We give a complete characterization of compact sets with positive reach (=proximally $C^1$ sets) in the plane and of one-dimensional sets with positive reach in ${\mathbb R}^d$. Further, we prove that if $\emptyset \neq A\subset{\mathbb…
The main result of the article is a complete characterization of the local structure of two-dimensional sets with positive reach in $R^d$. We also present a more elementary proof of a recent result of A. Lytchak which describes for $k\leq…
We provide new structural results on sets of positive reach in Euclidean spaces and Riemannian manifolds.
This article deals with the existence of hypersurfaces minimizing general shape functionals under certain geometric constraints. We consider as admissible shapes orientable hypersurfaces satisfying a so-called reach condition, also known as…
Let an $R$-body be the complement of the union of open balls of radius $R$ in $\mathbb{E}^d$. The $R$-hulloid of a closed not empty set $A$, the minimal $R$-body containing $A$, is investigated; if $A$ is the set of the vertices of a…
Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and mean convex boundary $\partial M$. Assume that the mean curvature $H$ of the boundary $\partial M$ satisfies $H \geq (n-1) k >0$ for some positive…
This paper contains two results on the dimension and smoothness of radial projections of sets and measures in Euclidean spaces. To introduce the first one, assume that $E,K \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ are non-empty Borel sets with…
For a compact set $E \subset \mathbb R^d$ and a connected graph $G$ on $k+1$ vertices, we define a $G$-framework to be a collection of $k+1$ points in $E$ such that the distance between a pair of points is specified if the corresponding…
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb{R} ^d$, with $d = 2,3$. We determine sharp sufficient conditions for a set $E$ composed of $1$, $2$, or $3$ points of ${\rm bd}K$, to contain at least one endpoint of a diameter of $K$ (for $d=2,3$). We…
Let $M$ be a smooth, connected, compact submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$ without boundary and of dimension $k\geq 2$. Let $\mathbb{S}^k \subset \mathbb{R}^{k+1}\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ denote the $k$-dimesnional unit sphere. We show if $M$ has…
In this note we prove the existence of a set $E_0\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, different from a ball, which minimizes, among the convex sets that satisfy a suitable interior cone condition, the ratio \begin{equation} \label{eq:0}…
We prove a fractional Helly theorem for $k$-flats intersecting fat convex sets. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is said to be $\rho$-fat if every set in the family contains a ball and is contained in a ball such that the ratio of the radii…
In this paper we prove the existence of H\"{o}lder continuous terminal embeddings of any desired $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ with $m=\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-2}\omega(S_X)^2)$, for arbitrarily small distortion…
The convexity of a set can be generalized to the two weaker notions of reach and $r$-convexity; both describe the regularity of a set's boundary. For any compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$, we provide methods for computing upper bounds on…
Let $(X, d)$ be an ultrametric space and let $d_H$ be the Hausdorff distance on the set $\bar{\mathbf{B}}_X$ of all closed balls in $(X, d)$. Some interconnections between the properties of the spaces $(X, d)$ and $(\bar{\mathbf{B}}_X,…
The study of shape restrictions of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ have several applications in many areas, being convexity, $r$-convexity, and positive reach, some of the most famous, and typically imposed in set estimation. The following…
Defining the $m$-th stratum of a closed subset of an $n$ dimensional Euclidean space to consist of those points, where it can be touched by a ball from at least $n-m$ linearly independent directions, we establish that the $m$-th stratum is…
We say that $E$ is a microset of the compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ if there exist sequences $\lambda_n\geq 1$ and $u_n\in \mathbb{R}^d$ such that $(\lambda_n K + u_n ) \cap [0,1]^d$ converges to $E$ in the Hausdorff metric, and…
Suppose that $K \subseteq \RR^d$ is a 0-symmetric convex body which defines the usual norm $$ \Norm{x}_K = \sup\Set{t\ge 0: x \notin tK} $$ on $\RR^d$. Let also $A\subseteq\RR^d$ be a measurable set of positive upper density $\rho$. We show…
We study similarity classes of point configurations in $\R^d$. Given a finite collection of points, a well-known question is: How high does the Hausdorff dimension $\hd(E)$ of a compact set $E \subset {\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, need to be to…
