In 1960 Gr\"unbaum asked whether for any finite mass in $\mathbb{R}^d$ there are $d$ hyperplanes that cut it into $2^d$ equal parts. This was proved by Hadwiger (1966) for $d\le3$, but disproved by Avis (1984) for $d\ge5$, while the case…

We give an improved upper bound for the Gr\"unbaum--Hadwiger--Ramos problem: Let $d,n,k \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $d \geq 2^n(1+2^{k-1})$. Given $2^{n+1}$ masses on $\mathbb{R}^d$, there exist $k$ hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that…

In this paper, motivated by recent work of Schnider and Axelrod-Freed \& Sober\'on, we study an extension of the classical Gr\"unbaum--Hadwiger--Ramos mass partition problem to mass assignments. Using the Fadell--Husseini index theory we…

We give a proof of the result of Edgar Ramos which claims that two finite, continuous Borel measures $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ defined on $\mathbb{R}^5$ admit an equipartition by a collection of three hyperplanes. Our proof illuminates one of the…

One of our result is that 5 measurable sets in $R^8$ always admit an equipartition by 2 hyperplanes. This is an instance of a general equipartition problem (formulated by B. Gr{\" u}nbaum and H. Hadwiger) which can be reduced to the…

Gr\"unbaum's equipartition problem asked if for any measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ there are always $d$ hyperplanes which divide $\mathbb{R}^d$ into $2^d$ $\mu$-equal parts. This problem is known to have a positive answer for $d\le 3$ and…

While equivariant methods have seen many fruitful applications in geometric combinatorics, their inability to answer the now settled Topological Tverberg Conjecture has made apparent the need to move beyond the use of Borsuk--Ulam type…

\noindent The simultaneous partition problems are classical problems of the combinatorial geometry which have the natural flavor of the equivariant topology. The $k$-fan partition problems have attracted a lot of attention \cite{Aki2000},…

The classical Ham Sandwich theorem states that any $d$ point sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be simultaneously bisected by a single affine hyperplane. A generalization of Dolnikov asserts that any $d$ families of pairwise intersecting compact,…

We compute a primary cohomological obstruction to the existence of an equipartition for j mass distributions in R^d by two hyperplanes in the case 2d-3j = 1. The central new result is that such an equipartition always exists if d=6 2^k +2…

We prove a common generalization to several mass partition results using hyperplane arrangements to split $\mathbb{R}^d$ into two sets. Our main result implies the ham-sandwich theorem, the necklace splitting theorem for two thieves, a…

We established a hyperplane restriction theorem for the local holomorphic mappings between projective spaces, which is inspired by the corresponding theorem of Green for homogeneous ideals in polynomial rings. Our theorem allows us to give…

A classical inequality by Gr\"unbaum provides a sharp lower bound for the ratio $\mathrm{vol}(K^{-})/\mathrm{vol}(K)$, where $K^{-}$ denotes the intersection of a convex body with non-empty interior $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with a halfspace…

Given a finite group $G$ and two unitary $G$-representations $V$ and $W$, possible restrictions on Brouwer degrees of equivariant maps between representation spheres $S(V)$ and $S(W)$ are usually expressed in a form of congruences modulo…

We introduce a notion of halfspace for Hadamard manifolds that is natural in the context of convex optimization. For this notion of halfspace, we generalize a classic result of Gr\"unbaum, which itself is a corollary of Helly's theorem.…

Gr\"unbaum's inequality gives sharp bounds between the volume of a convex body and its part cut off by a hyperplane through the centroid of the body. We provide a generalization of this inequality for hyperplanes that do not necessarily…

We describe a regular cell complex model for the configuration space F(\R^d,n). Based on this, we use Equivariant Obstruction Theory to prove the prime power case of the conjecture by Nandakumar and Ramana Rao that every polygon can be…

We compute the complete Fadell-Husseini index of the 8 element dihedral group D_8 acting on S^d \times S^d, both for F_2 and for integer coefficients. This establishes the complete goup cohomology lower bounds for the two hyperplane case of…

A union of an arrangement of affine hyperplanes $H$ in $R^d$ is the real algebraic variety associated to the principal ideal generated by the polynomial $p_{H}$ given as the product of the degree one polynomials which define the hyperplanes…

In this paper, we generalize classic mass partition results dealing with partitions using spheres, parallel hyperplanes, or axis-parallel wedges to the setting of mass assignments. In a mass assignment problem, we assign mass distributions…
