In geometry, there are several challenging problems studying numbers associated to convex bodies. For example, the packing density problem, the kissing number problem, the covering density problem, the packing-covering constant problem,…

We consider polyhedral approximations of strictly convex compacta in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces (such compacta are also uniformly convex). We obtain the best possible estimates for errors of considered approximations in the…

In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…

We give a new combinatorial proof for the number of convex polyominoes whose minimum enclosing rectangle has given dimensions. We also count the subclass of these polyominoes that contain the lower left corner of the enclosing rectangle…

For closed and oriented hyperbolic surfaces, a formula of Witten establishes an equality between two volume forms on the space of representations of the surface in a semisimple Lie group. One of the forms is a Reidemeister torsion, the…

We give a formula in terms of multidimensional resultants for an equation for the flex locus of a projective hypersurface, generalizing a classical result of Salmon for surfaces. Using this formula, we compute the dimension of this flex…

The notion of ball convexity, considered in finite dimensional real Banach spaces, is a natural and useful extension of usual convexity; one replaces intersections of half-spaces by suitable intersections of balls. A subset $S$ of a normed…

Consider the Poincare disc model for hyperbolic geometry. In this paper, a convenient computational formula is developed along with an aesthetic geometric interpretation. Two proofs, one geometric and one analytical, of each result are…

A ball polyhedron is a finite intersection of congruent balls in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These shapes arise in various contexts in discrete and convex geometry. We focus on Reuleaux polyhedra, the subclass of ball polyhedra whose centers and…

This paper contains a number of results related to volumes of projective perturbations of convex bodies and the Laplace transform on convex cones. First, it is shown that a sharp version of Bourgain's slicing conjecture implies the Mahler…

We prove several estimates for the moments of arbitrary measures on convex bodies. We apply these estimates to show a new slicing inequality for measures on convex bodies. We also deduce estimates for the outer volume ratio distance from an…

Quickly convergent series are given to compute polyzeta numbers. The formula involves an intricate combination of (generalized) polylogarithms at 1/2. However, the combinatorics has a very simple geometric interpretation: it corresponds…

We consider a smooth Euclidean solid cone endowed with a smooth homogeneous density function used to weight Euclidean volume and hypersurface area. By assuming convexity of the cone and a curvature-dimension condition we prove that the…

We describe the structure of the singular sets of constant curvature, convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space for general convex curvature functions. We apply this result to the study of the ideal Plateau problem in hyperbolic space for…

Let $K$ be a convex body in Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^d$, and let a translation invariant, locally finite Borel measure on the space of hyperplanes in ${\mathbb R}^d$ be given. For $\delta\ge 0$, we consider the set of all points $x$ for…

Intrinsic volumes are fundamental geometric invariants generalizing volume, surface area, and mean width for convex bodies. We establish a unified Laplace-Grassmannian representation for intrinsic and dual volumes of convex polynomial…

For a convex body on the Euclidean unit sphere the spherical convex floating body is introduced. The asymptotic behavior of the volume difference of a spherical convex body and its spherical floating body is investigated. This gives rise to…

For convex partitions of a convex body $B$ we prove that we can put a homothetic copy of $B$ into each set of the partition so that the sum of homothety coefficients is $\ge 1$. In the plane the partition may be arbitrary, while in higher…

We utilize ideal bipyramids to obtain new upper bounds on volume for hyperbolic link complements in terms of the combinatorics of their projections.

We consider convex, spacelike hypersurfaces with boundaries on some hyperboloid (or lightcone) in the Minkowski space. If the hypersurface has constant higher order mean curvature, and the angle between the normal vectors of the…
