We prove an analogue of the classical Steiner formula for the $L_p$ affine surface area of a Minkowski outer parallel body for any real parameters $p$. We show that the classical Steiner formula and the Steiner formula of Lutwak's dual Brunn Minkowski theory are special cases of this new Steiner formula. This new Stein…

New proof of isoperimetric inequality using Steiner's formula.

A Steiner type formula for continuous translation invariant Minkowski valuations is established. In combination with a recent result on the symmetry of rigid motion invariant homogeneous bivaluations, this new Steiner type formula is used to obtain a family of Brunn-Minkowski type inequalities for rigid motion intertwi…

The paper defines conic reach and shows polynomial parallel volume in the plane.

We give new characterisations of sets of positive reach and show that a closed hypersurface has positive reach if and only if it is of class $C^{1,1}$. These results are then used to prove new alternating Steiner formulæ for hypersurfaces of positive reach. Furthermore, it will turn out that every hypersurface that sat…

Solves Minkowski problem for affine invariant convex domains.

We show that the discrete principal nets in quadrics of constant curvature that have constant mixed area mean curvature can be characterized by the existence of a Königs dual in a concentric quadric.

In this paper, a new approach of defining Steiner symmetrization of coercive convex functions is proposed and some fundamental properties of the new Steiner symmetrization are proved. Further, using the new Steiner symmetrization, we give a different approach to prove a functional version of the Blaschke-Santalo inequa…

A Steiner deltoid maintains constant area across all boundary points of an ellipse.

We study circle packings with the combinatorics of a triangulated disk in the plane and parametrize deformations of circle packings in terms of vertex rotation and cross ratios. We show that there is a Weierstrass representation formula relating infinitesimal deformations of circle packings to discrete minimal surfaces…

Infinite fractal tree solves shortest connection problem.

A Steiner chain of length k consists of k circles, tangent to two given non-intersecting circles (the parent circles) and tangent to each other in a cyclic pattern. The Steiner porism states that once a chain of k circles exists, there exists a 1-parameter family of such chains with the same parent circles that can be …

We provide very general symmetrization theorems in arbitrary dimension and codimension, in products, warped products, and certain fiber bundles such as lens spaces, including Steiner, Schwarz, and spherical symmetrization and admitting density.

The paper studies stability of discrete planar curves using variational methods.

We use a Riemannnian approximation scheme to define a notion of $\textit{sub-Riemannian Gaussian curvature}$ for a Euclidean $C^{2}$-smooth surface in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ away from characteristic points, and a notion of $\textit{sub-Riemannian signed geodesic curvature}$ for Euclidean $C^{2}$-smooth curve…

We consider the existence problem for `Steiner networks' (trivalent graphs with 120 degree angles at each junction) in strictly convex domains, with `Neumann' boundary conditions (orthogonal intersection with the domain boundary.) For each of the three possible combinatorial possibilities, sufficient conditions on the …

There is a one-to-one correspondence between geometric lattices and the intersection lattices of arrangements of homotopy spheres. When the arrangements are essential and fully partitioned, Zaslavsky's enumeration of the cells of the arrangement still holds. An application of the theory shows that all minimal cellular …

Study on $L_p$ affine surface areas and their inequalities for convex bodies.

Classical integral geometry takes place in Euclidean space, but one can attempt to imitate it in any other metric space. In particular, one can attempt this in R^n equipped with the metric derived from the p-norm. This has, in effect, been investigated intensively for 1<p<\infty, but not for p=1. We show that integral …

The paper extends Busemann's inequalities to complex and quaternionic spaces.

Uniqueness of stable, non-smooth hypersurfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature.

In this paper, using functional Steiner symmetrizations, we show that Meyer and Pajor's proof of the Blaschke-Santalo inequality can be extended to the functional setting.

Paper proposes an algorithm to reconstruct optimal model structure from graph adjacency matrix.

NeuroSteiner uses neural networks to estimate wirelength more efficiently.

Given a simple closed plane curve $Γ$ of length $L$ enclosing a compact convex set $K$ of area $F$, Hurwitz found an upper bound for the isoperimetric deficit, namely $L^2-4πF\leq π|F_{e}|$, where $F_{e}$ is the algebraic area enclosed by the evolute of $Γ$. In this note we improve this inequality finding strictly posi…

New curvature measures characterize non-convex Wulff shapes in normed spaces.

This paper corrects an error in [Keller-Ressel, M. and Steiner T. "Yield curve shapes and the asymptotic short rate distribution in affine one-factor models." Finance and Stochastics 12.2 (2008): 149-172]. The error concerns the correct expression for the boundary between normal and humped yield curve behavior in affin…

We study a problem of geometric graph theory: We determine the triply periodic graph in Euclidean 3-space which minimizes length among all graphs spanning a fundamental domain of 3-space with the same volume. The minimizer is the so-called srs network with quotient the complete graph on four vertices $K_4$. The network…

We establish a new symmetrization procedure for the isoperimetric problem in symmetric spaces of noncompact type. This symmetrization generalizes the well known Steiner symmetrization in euclidean space. In contrast to the classical construction the symmetrized domain is obtained by solving a nonlinear elliptic equatio…

We prove that the curvature flow of an embedded planar network of three curves connected through a triple junction, with fixed endpoints on the boundary of a given strictly convex domain, exists smooth until the lengths of the three curves stay far from zero. If this is the case for all times, then the evolution exists…

In this article, we will discuss the smooth $(X_{M}+\sqrt{-1}Y_{M})$-invariant forms on $M$ and to establish a localization formulas. As an application, we get a localization formulas for characteristic numbers.

Holomorphic residue formula for complex supermanifolds.

We prove a localization formula for group-valued equivariant de Rham cohomology of a compact G-manifold. This formula is a non-trivial generalization of the localization formula of Berline-Vergne and Atiyah-Bott for the usual equivariant de Rham cohomology. As an application, we obtain a version of the Duistermaat-Heck…

We formulate a conjectural Lefschetz formula for locally symmetric spaces of finite volume. The formula can be verified in the compact case and for Riemann surfaces.

Short proof given for a complex formula in spin manifold geometry.

We provide explicit formulas for integrating multiplicative forms on local Lie groupoids in terms of infinitesimal data. Combined with our previous work [8], which constructs the local Lie groupoid of a Lie algebroid, these formulas produce concrete integrations of several geometric stuctures defined infinitesimally. I…

Pedal curves derived from ellipses are invariant in area.

We prove a localization formula for a "holomorphic equivariant cohomology" attached to the Atiyah algebroid of an equivariant holomorphic vector bundle. This generalizes Feng-Ma, Carrell-Liebermann, Baum-Bott and K. Liu's localization formulas.

In this article we give a totally new proof of the integral localization formula for equivariantly closed differential forms (Theorem 7.11 in [BGV]). We restate it here as Theorem 2. This localization formula is very well known, but the author hopes to adapt this proof to obtain a more general result in the future.

In this paper, we consider three typical problems on a locally finite connected graph. The first one is to study the Bochner formula for the Laplacian operator on a locally finite connected graph. We use the Bochner formula to derive the Bernstein type estimate of the heat equation. The second is to derive the Reilly t…
