Let $C\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex body. We introduce two notions of convexity associated to C. A set $K$ is $C$-ball convex if it is the intersection of translates of $C$, or it is either $\emptyset$, or ${\mathbb R}^n$. The $C$-ball…

We study two notions. One is that of spindle convexity. A set of circumradius not greater than one is spindle convex if, for any pair of its points, it contains every short circular arc of radius at least one, connecting them. The other…

In light of the log-Brunn-Minkowski conjecture, various attempts have been made to define the geometric mean of convex bodies. Many of these constructions are fairly complex and/or fail to satisfy some natural properties one would expect of…

In the present paper, the following convexity principle is proved: any closed convex multifunction, which is metrically regular in a certain uniform sense near a given point, carries small balls centered at that point to convex sets, even…

The Chebyshev set of a bounded set $K$ in a normed space is the set of centers of all minimal enclosing balls of $K$. We use the concept of ball intersection and ball hull operators to derive new properties of Chebyshev sets in normed…

In this survey, we discuss volumetric and combinatorial results concerning (mostly finite) intersections or unions of balls (mostly of equal radii) in the $d$-dimensional real vector space, mostly equipped with the Euclidean norm. Our first…

We investigate elementary properties of successive radii in generalized Minkowski spaces (that is, with respect to gauges), i.e., we measure the "size" of a given convex set in a finite-dimensional real vector space with respect to another…

It is well known that every convex body in a finite dimensional normed space can be uniformly approximated by strictly convex and smooth convex bodies. However, in the case of infinite dimensions, little progress has been made since Klee…

According to a result due to B.T. Polyak, a mapping between Hilbert spaces, which is $C^{1,1}$ around a regular point, carries a ball centered at that point to a convex set, provided that the radius of the ball is small enough. The present…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to spherical, Euclidean and…

We establish a general criterion for the existence of convex sets of fixed shape as, e.g., balls of a given radius, of maximal probability on Banach spaces. We also provide counterexamples showing that their existence my fail even in some…

We study the way in which the Euclidean subspaces of a Banach space fit together, somewhat in the spirit of the Ka\v{s}in decomposition. The main tool that we introduce is an estimate regarding the convex hull of a convex body in John's…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on a separable Banach space $X$. A subset $U\subset X$ is $\mu$-continuous if $\mu(\partial U)=0$. In the paper the $\mu$-continuity and uniform $\mu$-continuity of convex bodies in $X$, especially of…

We consider the covering of a ball in certain normed spaces by its congruent subsets and show that if the finite number of sets is not greater than the dimensionality of the space, then the centre of the ball either belongs to the interior…

We continue to investigate cases when the Repov\v{s}-Semenov splitting problem for selections has an affirmative solution for continuous set-valued mappings. We consider the situation in infinite-dimensional uniformly convex Banach spaces.…

Definition. A symmetric with respect to 0 bounded closed convex set A in a finite dimensional normed space X is called a sufficient enlargement for X (or of B(X)) if for arbitrary isometric embedding of X into a Banach space Y there exists…

For an $(n\ge 2)$-dimensional real Banach space $E$ with unit ball $E_{\le 1}$ and a topological space $X$ arbitrary elements in $C(X,E_{\le 1})$ are always expressible as linear combinations of at most three functions valued in the unit…

A set in the Euclidean plane is said to be biconvex if, for some angle $\theta\in[0,\pi/2)$, all its sections along straight lines with inclination angles $\theta$ and $\theta+\pi/2$ are convex sets (i.e, empty sets or segments).…

Let $E$ be a $(\mathrm{IV})$-polyhedral Banach space. We show that, for each $\epsilon>0$, $E$ admits an $\epsilon$-equivalent $\mathrm{(V)}$-polyhedral norm such that the corresponding closed unit ball is the closed convex hull of its…

A polarity notion for sets in a Banach space is introduced in such a way that the second polar of a set coincides with the smallest strongly convex set with respect to R that contains it. Strongly convex sets are characterized in terms of…
