The union of the particles of a stationary Poisson process of compact (convex) sets in Euclidean space is called Boolean model and is a classical topic of stochastic geometry. In this paper, Boolean models in hyperbolic space are…

We present a framework for modeling complex, high-dimensional distributions on convex polytopes by leveraging recent advances in discrete and continuous normalizing flows on Riemannian manifolds. We show that any full-dimensional polytope…

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 study the properties of the maximal volume $k$-dimensional sections of the $n$-dimensional cube $[-1,1]^n$. We obtain a first order necessary condition for a $k$-dimensional subspace to be a local maximizer of the volume of such…

We briefly introduce several problems: (1) a generalization of the convex fair partition conjecture, (2) on non-trivial invariants among polyhedrons that can be formed from the same set of face polygons, (3) two questions on assembling…

We consider the computation of the volume of the union of high-dimensional geometric objects. While showing that this problem is #P-hard already for very simple bodies (i.e., axis-parallel boxes), we give a fast FPRAS for all objects where…

We survey results concerning sharp estimates on volumes of sections and projections of certain convex bodies, mainly $\ell_p$ balls, by and onto lower dimensional subspaces. This subject emerged from geometry of numbers several decades ago…

Starting from the (apparently) elementary problem of deciding how many different topological spaces can be obtained by gluing together in pairs the faces of an octahedron, we will describe the central role played by hyperbolic geometry…

We provide general inequalities that compare the surface area S(K) of a convex body K in ${\mathbb R}^n$ to the minimal, average or maximal surface area of its hyperplane or lower dimensional projections. We discuss the same questions for…

We establish a monotonicity-type property of volume of central hyperplane sections of the 1-symmetric convex bodies, with applications to chessboard cutting. We parallel this for projections with a new convexity-type property for Rademacher…

We observe that a large part of the volume of a hyperbolic polyhedron is taken by a tubular neighbourhood of its boundary, and use this to give a new proof for the finiteness of arithmetic maximal reflection groups following a recent work…

Motivated by a question of R.\ Nandakumar, we show that the Euclidean plane can be dissected into mutually incongruent convex quadrangles of the same area and the same perimeter. As a byproduct we obtain vertex-to-vertex dissections of the…

This article belongs to the area of geometric tomography, which is the study of geometric properties of solids based on data about their sections and projections. We describe a new direction in geometric tomography where different…

This paper first gives a brief overview over some interesting descriptions of conic sections, showing formulations in the three geometric algebras of Euclidean spaces, projective spaces, and the conformal model of Euclidean space. Second…

We are generalizing to higher dimensions the Bavard-Ghys construction of the hyperbolic metric on the space of polygons with fixed directions of edges. The space of convex d-dimensional polyhedra with fixed directions of facet normals has a…

This paper contains a new concept to measure the width and thickness of a convex body in the hyperbolic plane. We compare the known concepts with the new one and prove some results on bodies of constant width, constant diameter and given…

This is a survey on algorithmic questions about combinatorial and geometric properties of convex polytopes. We give a list of 35 problems; for each the current state of knowledege on its theoretical complexity status is reported. The…

In the first part of this paper, we obtain symmetric formulae for the probabilities that a plane convex body hits exactly 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 triangles of a lattice of congruent triangles in the plane. Furthermore, a very simple formula for…

Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…

We examine volume computation of general-dimensional polytopes and more general convex bodies, defined as the intersection of a simplex by a family of parallel hyperplanes, and another family of parallel hyperplanes or a family of…
