Ellipses surrounding convex bodies
If, for a double normal xx* of a convex body K, an ellipse E ∋ x, x* is included in K, we say that E is surrounded by the boundary of K. If, instead, in the plane of E, K is included in the convex hull of E, then we say that E is surrounding K.

RECTILINEAR AND BROWNIAN MOTION FROM A RANDOM POINT IN A CONVEX REGION
A particle is projected from a point P in a subset E of a convex region H to a point Q in a uniformly random direction. The probability that Q lies in the interior of H at time t is obtained for two types of motion of the particle, rectilinear (i.e ...

Reduced spherical convex bodies [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to present some properties of reduced spherical convex bodies on the two-dimensional sphere $S^2$. The intersection of two different non-opposite hemispheres is called a lune. By its thickness we mean the distance of the centers of the two semicircles bounding it.

CONVEX BODIES AND GAUSSIAN PROCESSES
For several decades, the topics of the title have had a fruitful interaction. This survey will describe some of these connections, including the GB/GC classification of convex bodies, Ito-Nisio singularities from a geometric viewpoint, Gaussian ...

On the volume of sections of a convex body by cones [PDF]
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$. We prove that in small codimensions, the sections of a convex body through the centroid are quite symmetric with respect to volume.

Covering the Boundary of Special Convex Bodies with Smaller Homothetic Copies
For Hadwiger conjecture that the least number c(K) of translates of the interior of K needed to cover K is at most 2n, according to the fact that c(K) equals the least number of smaller homothetic copies of K with the same homothetic ratio needed to ...

COMPARATIVE PRECISION OF THE PIVOTAL ESTIMATORS OF PARTICLE SIZE
The pivotal estimators of the surface area and the volume of a generic "particle" are based on a point sampled test line on an isotropic pivotal plane through a fixed point called the pivotal point.

Correspondences between convex geometry and complex geometry [PDF]
We present several analogies between convex geometry and the theory of holomorphic line bundles on smooth projective varieties or K\"ahler manifolds. We study the relation between positive products and mixed volumes.

Banach–Mazur Distance Between Convex Quadrangles
It is proved that the Banach-Mazur distance between arbitrary two convex quadrangles is at most 2. The distance equals 2 if and only if the pair of these quadrangles is a parallelogram and a triangle.
