The convex floating body.

open access: yesMATHEMATICA SCANDINAVICA, 1990
There are several ways to generalize the classical concept of affine surface area of a sufficiently smooth convex body \(K\) in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) due to Blaschke to arbitrary convex bodies [see \textit{K. Leichtweiss}, Manuscr. Math. 56, 429-464 (1986; Zbl 0588.52011), \textit{E. Lutwak}, Adv. Math. 85, No. 1, 39-68 (1991; Zbl 0727.53016) and \textit{C.

Complete spherical convex bodies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geometry, 2020
AbstractSimilarly to the classic notion in Euclidean space, we call a set on the sphere $$S^d$$ S d complete, provided adding any extra point increases its diameter. Complete sets are convex bodies on $$S^d$$ S d . Our main theorem says that on $$S^d$$ S d complete bodies of diameter $$\delta $$ δ coincide with bodies of constant width ...

Order Types of Convex Bodies [PDF]

open access: yesOrder, 2010
We give new bounds on the Erdos-Szekeres theorems for convex bodies of Bisztriczky and Fejes Toth and of Pach and Toth. We derive them from a combinatorial characterization of convex position of a family of planar convex bodies. This characterization confirms that the concept of Order Type for points can be extended to noncrossing families of convex ...

Floating and Illumination Bodies for Polytopes: Duality results

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2019
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.

Shadows of Convex Bodies [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1991
It is proved that if C C is a convex body in R n {\mathbb {R}^n} then C C has an affine image C ~ \tilde C (of nonzero volume) so that if P P is any 1 1 ...

Covariogram of non-convex sets

open access: yes, 2010
The covariogram of a compact set A contained in R^n is the function that to each x in R^n associates the volume of A intersected with (A+x). Recently it has been proved that the covariogram determines any planar convex body, in the class of all convex ...

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Polytopes and $C^1$-convex bodies [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2014
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 ...
