This paper proves a curvature entropy inequality for non-symmetric convex bodies.

Study shows non-symmetric convex sets have full boundary limits.

A method to generalize results from Riemannian Geometry to Finsler geometry is presented. We use the method to generalize several results that involve only metric conditions. Between them we show that the topology induced by the Finsler structure is equivalent to the manifold topology, we provide a new proof of the Hop…

New illumination bodies defined for ball-convex shapes, proving convexity and establishing surface area measures.

Adapting the method of Andrews-Clutterbuck we prove an eigenvalue gap theorem for a class of non symmetric second order linear elliptic operators on a convex domain in euclidean space. The class of operators includes the Bakry-Emery laplacian with potential and any operator with second order term the laplacian whose fi…

New index characterizes non-smooth Zoll convex bodies.

We introduce and study a new class of $\eps$-convex bodies (extending the class of convex bodies) in metric and normed linear spaces. We analyze relations between characteristic properties of convex bodies, demonstrate how $\eps$-convex bodies connect with some classical results of Convex Geometry, as Helly theorem, an…

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 a new spherical area measure, the floating area. Remarkably, this floating area…

A Minkowski class is a closed subset of the space of convex bodies in Euclidean space Rn which is closed under Minkowski addition and non-negative dilatations. A convex body in Rn is universal if the expansion of its support function in spherical harmonics contains non-zero harmonics of all orders. If K is universal, t…

The Gauss curvature measure of a pointed Euclidean convex body is a measure on the unit sphere which extends the notion of Gauss curvature to non-smooth bodies. Alexandrov's problem consists in finding a convex body with given curvature measure. In Euclidean space, A.D. Alexandrov gave a necessary and sufficient condit…

We determine the homeomorphism type of the hyperspace of positively curved $C^\infty$ convex bodies in $\mathbb R^n$, and derive various properties of its quotient by the group of Euclidean isometries. We make a systematic study of hyperspaces of convex bodies that are at least $C^1$. We show how to destroy the symmetr…

We introduce and study \textrm{circular projections} in normed linear spaces and classes of bodies related with families of such maps, in particular, \textrm{$k$-circular convex} and \textrm{$k$-circular visible} ones. Investigati…

New theorem proves convex bodies with specific curvature measures are rescaled Wulff shapes.

Solves Christoffel-Minkowski problem for capillary convex bodies in Euclidean half-space.

In 1926 S. Nakajima (= A. Matsumura) showed that any convex body in $\R^3$ with constant width, constant brightness, and boundary of class $C^2$ is a ball. We show that the regularity assumption on the boundary is unnecessary, so that balls are the only convex bodies of constant width and brightness.

New proof of log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality for zonoids and convex bodies.

Analogues of the classical inequalities from the Brunn-Minkowski theory for rotation intertwining additive maps of convex bodies are developed. Analogues are also proved of inequalities from the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory for intertwining additive maps of star bodies. These inequalities provide generalizations of resu…

The hyperbolic space $ \H^d$ can be defined as a pseudo-sphere in the $(d+1)$ Minkowski space-time. In this paper, a Fuchsian group $Γ$ is a group of linear isometries of the Minkowski space such that $\H^d/Γ$ is a compact manifold. We introduce Fuchsian convex bodies, which are closed convex sets in Minkowski space, g…

On a convex body in a Euclidean space, we introduce a new variational formulation for its Funk metric, a Finsler metric compatible with the tautological Finsler structure of the convex body. We generalize the metric on Teichmuller spaces with the Weil-Petersson distance function. A set of similarities the resulting met…

New algorithm uniformly samples high-dimensional convex bodies efficiently.

We investigate weighted floating bodies of polytopes. We show that the weighted volume depends on the complete flags of the polytope. This connection is obtained by introducing flag simplices, which translate between the metric and combinatorial structure. Our results are applied in spherical and hyperbolic space. This…

Rotation intertwining maps from the set of convex bodies in Rn into itself that are continuous linear operators with respect to Minkowski and Blaschke addition are investigated. The main focus is on Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphisms. We show that such maps are represented by a spherical convolution operator. An applicat…

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold and $V_1,\ldots,V_n\subset C^\infty(X,\mathbb R)$ finite-dimensional vector spaces. For systems of equations $\{f_i = a_i\colon\: f_i\in V_i,\:a_i \in\mathbb R,\:i=1,\ldots,n\}$ we discover a relationship between the average number of their solutions and mixed volumes of convex bo…

We first propose the homogeneous Orlicz affine and geominimal surface areas, and establish their basic properties such as homogeneity, affine invariance and affine isoperimetric inequalities. We also prove that the homogeneous geominimal surface areas are continuous, …

By means of a stability version of the Blaschke-Santaló inequality, we obtain regularity of the solutions provided that initial convex bodies have almost maximum Mahler volume. We prove that suitab…
