Extremal Convex Sets for Sylvester-busemann Type Functionals
The Sylvester (d + 2)-points problem deals with the probability S(K) that d + 2 random points taken from a convex compact subset K of Rd are not the vertices of any convex polytope and asks for which sets S(K) is minimal or maximal. While it is known that ellipsoids are the only minimizers of S(K), the problem of the maximum is still open, unless d = 2. In this paper we study generalizations of...
متن کاملSymmetry of convex sets and its applications to the extremal ellipsoids of convex bodies
A convex body K in R has around it a unique circumscribed ellipsoid CE(K) with minimum volume, and within it a unique inscribed ellipsoid IE(K) with maximum volume. The modern theory of these ellipsoids is pioneered by Fritz John in his seminal 1948 paper. This paper has two, related goals. First, we investigate the symmetry properties of a convex body by studying its (affine) automorphism grou...
متن کاملWell-positioned Closed Convex Sets and Well-positioned Closed Convex Functions
Closed convex sets for which the barrier cone has a nonempty interior, as well as proper extended-values real functionals for which the domain of their Fenchel conjugate is nonempty, are mathematical objects currently encountered in various areas of optimization theory and variational analysis (see for instance the class of well-behaved functions introduced by Auslender and Crouzeix in [5]). Th...
متن کاملExtremal problems for convex polygons
Consider a convex polygon Vn with n sides, perimeter Pn, diameter Dn, area An, sum of distances between vertices Sn and widthWn. Minimizing or maximizing any of these quantities while fixing another defines ten pairs of extremal polygon problems (one of which usually has a trivial solution or no solution at all). We survey research on these problems, which uses geometrical reasoning increasingl...
متن کاملSingularity Structure in Mean Curvature Flow of Mean Convex Sets
In this note we announce results on the mean curvature flow of mean convex sets in 3-dimensions. Loosely speaking, our results justify the naive picture of mean curvature flow where the only singularities are neck pinches, and components which collapse to asymptotically round spheres. In this note we announce results on the mean curvature flow of mean convex sets; all the statements below have ...
