A classical result of Dowker (Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 50: 120-122, 1944) states that for any plane convex body $K$ in the Euclidean plane, the areas of the maximum (resp. minimum) area convex $n$-gons inscribed (resp. circumscribed) in $K$…

In this work we prove the following: let $K$ be a convex body in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 3$, contained in the interior of the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and let $p\in \mathbb{R}^n$ be a point such that, from each point…

In connection with an unsolved problem of Bang (1951) we give a lower bound for the sum of the base volumes of cylinders covering a d-dimensional convex body in terms of the relevant basic measures of the given convex body. As an…

We show that, for any prime power p^k and any convex body K (i.e., a compact convex set with interior) in Rd, there exists a partition of K into p^k convex sets with equal volume and equal surface area. We derive this result from a more…

Let ${\mathbb E}^d$ denote the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. The $r$-ball body generated by a given set in ${\mathbb E}^d$ is the intersection of balls of radius $r$ centered at the points of the given set. In this paper we prove the…

We prove a generalization of the hyperplane inequality for intersection bodies, where volume is replaced by an arbitrary measure $\mu$ with even continuous density and sections are of arbitrary dimension $n-k,\ 1\le k <n.$ If $K$ is a…

We prove that the maximal development of any spherically symmetric spacetime with collisionless matter (obeying the Vlasov equation) or a massless scalar field (obeying the massless wave equation) and possessing a constant mean curvature…

In this work we prove that either a sequence of axes of symmetry or a sequence of hyperplanes of symmetry of a convex body $K$ in the Euclidean space $E^d, d>2$, are enough to guarantee that $K$ is a generalized body of revolution (and in…

The largest volume ratio of given convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is defined as $$\mbox{lvr}(K):= \sup_{L \subset \mathbb{R}^n} \mbox{vr}(K,L),$$ where the $\sup$ runs over all the convex bodies $L$. We prove the following sharp lower…

Let $\Omega$ be a measurable Euclidean set in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ that is symmetric, i.e. $\Omega=-\Omega$, such that $\Omega\times\mathbb{R}$ has the smallest Gaussian surface area among all measurable symmetric sets of fixed Gaussian volume.…

Let $M^d$ denote the $d$-dimensional Euclidean, hyperbolic, or spherical space. The $r$-dual set of given set in $M^d$ is the intersection of balls of radii $r$ centered at the points of the given set. In this paper we prove that for any…

For a convex body $K\subset\R^n$ and $i\in\{1,...,n-1\}$, the function assigning to any $i$-dimensional subspace $L$ of $\R^n$, the $i$-dimensional volume of the orthogonal projection of $K$ to $L$, is called the $i$-th projection function…

We prove the following Helly-type result. Let $\mathcal{C}_1,\dots,\mathcal{C}_{3d}$ be finite families of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Assume that for any colorful selection of $2d$ sets, $C_{i_k}\in \mathcal{C}_{i_k}$ for each $1\leq…

Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental question in geometry, which has a wide variety of applications. Given a convex body $K$ in $\textbf{R}^d$ for fixed $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating…

We study the volume ratio between projections of two convex bodies. Given a high-dimensional convex body $K$ we show that there is another convex body $L$ such that the volume ratio between any two projections of fixed rank of the bodies…

We consider the following measure of symmetry of a convex n-dimensional body K: $\rho(K)$ is the smallest constant for which there is a point x in K such that for partitions of K by an n-1-dimensional hyperplane passing through x the ratio…

In this note we examine the volume of the convex hull of two congruent copies of a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space, under some subsets of the isometry group of the space. We prove inequalities for this volume if the two bodies are…

Let $K \subset \mathbb R^n$ be a convex body with barycenter at the origin. We show there is a simplex $S \subset K$ having also barycenter at the origin such that $\left(\frac{vol(S)}{vol(K)}\right)^{1/n} \geq \frac{c}{\sqrt{n}},$ where…

A classical result of Dowker (Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 50: 120-122, 1944) states that for any plane convex body $K$, the areas of the maximum (resp. minimum) area convex $n$-gons inscribed (resp. circumscribed) in $K$ is a concave (resp.…

We determine the homeomorphism type of the hyperspace of positively curved $C^\infty$ convex bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, and derive various properties of its quotient by the group of Euclidean isometries. We make a systematic study of…
