This note introduces the class of basic $r$-ball polyhedra in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{d}$ for $d>1$ and $r>0$. We investigate their face structure and, for given integers $0\leq i\leq d-1$, $n\geq d+1\geq 3$…

Intersection bodies represent a remarkable class of geometric objects associated with sections of star bodies and invoking Radon transforms, generalized cosine transforms, and the relevant Fourier analysis. The main focus of this article is…

A classic theorem of Kazhdan and Margulis states that for any semisimple Lie group without compact factors, there is a positive lower bound on the covolume of lattices. H. C. Wang's subsequent quantitative analysis showed that the…

We have discovered a "little" gap in our proof of the sharp conjecture that in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with volume and perimeter densities $r^m$ and $r^k$, balls about the origin are uniquely isoperimetric if $0 < m \leq k - k/(n+k-1)$, that is, if…

In a compact orbifold, for small prescribed volume, an isoperimetric region is close to a small metric ball; in a Euclidean orbifold, it is a small metric ball.

In this paper, we introduce a notion of the center and radius of a subset A of metric space X. In the Euclidean spaces, this notion can be seen as the extension of the center and radius of open/closed balls. The center and radius of a…

We bound two global invariants of cusped hyperbolic manifolds: the length of the shortest closed geodesic (the systole), and the radius of the biggest embedded ball (the inradius). We give an upper bound for the systole, expressed in terms…

A theorem of W. Derrick ensures that the volume of any Riemannian cube $([0,1]^n,g)$ is bounded below by the product of the distances between opposite codimension-1 faces. In this paper, we establish a discrete analog of Derrick's…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which slides freely in a ball. Let $K^{(n)}$ denote the intersection of $n$ closed half-spaces containing $K$ whose bounding hyperplanes are independent and identically distributed according to a…

We derive lower estimates for the approximation of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean ball by polytopes with a fixed number of $k$-dimensional faces, $k\in\{0,1,\ldots,d-1\}$. The metrics considered include the intrinsic volume difference and…

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…

We prove a limit theorem for the the maximal interpoint distance (also called the diameter) for a sample of n i.i.d. points in the unit ball of dimension 2 or more. The exact form of the limit distribution and the required normalisation are…

We study the isoperimetric problem for Euclidean space endowed with a continuous density. In dimension one, we characterize isoperimetric regions for a unimodal density. In higher dimensions, we prove existence results and we derive…

We consider the problem of a cylindrical (quasi-two-dimensional) droplet impacting on a hard surface. Cylindrical droplet impact can be engineered in the laboratory, and a theoretical model of the system can also be used to shed light on…

We prove bounds for the covering numbers of classes of convex functions and convex sets in Euclidean space. Previous results require the underlying convex functions or sets to be uniformly bounded. We relax this assumption and replace it…

This thesis consists of five papers about reduced spherical convex bodies and in particular spherical bodies of constant width on the $d$-dimensional sphere $S^d$. In paper I we present some facts describing the shape of reduced bodies of…

If $(M^n, g)$ is a closed Riemannian manifold where every unit ball has volume at most $\epsilon_n$ (a sufficiently small constant), then the $(n-1)$-dimensional Uryson width of $(M^n, g)$ is at most 1.

We prove a sharp bound for the remainder term of the number of lattice points inside a ball, when averaging over a compact set of (not necessarily unimodular) lattices, in dimensions two and three. We also prove that such a bound cannot…

Gr\"unbaum's inequality guarantees that the centroid of a convex body has halfspace depth at least $1/e$: every halfspace containing the centroid captures at least a $1/e$ fraction of the body's volume. For mixed-integer convex sets…

We study the dispersion of a point set, a notion closely related to the discrepancy. Given a real $r\in (0,1)$ and an integer $d\geq 2$, let $N(r,d)$ denote the minimum number of points inside the $d$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^d$ such…
