We introduce some sufficient conditions on the combinatorial data associated to a toric orbifold to ensure the existence of an…

We compute the K-theory of complex projective spaces. There are three major ingredients: the exact sequence of K-groups, the theory of Chern character and the Bott Periodicity Theorem.

We prove matching direct and inverse theorems for (algebraic) polynomial approximation with doubling weights $w$ having finitely many zeros and singularities (i.e., points where $w$ becomes infinite) on an interval and not too ``rapidly…

Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…

We prove the existence of quasi-Jacobi form solutions for an analogue of the Kaneko--Zagier differential equation for Jacobi forms. The transformation properties of the solutions under the Jacobi group are derived. A special feature of the…

We consider spacelike surfaces in the four-dimensional Minkowski space and introduce geometrically an invariant linear map of Weingarten-type in the tangent plane at any point of the surface under consideration. This allows us to introduce…

The Newton--Okounkov body of a big divisor D on a smooth surface is a numerical invariant in the form of a convex polygon. We study the geometric significance of the shape of Newton--Okounkov polygons of ample divisors, showing that they…

Starting from the data of a big line bundle $L$ on a projective manifold $X$ with a choice of $N\geq 1$ different points on $X$ we provide a new construction of $N$ Okounkov bodies which encodes important geometric features of ($L\to…

Some diophantine aspects of projective toric varieties: We present several faces of projective toric varieties, of interest from the point of view of diophantine geometry. We make explicit the theory on a number of meaningful examples and…

We consider several differential-topological invariants of compact 4-manifolds which directly arise from Riemannian variational problems. Using recent results of Bauer and Furuta, we compute these invariants in many cases that were…

The objective of this paper is to present two types of results on Minkowski sums of convex polytopes. The first is about a special class of polytopes we call perfectly centered and the combinatorial properties of the Minkowski sum with…

The aim of this paper is to study the Okounkov bodies associated to abundant divisors. As a main result, we prove that the valuative Okounkov bodies of an abundant divisor encode all the numerical properties. We apply this result to recover…

We first prove some basic properties of Okounkov bodies, and give a characterization of Nakayama and positive volume subvarieties of a pseudoeffective divisor in terms of Okounkov bodies. Next, we show that each valuative and limiting…

Ball quotients, hyperelliptic varieties, and projective spaces are characterized by their Chern classes, as the varieties where the Miyaoka-Yau inequality becomes an equality. Ball quotients, Abelian varieties, and projective spaces are…

An Okounkov body is a convex subset in Euclidean space associated to a big divisor on a smooth projective variety with respect to an admissible flag. In this paper, we introduce two convex bodies associated to pseudoeffective divisors,…

In this paper, we study on three kinds of spacelike helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski $4$--space. First, we give an isometry between such helicoidal surfaces and rotational surfaces which is a kind of generalization of Bour theorem in…

This text is a draft of the review paper on projectively dual varieties. Topics include dual varieties, Pyasetskii pairing, discriminant complexes, resultants and schemes of zeros, secant and tangential varieties, Ein theorems, applications…
