Triangulations of convex surfaces
Let $M$ be a smooth closed positively curved surface in Euclidean 3-space, $T$ be a geodesic triangulation of $M$, and $E$ be the edge graph of the convex hull of vertices of $T$.
It is easy to see ...

What is the maximal convex hull in $\mathbb R^3$ of a tree with fixed total length?
Denote by $\mathcal T_n$ the set of all trees on $n$ nodes. For a tree $T\in\mathcal T_n$, we assign to each edge a non-negative length such that the sum of all lengths is 1. Denote by $v(T)$ the ...

Maximizing the minimum curvature of a convex shape with a given volume in higher dimensions
Given any $d$-dimensional convex shape $S$ in the Euclidean space with $d\gg 1$, let $K_{\min}(S)$ be the minimum value of the Gaussian curvature of its boundary.
Question: What is the maximum value $...

Number of lattice points in a structural symmetric convex body
Let $f$ is a convex symmetric function on the interval $[-a,a]$, i.e., $f(-x)=f(x)$ for $\forall \, x\in [-a,a]$. Then we consider a $n$-dimensional convex body in Euclidean space
\begin{equation}
