Random Symmetrizations of Convex Bodies [PDF]
In this paper we investigate the asymptotic behavior of sequences of successive Steiner and Minkowski symmetrizations. We state an equivalence result between the convergences of those sequences for Minkowski and Steiner symmetrizations. Moreover, in the case of independent (and not necessarily identically distributed) directions, we prove the almost ...

In recent years, numerous scholars have investigated the relationship between symmetry and generalized convexity. Due to this close relationship, generalized convexity and symmetry have become new areas of study in the field of inequalities.

Competitively Chasing Convex Bodies [PDF]
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of sets in some metric space. In the $\mathcal{F}$-chasing problem, an online algorithm observes a request sequence of sets in $\mathcal{F}$ and responds (online) by giving a sequence of points in these sets. The movement cost is the distance between consecutive such points.

Polytopes and $C^1$-convex bodies [PDF]
The face numbers of simplicial polytopes that approximate $C^1$-convex bodies in the Hausdorff metric is studied. Several structural results about the skeleta of such polytopes are studied and used to derive a lower bound theorem for this class of ...

Existence and Approximation of Densities of Chord Length- and Cross Section Area Distributions
In various stereological problems a n-dimensional convex body is intersected with an (n−1)-dimensional Isotropic Uniformly Random (IUR) hyperplane. In this paper the cumulative distribution function associated with the (n−1)-dimensional volume of such a ...

Convex Bodies with Few Faces [PDF]
It is proved that if $u_1,\ldots, u_n$ are vectors in ${\Bbb R}^k, k\le n, 1 \le p < \infty$ and $$r = ({1\over k} \sum ^n_1 |u_i|^p)^{1\over p}$$ then the volume of the symmetric convex body whose boundary functionals are $\pm u_1,\ldots, \pm u_n$, is bounded from below as $$|\{ x\in {\Bbb R}^k\colon \ |\langle x,u_i\rangle | \le 1 \ \hbox{for ...

Polar Duals of Convex Bodies [PDF]
A generalizationand the dual version of the following result due to Firey is given: the mixed area of a plane convex body and its polar dual is at least π. We give a sharp upper bound for the product of the dual cross-sectional measure of any index and that of its polar dual.

Floating and Illumination Bodies for Polytopes: Duality results
Floating and illumination bodies for polytopes: duality results, Discrete Analysis 2019:11, 22 pp. A well-known concept in convex geometry is that of the _floating body_ of a convex body, which is defined as follows.
