"The 400-year-old Kepler conjecture asserts that no packing of congruent balls in three dimensions can have a density exceeding the familiar pyramid-shaped cannonball arrangement. In this book, a new proof of the conjecture is presented that makes it accessible for the first tim…
"In 1982, R. Hamilton introduced a nonlinear evolution equation for Riemannian metrics with the aim of finding canonical metrics on manifolds. This evolution equation is known as the Ricci flow, and it has since been used widely and with great success, most notably in Perelman's…
This volume presents a self-contained introduction to the theory of minisum hyperspheres. The minisum hypersphere problem is a generalization of the famous Fermat-Torricelli problem. The problem asks for a hypersphere minimizing the weighted sum of distances to a given point set…
