Background and motivation: Consider the cone $C\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of vectors with non-negative components, and let $\Delta\subset C$ be the simplex of probability vectors (thos …

The Minkowski-Hlawka theorem (as stated by Gruber in his lovely book Convex and Discrete Geometry) says that if $S$ is a Jordan measurable set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with volume < 1. …

I have two boundaries of two planar polygons , say,B1 and B2 of polygons P1 and P2(with m and n points in Boundaries B1 and B2). I want to find out if the Polygons overlap or not.I …

Let $CH(S)$ be a convex hull of a finite set $S$ and denote the set of all the vertices of $CH(S)$ as $Vert(S)$. For a vertex $v \in Vert(S)$, it has an associated set $E(v)$ which …

Consider an convex plane figure $F$. How to prove that there is an affine transformation $a$ such that $\sqrt{3}$ diameter$(a(F))^2\leq 4$ area$(a(F))$? I found only one reference …

Hi, I need to find the x,y points of intersection of a vertical line with the edges of the Voronoi cells it goes through in a defined, rectangular plane region with a given Vorono …

In its asymmetric version, the Mahler conjecture states that if $K \subset \mathbb{R^n}$ is a convex body containing the origin as an interior point and $$ K^* := \{y \in \mathbb{ …

In 2D perimeter(P) of a convex set around origin may be written as $P=1/2 \int m(\theta) d\theta$. Where $m(\theta)$ is the diameter of the set in the $\theta$ direction. This is r …

Say $K$ is a $n$-dimensional convex subset of $\mathbb R^n$ around the origin. Say we know $Vol_{n - 1}(\pi_{\theta^{\bot}}) K)$ where $\theta^\bot$ is the linear subspace of $\mat …

I have previously asked a similar question, but that turned out to be complicated. Here is a related simpler question. Let $K$ be a convex set around the origin in $\mathbb R^3$. …

We know about the Carathéodory's theorem which is on the convex bodies of $\mathbb{R}^d$. My question is, how far we can extend it? Is it true for say, any convex object of Banach …

Consider a set of $n$ points $x_1,\ldots,x_n \in \mathbb{R}^d$, for some $n \gg d$. Suppose ${x_1,\ldots,x_n} \subset C \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. Say that a set of points $y_1,\ldots, …

Given two $0$-symmetric convex bodies $K \subset L \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, is it true that the Loewner ellipsoid of $K$ is contained in the Loewner ellipsoid of $L$? I have just fi …

Let $X_1, \cdots, X_N$ be i.i.d. $d$-dimensional random vectors, the exact distribution of $X$ is not very important in my application (as long as it continuous) so pick the one th …

Given a star body $S \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with the origin as interior point, the critical determinant of $S$---usually denoted as $\Delta(S)$---is the infimum of the determinants …
